An important community complaint from our neighbors offers a look at a lingering mess in the Crossroads. Checkit:
"If you think the rain storms are blowing down tree limbs and it's hard to get KCMO to clean them up. Take a look at the mud in the streets at 18th and Central and adjoining street in the Crossroads. The city has been notified several times to no avail, if it rains again tonight no streets will be left."
UPDATE . . .
THE KANSAS CITY CROSSROADS MUDSLIDE CONTINUES!!!
Take a look:
Developing . . .
City Hall wont5mow their own grass unless they're getting bad press. Then, it will be a matter of "we lost the paperwork but they're on it now". It never changes...look at the toy train, though!
ReplyDeleteI expect so very, very little from KCMO City Government. I'm rarely disappointed.
ReplyDeleteThe toy train causes mudslides, too!
ReplyDeleteThe devastation is those pictures is beyond words! It's like Haiti.
8:05 is likely one of those cocksuckers who uses the term "first world problems" any time someone complains about something that isn't an earthquake, tsunami or the like.
ReplyDelete5th worst run City in the U.S.
ReplyDeleteWhat else do you expect?
Well if the Streetcar ran past this part of the Crossroads, I'm sure it would be spotless. Maybe the Mayor would be standing on the corner of 18th and Central discussing the importance of this part of town.
ReplyDeleteWho needs erosion control when you've got art and vibrancy all around you?!
ReplyDeleteThe issue isn't that the streets need cleaning. We actually need a much bigger landslide in that area.
ReplyDelete41 News was there today doing a story. Should be on tonight.

KSHB is doing a story about dirt being washed into the street?
ReplyDeleteAnother example of the kind of hard-hitting "journalism" we've all come to expect from our local teleprompter readers.
Weren't there any three-person protests that they could have covered instead?
Small market doesn't even begin to describe the local media scene.
And it's sure clear as to why all the serious reporters and investigative types at Channel 41 bailed out for greener pastures.
World class!
Excuse me, but that is not mud in the streets!
ReplyDeleteThere was a large group of performance artists in the Crossroads who were debuting a work entitled "Take This Job And Shove It: The Enema Experience"
Gosh, I sure hope they can rebuild after that level of devastation. Kansas City Strong!
ReplyDeleteIf the basement dwelling beaner had any knowledge of city codes and the gis system he would know that this is the property owner's responsibility to clean this up, and the property owner is affiliated with his claimed alma mater-UMKC-more specifically the much anticipated downtown music campus.
ReplyDelete^^^ I think that is implied. The City also has a responsibility to enforce codes.
