KCMO Mayor Sly James RENTS, and resides in tony Union Hill at 108 E 30th St., a few houses east of Walnut--a block and a half east of Main. Where the yard sign and his bodyguard are on the street. That's open record.
He does not own any home in KCMO --he sold Mannheim, and relocated from a rental north of the river. Therefore, ipso facto, SLY JAMES DOES NOT PAY PROPERTY TAX!

You may recall he left his wife--and his kids' cars--listed on Mannheim Rd personal property--when he sold that house and encamped to rent in the Northland. But sloppy Joe--I mean Sly--then failed to pay his personal property taxes on time. That should have been grounds for the Election Board to refuse to allow him to run for re-election. But he was running against The Colonel--a homeless man. (never reported by Micheal Mahoney or the STAR.) And annoying Clay Chastain, who rents a room here from his sister in Westport--but lives and drives and votes in West Virginia. So the Election Board let that SLYde.
Currently in Jackson County, one in ten homes are already abandoned!!!! No property taxes paid there!
Sly's exit strategy out of Little Detroit--aka KCMO--got busted when Hillary ran a dreadful campaign, barking like a pit bull, and lost the Presidency. (I used to like her, and once wrote her 7 checks, so back off.) Sly's plan was: Hillary appoints Cleaver to a post, then Sly takes Cleaver's unexpired seat--requires just the votes of the local Democratic Central Committee--those nameless loyal precinct committeemen and women. Sly tells his landlord, do like Senator Pat Roberts does in western Kansas--rent me a back bedroom or just this Union Hill basement-- with a LaZBoy recliner for when I circle back to gladhand.
But instead of 23 Skidoo, now he's peddling 123GO.
