273: How speculation hurts housing in Columbus Park
b'
On this week's episode of the Northeast Newscast, we're joined by Kate Barsotti, the president of the Columbus Park Neighborhood Council, and Erin Royals, a tenant and urban planner. We discuss the six-acre Housing Authority of Kansas City property that currently has a Request for Proposals out, the neighborhood's fight against Type 2 Short-Term Rentals, and how nearby stadium builds could affect their tight-knit community.\\xa0
In this discussion, we reference resources that are free and accessible to the public, which will be linked below.
