The Stadium Tax Debate: Keeping The Chiefs, Royals At Home Sweet Home

Mar 19, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free
  • « Breakthrough or Setback? Examining the Four-Day School Week in Missouri
  • The Insider’s Hour with Show-Me Institute »
Join us in Kansas City!

Show-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!

On 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.”

  • Will the city realize the economic benefits that are being promised for this investment by taxpayers?
  • What are the pros and cons and the economic risks and returns of subsidizing infrastructure for professional sports franchises?
  • Will either team, or both, consider relocating if the tax is not extended?
  • If so, what would that mean for the identity of Kansas City?

These questions and more will be discussed.
