@QuintonLucasKC @kcchamber Economic policy has clear impact on the health of Kansas City's children. Healthier kids come from equitable policies, not from making fancy buildings. @kcpublicschools @MarkBedell_KCPS @KCTenants @KCTIFWatch @KCStar liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.10…

Historic preservation groups and affordable housing advocates are butting heads over a proposal giving tax breaks to build an upscale apartment complex near the iconic Katz Drug Store. kcur.org/news/2021-06-24/dev…
Anyone who is "fine" with giving away 25-years of property taxes knowing that it hurts @kcpublicschools and not the schools in her neighborhood should be voted out of office immediately. Teresa Loar is 2nd District AT-LARGE & she is accountable to the entire city.
