Kansas City voters will decide on Nov. 7 whether to approve the redesign of Kansas City International Airport.
Thanks to an Aug. 24 city council vote, the voters also will decide how to pay for it. At issue was the use of public or private money to finance demolition of the existing KCI terminals and the construction of a new single-terminal airport. The council had been divided over whether to ask the voters to approve the issuance of airport bonds, the most common method of public financing, or to allow the eventual winner of a competition to privately finance design and construction.
