Kansas City, Mo., July 3, 2019 – Rouse Frets White Goss Gentile Rhodes, under the leadership of attorney Mike White, joined the campaign to defeat a tax incentive measure that appeared on the June 18 Kansas City, Missouri ballot.
The measure, Question One, was placed on the ballot through a citizen initiative petition and would have capped economic development incentives, such as TIF and tax abatement, at 50% of their statutory maximum with no exclusion for distressed or under-resourced areas. The firm saw this as severely impeding the future of economic development in the city.
Joining the firm in opposition of Question One were a variety of organizations including the Kansas City Chamber of Commerce, local attorneys, developers, construction firms, labor unions, architects and more.

Choice of an attorney is an important decision and should not be based solely upon a website or advertisements. In reviewing achievements by the law firm or its attorneys, remember that past results afford no guarantee of future results; every matter is different and must be judged on its own merits. And, although our lawyers may practice in subject areas, neither the Supreme Court of Kansas nor The Kansas Bar reviews or approves certifying organizations or specialty designations for Kansas licensed attorneys.
