What happened
A Cole County judge rejected a constitutional challenge concerning property tax caps in Missouri. These caps, which were added to a bill aimed at keeping the Kansas City Chiefs in Missouri, apply to 97 of Missouri’s 114 counties. The ruling stated that the plaintiffs lacked the right to sue on the legal issues raised.

Why it matters
The caps mean that this year’s property tax bill cannot exceed last year’s amount in up to 22 counties, and cannot increase by more than 5% in 75 other counties. The decision impacts the financial structure of the stadium bill and the state's property tax provisions.
