Overview
- Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe proposed exploring a retractable or fabric-style cover for Arrowhead to preserve its outdoor feel while adding all‑weather capability for events.
- Kehoe said he will meet with new Jackson County Executive Phil LeVota and indicated another local vote would likely be needed to fund any renovation.
- The Chiefs declined comment on the roof idea; chairman Clark Hunt has said the team continues to work on options in both Missouri and Kansas with no decision announced.
- Local talk-show reports say the team issued an RFP for a Kansas stadium and is negotiating for land near Kansas Speedway, a claim Kansas officials declined to confirm citing confidentiality.
- Kansas authorized bonds for up to 70% of a new stadium’s cost, while Missouri approved up to 50% in bonds plus up to $50 million in tax credits per stadium as the 2031 lease expiration and a rejected Jackson County sales-tax extension shape the timeline.
