Editorials Money reigns and roof tactics for Arrowhead
The piece discusses how Kansas City officials may push taxpayers to fund renovations at the Truman Sports Complex. It questions whether the Chiefs and Royals would relocate if Jackson County voters reject new taxes for stadium upgrades. Promoters won a narrow vote but failed to fund a movable roof. The editorial ponders future tactics to secure approval, considering promises like a Super Bowl, NCAA Final Four, KU football, MU or KU basketball games, and potential collaborations with area universities to host more games at Arrowhead and the downtown arena. It laments changing loyalties and the primacy of dollars over tradition, noting fear tactics and strategic incentives.
