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.

    • Defunded, but not defeated.
    Congress just eliminated federal funding for KCUR, but public radio is for the people.
