Local government leadership in Johnson and Wyandotte counties recently unveiled where team and state officials want to build components of a $4 billion stadium package that would mark the Kansas City Chiefs’ crossover into Kansas. Last night, residents from Kansas City, Kansas, and Olathe told their respective governing bodies what they think about the Chiefs moving into their backyards and how much they want to pitch in to help finance the team’s proposed move. Olathe voted unanimously to put local tax dollars toward the new Chiefs facilities and KCK Commissioners will vote tomorrow whether to direct some local sales tax revenue to ward paying for the new domed stadium in Wyandotte. The package includes a $3 billion stadium in KCK and a new nearly $1 billion training facility and team headquarters in Olathe. The facilities will be surrounded by entertainment districts, Gov. Laura Kelly said during their announcement in Topeka. Interested in where the Chiefs want to set up shop? Read more about it at the link in our bio. 🎥: Tammy Ljungblad/The Star (@kctammy)
