Key political leaders in Wyandotte County threaten a push to deconsolidate the Unified Government if they don’t see changes. Kansas City, Kansas Mayor Tyrone Garner gave a laundry list of complaints saying the UG could be on the path to bankruptcy by 2028. The mayor of Edwardsville, Carolyn Caiharr, said starting in November they’re forming citizen focus groups to hear from resident on ideas including deconsolidation. “If the Unified Government had been working as promised, I personally don’t believe we would have inherited a billion dollars’ worth of debt,” Caiharr said. Garner shared a long list of complaints with the current form of government in Wyandotte County launched 25 years ago.
