The latest move from a lame duck 3rd District Council dude who at least had the courage to follow-through with previous promises to this group unlike the Mayor.
To wit . . .
THANKS TO KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS FOR THIS UPDATE ON A SURPRISE MOVE FROM COUNCIL DUDE JERMAINE REED TO PUT THE KANSAS CITY $15 MIN WAGE ON THE BALLOT!!!
As of this writing, he's the only sponsor listed on the ordinance that previously earned the support of the Mayor when there was no chance of the thing becoming law . . .
Take a look . . .
The following item has been added to the agenda for the Transportation & Infrastructure Committee meeting scheduled for Thursday, January 26, 2017 at 8:45am in the Council Chambers, 26th Floor of City Hall, 414 E. 12th Street, Kansas City, MO 64106.
Ordinance: 170046: Calling an election on April 4, 2017, for the purpose of submitting to the voters of Kansas City a question presented by a committee of petitioners through an initiative petition enacting a municipal minimum wage ordinance to phase in a minimum wage of $15.00 per hour; enacting the minimum wage ordinance contingent upon voter approval; directing the City Clerk to notify the responsible election authorities on or before January 24, 2017; and recognizing this ordinance as having an accelerated effective date because it calls an election.
Developing . . .
