Monday Poll results: Support for a new KCI terminal
The possibility of building a new, single terminal at Kansas City International Airport appears to intrigue many people.
The City Council is expected in the next few months to decide whether to ask voters to approve a large bond issue that would either renovate KCI or construct the new terminal.
Here are the results of the latest Monday Poll on certain parts of the KCI project, based on just over 1,000 responses:
1. Stop talking about a new terminal. I want to keep the convenience of the current KCI.
Agree strongly 32%
Agree 8%
Disagree 15%
Disagree strongly 45%
2. If we don’t do as the airlines want, that could hurt future expansion of passenger service to and from Kansas City.
Agree strongly 37%
Agree 26%
Disagree 18%
Disagree strongly 18%
3. I do not believe supporters of the single terminal idea when they say airport users will pay for the project. Taxpayers will have to jump in at some point to help out.
Agree strongly 28%
Agree 20%
Disagree 23%
Disagree strongly 29%
4. Consultants did a good job of debunking the plan pushed by Crawford Architects to renovate the current KCI.
