'South Metro Opposition Coalition'Opposition to the 'South Metro' Connector (abandoned 2008) Opposition to the Proposed CARNP Changes (2009) |  |
As a coalition of Johnson County Kansas and Cass County Missouri taxpayers, voters, and concerned citizens we oppose the proposed CARNP changes under consideration by the Johnson County Planning Commission. The picture of the Overland Park Arboretum (left) reminds us that economic growth and development must be balanced with maintenance of our natural environment. The picture of the Arboretum also reminds us that southeastern Johnson County is mostly rural, heavily wooded forest. The density of residential population and commercial businesses is low compared to the rest of the county, and the surrounding MARC counties. There is no population, now or in the future, projected to need the proposed Type I roads under consideration by the Commission.
The Johnson County Planning Commission is holding a second public hearing concerning CARNP changes that will affect Southeastern Johnson County.
The South Metro Opposition Coalition (SMOC), made up of over 2000 members, has consistently, on the record, opposed transportation infrastructure expenditures in Southeastern Johnson County.
