COMMUNICATIONS WITH AND REPORTS OF THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE  
Phil LeVota, County Executive was present and made the following  
report:  
He remarked that hosting FIFA World Cup events showcased Jackson  
County as a world class destination. Arrowhead Stadium welcomed more  
than 413,000 fans in the six World Cup matches played here as well as  
the more than 400,000 plus visitors who experienced the FIFA Fan  
Festival. Because of that success, they are looking ahead to  
opportunities like the 2031 FIFA Women's World Cup and future  
international sporting events.  
The Jackson County public health system (University Health) has critical  
infrastructure issues with buildings in both Kansas City and Lee's Summit.  
He recommends the County issue bonds, in the amount of  
$150,000,000.00 to address those infrastructure needs. He invited  
Charlie Shields, CEO of University Health, to give a presenation  
regarding the buildings, and James Pritchard, Managing Director of  
Columbia Capital, to explain the bond issuing process. Chairman Abarca  
asked about prospects for the land adjacent to University Health facilities,  
and Charlie Shields said they will hold on to the land for future uses.  
The County Executive also reiterated the need to pass certain legislation  
on the current agenda.  
Chairman Abarca thanked the County Executive for addressing issues  
from last week that include: securing the Clerk of the Legislature's Office  
and Legislative Office areas; having key access to offices; using ID's to  
access the office suites, designating an HR person for the Legislature,  
printer codes and having visitors escorted to the area.
