Kansas City has not approved a new 911 center yet; city staff must first identify the equipment, technology, and steps needed to create one. The Council also ordered funding plans for violence prevention and retiree benefits. Transportation staff will study converting some four-lane undivided streets to three lanes and consider transit-only lanes along the streetcar extension, with a supported design speed of no more than 30 miles per hour.
