A note from organizers . ..

"The City Council recently set the stage for spending more public funds for expansion of the streetcar beyond the downtown line; something 60% of the voters voted against just this past August. We are now circulating an initiative petition that would require the City to put any expenditure of public funds toward the study or construction of an expansion line to a vote of the residents of Kansas City. We are trying to get approximately 7,000 signatures on the petition in the next couple of weeks. To that end, we will be gathering signatures at local markets and will be holding an event to collect signatures in the very near future."
