KC Current Stadium Expansion Plan | Kansas City News

Kansas City is poised to invest $185 million in expanding the KC Current’s stadium, adding 6,500 seats to reach 18,000 total—just months after approving $600 million for a new Royals ballpark. The city manager will negotiate with the team and developers, while $150,000 is set aside for a financial feasibility study. If approved by a committee and City Council, the project will be part of a $1.4 billion Riverfront overhaul aimed at easing traffic and parking woes. Funding will likely come from redirected sales and utility taxes, with the team bearing responsibility for bond debt if revenues fall short—a risk not seen in the Royals deal. Some officials are raising concerns about overcommitting to stadium projects and whether private investment could shoulder more of the burden.
