Kansas Proposes New Chiefs Stadium
The Kansas City Chiefs might be moving to Kansas.
Kansas officials want to build a new stadium for the team.
They plan to use a special program called STAR bonds to help pay for it.
The stadium could cost around $3 billion.
The program lets future money from tourism pay back the developers.
The Hunt family, who owns the team, will pay $1 billion.
It's not clear yet how much public money will be used.
The Chiefs are a football team that currently plays in Missouri.
The new stadium would be in Kansas, which is a different state.
The team hasn't officially decided to move yet.
Kansas officials proposed a new stadium deal for the Kansas City Chiefs.
The proposed stadium would be located in Kansas, potentially moving the team from Missouri.
The stadium is estimated to cost around $3 billion, excluding practice facilities.
Up to 70% of the project could be financed through STAR bonds, using future tourism sales tax revenue.
The Hunt family has committed $1 billion toward the project, and no new individual taxpayer money will be used.
