Chaos erupted Thursday at City Hall as Kansas City Mayor quinton_lucas shouted for his colleagues to keep voting over the chanting of kctenants members who overpowered the council meeting. A leader with the advocacy group, Maya Neal (pictured), was handcuffed and escorted out of council chambers as dozens of KC Tenants members demonstrated against an ordinance proposed by Lucas. Tiana Caldwell, an organizer with the group and a member of the city’s health commission, was the sole person arrested Thursday, KC Tenant leaders said. Lucas’ proposal eases the requirements for developers to create affordable housing. Opponents have balked at the city’s calculation for affordability, which would classify nearly $1,200 a month for a one-bedroom apartment as affordable. Under this change, the city will need to set aside fewer affordable units or the cost of units marked affordable will be raised.
