“There’s a sense of urgency I’ve never seen,” said Kansas City Councilman Wes Rogers. “I’m confident that we’re going to get a really good package for the Royals.”…
“The Chiefs’ thing was a wake up call,” he said. “I’ve spoken with the governor’s office, I’ve spoken with House leadership. I think the focus is not so much on north or south as it is just getting it done and keeping the Royals here.”
Missouri House Speaker Jonathan Patterson, a Lee’s Summit Republican, echoed Rogers’ confidence in an interview, but did not provide a deadline for when he thinks the team could announce their preferred location.
“Now is not the time to be giving ultimatums,” said Patterson. “But I think we can get a deal that’s good for both the teams and for Missouri taxpayers.”
