Kansas City bill targets panhandling near roadways
Kansas City councilwoman Teresa Loar introduced a traffic safety ordinance aimed at restricting pedestrians on medians and near ramps to curb panhandling without citing First Amendment conflicts. The measure targets locations along I 35 and I 70, seeks penalties via fines and short jail time, and follows a 2007 aggressive panhandling rule. The transportation committee will hold a public hearing.
