Vote in this poll if you actually live in Jackson county.
We've all shared our opinions in the other thread. But who gives a shit what somebody in Platte County or Johnson County or Phoenix or NYC thinks. We're all just noise. [Reply]

Not to my understanding, no.
I think they will have no choice but to reroute the street, which will still end up doing what residents were concerned about: displacing businesses and razing buildings. [Reply]
Isn’t it obvious? They will shrink the field to better fit the typical Royals roster power numbers thereby improving the team’s scoring while keeping the street. Win win. [Reply]

Ok.
I can certainly find things to like about this stadium location should it pass. That integration of the south loop park is a major win for walkability and will just plain look cool as hell. [Reply]
Without specifics it was already a 'no' for me. But add that JACO residents, because we're funding the team's future with taxes, should not have any games blacked out, and should be given tickets (season or individual games) at half price. You know, because the new stadium is going to be SOOOOOO successful...
EDIT: And the owner has to commit to adding $10M a year to the player's spending limit each until we're a .666 team. Yeah, put your money where your dream are there Mr. Owner... [Reply]
