MO HJR107

Proposes a constitutional amendment to allow Kansas City to separate from Jackson County and operate independently as a home rule city no longer subject to county governance.

Establishes a six-member City-County Transition Committee consisting of the Kansas City mayor (or designee), two city council members, and three county legislators who do not reside in or represent Kansas City.

Requires the committee to develop a separation plan by the end of the calendar year following adoption, addressing law enforcement, public safety, courts, taxation, transportation, water services, and waste management.

Mandates that separation requires approval by a majority of voters in both Kansas City and Jackson County; if rejected, a new plan must be developed and resubmitted until approved.

Places the constitutional amendment on the November 2026 ballot, with automatic resubmission every 10 years (2036, 2046, etc.) if voters reject it until eventually approved.
