The Kansas City Star
Kansas City should consider imposing trash fees, getting local control of the Police Department and taking other approaches to deal with its financial problems.
Those are among the conclusions of a 188-page, long-range financial plan the City Council will discuss today at a business session. The public also will have a chance to learn about the report and comment on it Monday at a financial-preparedness forum sponsored by Mayor Mark Funkhouser. The forum will run from 8:30 to 11:45 a.m. at the National World War I Museum at Liberty Memorial, 100 W. 26th St.
