IDK, when you think about it. The only reason the Chiefs want some tax money for the cost of renovation is that Jackson County is the owner of the Truman Sports Complex.
Chiefs will stay at Arrowhead if another tax is approved or if they take over ownership from County at a reasonable price. Chiefs make so much money that they could privately finance and fully own any new stadium if they get a sweetheart deal on land at an ideal location. So for the Chiefs and maybe even for the Royals, the idea will be public should help pay for improvements or construction if the stadium is not owned by team. If public does not want to pitch in on renovations, then give up ownership or team will build new with own money or team will sell a monorail to some rubes elsewhere and county can own a piece of history and figure it out. I think the next vote for Arrowhead could be extend the current tax for the term of the new lease or have County give up ownership of Truman Sports Complex to the teams or one team if the other team does not extend lease. That should be the questions put to voters or elected officials. pitch in if teams are not the owners, or give up ownership if no pitch in on renovations. When you think about it, Royals could build new in Kansas City with TIF and fully own with tax breaks for a long time. The piss and moan about tax breaks to the rich for TIF will sound stupid when the same people campaigned against a proposal to have public pitch in to renovate or build a stadium that the Royals do not own. Chiefs will stay at Arrowhead as owners or with a new Jackson County tax or Kansas City tax if Chiefs are not owners. Royals will build new and get a whole lot more in tax breaks on a stadium and real estate development they fully own than they ever would have gotten from a sales tax to help pay for a publicly owned stadium. |

Good luck trying to delineate between the implications of extending the sales tax to benefit billionaires versus tax breaks which benefit billionaires to thousands of <90 IQs.

I was a STL Ram season ticket holder before they left. The very next year I became a Chiefs season ticket holder. I live 3 1/2 hours from KC. I was shocked how inexpensive it was to be a season ticket holder for the Chiefs. No PSL! I paid 10,000 for 2 seats in STL. Of course that was before Mahomes so there were plenty available. I really hope they get this figured out. Ive experienced a team leaving when a lot of people said they never would. Thanks

It'll be extremely telling if the Chiefs won't engage separately with Jackson County and announce plans elsewhere before giving them a chance.
