Kansas City, Missouri, would issue $600 million in bonds for a new downtown stadium for Major League Baseball's Royals under a proposal officials are pursuing months after Kansas lured professional football's Chiefs over the state line with a massive stadium subsidy.
Mayor Quinton Lucas and nine of 12 City Council members introduced a proposed ordinance Thursday to allow the city manager to negotiate with the Royals over a new stadium near the city's historic Union Station and its World War I museum, about 6 miles northwest of the Royals' current Kauffman Stadium.
