AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Hiring Slowdown: Young job seekers in Kansas City and beyond say they’re stuck in a “low-hire, low-fire” market—dozens of applications, few callbacks, and even entry-level openings feel out of reach. Severe Weather & Reliability: Storms across the metro left damage reports and power issues, while rural Missourians are reminded that dependable internet matters most when weather hits. Public Safety Leadership: Grandview named Capt. Richard Rodgers as its next police chief, starting May 23 as Chief Charles Iseman retires. Food Safety: Kroger Homestyle Cheese Garlic Croutons are under recall in multiple states, including Missouri, due to possible salmonella risk. Tech & Infrastructure: Missouri added CyberTech to its GIS services vendor list, and GoNetspeed broke ground on a 100% fiber build in South River, New Jersey. Politics in the Spotlight: JD Vance’s Missouri factory remarks sparked a viral backlash after he urged supporters to “vote against” Washington leadership.
