Despite objections from Kansas City voters, Missouri voters approved​ an amendment to the state constitution that will require Kansas City to spend more money on its police force. The measure mandates that Kansas City increase the allocation from its general revenue fund to the police department from 20% to 25%. Kansas City is already required by the state to spend 20% of its revenue on the police department, and this year allocated 24.3% of its general revenue on the department. City officials estimate that the spending difference between 25% and the current requirement of 20% is $38.7 million.
