Park Hill School Board results show incumbent Sanchez losing to David Cox for the 1 year term. Burr was a distant third. The three year term winners were incumbent Bolin, joined by Boon Lee and Rick Turley. Pauli Kendrick, an appointed incumbent, finished in fifth, not within striking distance of Turley. Two incumbents out, why? I am sure some of the speculation will point to the open affiliation with Democratic politics for the two...in a County that gave Democrats a severe beating this past fall. Sanchez has been a bit combative, as reported by the Luminary, maybe that was a factor. In any event the makeup of the Board is changing, I would have to believe for the good. Voters handed the Board a whopping $49.5 million in passing the new "not tax increase bond issue". We'll have to see if the Board can be a steward of the money and spend it wisely.
KCMO voters overwhelmingly passed the continuation of the E-tax...so those of you who work or own businesses in KCMO will have to pay that 1% off the top, until the next challenge in 5 years.. You really didn't think they would let you off the hook...did you?
