Kansas City, Kansas, could get more affordable housing units built under this new state law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wyandotte County has a shortage of more than 4,000 affordable homes. About 23,000 households in the county can’t afford more than $400 a month for rent, according to a report from the county’s health department. Some local leaders say making more housing types available could help.

'Poverty wages’: UMKC service and maintenance workers go public with fight for higher pay (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Belkis Cabrera has worked as a custodian at the University of Missouri-Kansas City for 16 years. Each time she and her co-workers earn a merit raise, she said, increasing healthcare costs and inflation swallow it. “We are not asking for much, just respect and enough pay to get by,” Cabrera said through an interpreter at an Aug. 22 press conference at UMKC. “We are human beings and we deserve that at least.” The Laborers’ International Union of North America Local 955 — the organizer of the Aug.

Gathered were people with signs of support for streetcar workers voting on whether to join a union. “It’s pretty awesome when you’re pulling up and you see a whole line of people holding signs, cheering you on,” Batton told The Beacon. “That’s a pretty rad feeling.” Batton had voted before his shift, but was delighted to see the encouragement. “As each streetcar came by, we would cheer o
Kansas City approves 5 ballot questions allocating money for sewer, water, housing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kansas City voters on Aug. 4 overwhelmingly approved five citywide ballot questions — four bond measures totaling $1.7 billion and the renewal of a sales tax that funds economic development in the city’s urban core. City leaders, including Mayor Quinton Lucas, pushed for voters to pass all five questions while arguing that none would create a new tax or raise an existing tax rate. The two $100 million general obligation bond questions tied to municipal buildings and the Housing Trust Fund were t
