      <![CDATA[You didn't even touch on yet another boondoggle involving Mr. Threatt and the CDC-KC: four or five years ago, when the KCMO Police Department resisted purchasing The Landing Shopping Center at 63rd and Paseo from CDC for the new metro police station because studies showed it was on a 100-year flood plain, Threat and his good friend and ally, Mr McCarther pitched a wangdangdoodle, engaged the unswerving support of Councilman Riley, and maintaining that the City was racist in its unwillingness to build on that spot. No one wanted this hassle, and the City and KCPD would've been more than happy to complete the deal, but cooler heads prevailed and the constituency was spared another investment in a questionable project that cared not one whit for the future stability of the city's infrastructure.
