Jackson County is pushing ahead with a plan to haul away 30,000 used Arrowhead Stadium seats and put them into storage until officials can decide how best to resell many of them to Chiefs fans and sports memorabilia collectors.
Monday’s decision could boost the county budget with a nice windfall, County Executive Frank White’s chief of staff, Caleb Clifford, told the county legislature, which voted 6-3 in favor of the plan.
Those in the minority, however, were skeptical, questioning whether county government should be spending time selling stadium seats when so many other projects, such as the jail, are demanding staffers’ attention.
