DESCRIPTION:Join us in Kansas City! \nShow-Me Institute Senior Fellow Patrick Tuohey joins Nick Haines from Kansas City PBS at a Town Hall Meeting that promises to be informative and lively! \nOn April 2\, Jackson County voters will be asked to approve a new 3/8 percent sales tax to support “funding for park improvements consisting of Arrowhead Stadium and its surrounds\, and a new Major League Baseball stadium in Jackson County.” \n\nWill the city realize the economic benefits that are being promised for this investment by taxpayers?\nWhat are the pros and cons and the economic risks and returns of subsidizing infrastructure for professional sports franchises?\nWill either team\, or both\, consider relocating if the tax is not extended?\nIf so\, what would that mean for the identity of Kansas City?\n\nThese questions and more will be discussed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for This Free Event Here\nTuesday\, March 19\, 2024 \n5:30 p.m. Reception \n6:00 – 7:00 p.m. Town Hall Meeting \nKansas City Public Library \nTruman Forum Auditorium \n4801 Main Street \nKansas City\, MO 64112 \n  \nPatrick Tuohey is senior fellow at the Show-Me Institute and co-founder and policy director of the Better Cities Project.
