Kansas City Council Stops Voter Payouts

Northeast News notes ordinance amendment to thwart liquor lobbying: "Flyers posted in the Oak Park neighborhood boasted residents could earn $50 in five minutes. All they had to do was sign a liquor consent to allow a nearby convenience store to sell packaged liquor."

  1. What about the voter payouts Freedom, Inc. does? When will that be stopped?

  2. "The revised ordinance states applicants must provide a notarized statement that all submitted consent forms are from eligible property owners or tenants and that none of the consents were obtained by providing, either directly or indirectly, anything of value, which may include but is not limited to compensation, gift, loan, favor, privilege, service, among others."

    The hypocracy i laughable. They should apply this same standard of ethics to the development incentives voted on by City Council.

    No more free meals, trips, tickets to events etc. Or if you do accept anything of value from a projects' representatives, you may not vote on their project. Period.
