Kansas City, MO –

The Kansas City, Missouri council passed an ordinance today to crack down on scrap metal theft. It requires recyclers of anything but scrap iron or aluminum cans to have a city permit and keep records of sellers and their vehicles.

The council also passed an ordinance requiring neighborhood approval if a museum located in an area zoned for single-family residences wants to expand.

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources wants to join a suit trying to stop federal ozone restrictions for the entire country.
