They are very large organizations that we spent decades growing. It’s easier to retain the backfill.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC on FB Live your response to losing the Chiefs and Lockton is we need to backfill them. How do we do that?

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

If affordable housing is ultimately a math problem, how do these changes improve the math enough to produce more housing rather than simply shifting costs around or appeasing unions?

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC Mayor, since Kansas City's affordable housing requirements were adopted, they have produced zero affordable housing units.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

The city reduced the payment-in-lieu requirement from roughly $100,000 to $5,000 per unit, but at the same time added prevailing wage requirements.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC Looking forward to it 😉

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC I understand but we have never spoken one on one ever. Your work involves listening & working with constituents like myself and others. I would love to have a conversation elsewhere. Yesterday was my first tweet in 10 years. 280 characters isn’t enough to talk policy effectively

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC I think you’re great person. You are funny, clever, thoughtful and have a big heart. I just believe there are some changes the city can make to grow positively. My motivation for doing this is so when I do have a family someday I will want to staying KCMO and not move back to KS

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC Saying hello at an event is not what I am looking for. If you have 30 minutes where I can share some thoughts around policy changes I believe would benefit the city I would enjoy the opportunity.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC I have a lot of ideas I’d love to share and discuss with you, but you have never responded to my calls, emails, snail mail or messages on X. Please let me know if you have some time to chat.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC @MayorLucasKC I’ve tried to get ahold of you several times over the past few years, but unless someone is “important” or a news outlet, you don’t respond. I’ve supported you in the past and would still welcome a conversation. Until then, I’ll keep calling things out publicly.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC Non fatal shootings are up 15%, so the city is actually more violent, but people’s “aim” is getting worse thanks goodness. This is misleading. I’m happy deaths are down, but the city is more violent.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC @utekcmo2012 @Quinton You are trying to imply the city is safer because murders are down, even though no non fatal shootings are up. Do you care to respond to to this point?

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@Blake1771M @QuintonLucasKC They are up 15%, so the city is more violent, but there have been less deaths this year.

[Beck Warner Johnson @Beck5501]

@QuintonLucasKC I have tried texting and calling you, but could have the wrong number. A friend and I need your help with an urgent safety issue. Their business is in danger of being burned down. Please let me know the best way to connect and explain more. - Beck Johnson

My coworker came into work and was so tired she tried to plug her breakfast burrito into her phone charger.

@prmulvihill sounds like a personal problem...
