Kansas City Public Library Initiative: "Too goody-two-shoes" sez Kansas City Star Editorial Board Member


Excerpt: And here are a few ideas on the chamber’s Top 20 list that are too narrow, too goody-two-shoes or probably too difficult to complete:

“Further develop the historic 18th and Vine Jazz District.”

“Establish Greater Kansas City as the Youth Sports Capital of the U.S.”

“Make Pre-K education universal and free of cost throughout the metro.”

“Support the Kansas City Public Library initiative, ‘Build a community of readers.’”  [Emphasis added]

“Brand Kansas City as ‘America’s Creative Crossroads.’"
