"Kansas City Voters Reject Sales Tax for Chiefs and Royals Stadiums"
The Kansas City Chiefs and Royals are facing uncertainty after a sales tax vote to fund stadium renovations was rejected by Jackson County voters. The Chiefs had planned an $800 million renovation for Arrowhead Stadium, with the Royals also seeking a new downtown stadium, but will now have to explore other financial options. Team officials expressed disappointment with the outcome and are considering their next steps, including the possibility of relocation. Despite the setback, efforts are underway to keep the teams in Kansas City, with the Chiefs' current lease at Arrowhead Stadium running through 2031.
