Missouri's new governor is keeping a lot of the same people in charge. Why that matters

The article from The Kansas City Star discusses the ongoing debate over the future of the Kansas City Royals' stadium. The team's lease at Kauffman Stadium, part of the Truman Sports Complex, is set to expire in 2031.

Additionally, it touches on the historical context of previous stadium funding debates and the broader implications for the city's development.
