All-Star cleanup fuels debate in Kansas City neighborhoods
Kansas City residents debate the All-Star cleanup amid city efforts to curb blight ahead of the game. City workers demolish 32 homes near ballparks as part of a broader push on roughly 800 dangerous properties, while critics call the work performative for out-of-town visitors. Police prepare a heavy security plan with federal and state help as the RBI tournaments loom. Local leaders praise the effort but residents question timing and motives in the east side ZIP 64130.
