Progress on the labor dispute that could threaten construction at
the Truman Sports Complex. Bridgette Williams, Kansas City AFL-CIO
President, says local ironworkers have reached a tentative 4 year
agreement. Carpenters are still negotiating. The unions for
carpenters and ironworkers doing construction at the Sports Complex
have been locked in contract talks with the Builders Association.
Current contracts with both unions expire Tuesday. More than $600
million in improvements are under way at the stadiums.
