Earlier this week it was announced that the Centene Corporation will move its headquarters to two buildings in Ballpark Village. Construction on the new buildings is slated for next Summer.
Centene has promised 1,200 new jobs downtown in the next five years. In return, the city will give the company $78 million in tax incentives.
One group that has always been opposed to taxpayer funding of the Ballpark Village is the Coalition Against Public Funding for Stadiums. They say the Ballpark Village is part of the stadium and should not be built with taxpayer funds.
Fred Lindecke of the Coalition visited PubDef's studio to talk about the issue.
