Whilst the world waits for $1.9 TRILLION worth of COVID free money from grandpa Prez Biden, Kansas City is already hard at work allocating funds that will follow the recent hobo agenda from City Hall.

KANSAS CITY PLANS TO SPEND BIG BUCKS FUNDING "FAIR HOUSING" WITH COVID RELIEF CASH ON THE WAY!!!
People in the know are already setting up a few garbage house and apartment building schemes to financially benefit from the government windfall.
Meanwhile, here's another look at recent housing progress from 12th & Oak that offers a preview of the money plan for those who read closely . . .
The Pitch: Kansas City votes to require developers to provide affordable housing
Summary . . .
The Kansas City Council unanimously voted 12-0 Thursday to require residential developers seeking tax breaks to provide a minimal number of affordable units.
The ordinance requires multi-family projects seeking economic incentives to set aside at least 10% of those units for residents earning 70% or less of the area median income. The rent for those units would be $1,000 or less. For those earning 30% or less of the area median income, rent would be approximately $500 to $700 per month depending on family income and apartment size.
“It is time to vote,” says Mayor Quinton Lucas, “It is time to commit for this city to progress on affordable housing.”
Lucas co-sponsored the measure with Councilwoman Melissa Robinson. The law’s effective date is March 29 so the council can explore alternative ways to provide affordable units in potentially including funding or vouchers.
Developers who cannot achieve, or do not set aside, that housing set-aside would pay 110% of the construction cost of the units to the city’s Housing Trust Fund.
Historic restoration projects and projects receiving state or federal low-income housing tax credits are exempt from the measure.

piggies at the trough?
ReplyDeleteActually, these funds could help get home providers back on their feet and pay some of the make up rent.
ReplyDelete^^^
ReplyDeleteBetter title: KC Tenants windfall.
Open these projects up in Mission Hills and Leawood.
ReplyDeleteI mean, let's all do our fair share. We have come a long way but have a long way to go. Maybe not that far-Mission Hills is just across State Line.
^^^^ EXCELLENT suggestion!
ReplyDelete“Whilst the world waits for $1.9 TRILLION worth of COVID free money from grandpa Prez Biden,”
ReplyDeleteActually South America already got $4 billion from dementia joe, I think most Americans would be happy just to get the $1400 that machine gun Nancy has been holding up for going on eight months now.
Chyna joe and both his hoes, Nancy “Alzheimer’s” peelousy, chuckles shitforbrains and the rest of the despicable worthless dimwit party are holding all money back until the American public start doing as they want or no money for you. Control and power.
^^^ I think you might be projecting, seems like you have some kind of cognitive impairment since you keep repeating yourself and telling lies that you learned on b.s. right-wing blogs.
ReplyDeleteCan you even find a reference from a news site that isn't paid for by the GOP.
I'm sick of trying to reason with you.
You're a stupid old man and you wear poopy diapers. You lost. Deal with it!
9:43 and you believe, even foam at the mouth for all the lies the extreme violent left wing nut Chinese owned news media tells you.
ReplyDeleteYou are a small pathetic bitter person. Sad.
9:43 everything he said is true, stupid bastard.
ReplyDeleteBut there is hope, you can be re-programmed at any one of those dimwit re-programming stations the left has set up all over the country amirite! Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteIt's about time for people to stand up and shout about this stuff and get it stopped!!
It will only get worse....look around the country, cities and states are giving money away in some form.
Look at what the libs in congress want to do. $2k monthly stipend to many people until the end of the pandemic!!
People wake up....time to stop this madness!!
I wonder how much of that rent relief will actually find its way into the pockets of the landlords, to whom after all the rent is due. Most likely, the bulk of the windfall will be split between bureaucrats and demonstrators. That's how most problems do not get solved.
ReplyDeleteDO NOT RENEW THE E-TAX!!!!! IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE CONSERVATIVE, WHITE, OR LIVE
ReplyDeleteOUTSIDE DOWNTOWN, THOSE DOLLARS GO TO DOWNTOWN INTERESTS, ADMINISTRATION INSIDERS, PEOPLE AND GROUPS WHO HATE YOU. YOU ARE FINANCING YOUR OWN DOWNFALL IF YOU VOTE YES.
9:43 Really getting concerned for you. Again, you forgot your ^^ pussy marks. If you quit jumping around in the tree, this wouldn't happen so often.
ReplyDeleteAlways check your fur to make sure, before going into the basement to post nonsense. Just not the same without ^^'s.
Oh. This is rich. First, the "housless" organize a union to demand shit. Then, the Free-shit Army marches and demands an end to evictions. Now they want "decent" housing. Life in a liberal city. Nice job coddling and enabling the freeloaders.
ReplyDeletewhat you need to do is send sears housing kits and have some under unemployed people in the community put them together.
ReplyDeleteKJ can get out there and start with some ground compaction and hand dig some foundation holes. That'd make it real nice.
ReplyDeleteScrew giving folks free housing, they can participate in building it if they got nothing much else better to do and are able. KJ is able and passionate, get there gurl.
THAT'S fair housing.
ReplyDeleteHopefully this will stop the developers from seeking out tax money. Hard to sell a nice home to live in if the children of Satan will live next door.
ReplyDeleteIn KCMO it's most likely that the city will try spending money on rehabbing houses and, as has happened in the past, will end up spending $1 million to rehab TWO houses that had a COMBINED post-project appraised value of $120,000.
ReplyDeleteAnother opportunity for the usual suspects to turn tax dollars into thin air.
Frosty!
Where do we find our "Vote No on the E-Tax" signs?
ReplyDeleteThem "affordable housing units will have roaches within 8 months
DeletePop up slums LOL!
