Kansas City Debates Plaza Tax Break
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
The Country Club Plaza, a Kansas City landmark, is at the center of a heated debate over a proposed $309 million tax incentive. Developers seek a tax break from Port KC to revitalize the struggling shopping district, but opponents, including Kansas City Public Schools, argue it would severely impact the school districts finances. The new owners, Gillon Property Group, believe the Plazas history and architecture are worth saving, but critics worry about losing potential revenue. The Port KC board will reconsider the proposal on December 15th, with Kansas City Councilmember Wes Rogers stating he will only support it if it benefits the school district.
