Jefferson City The Missouri House on Wednesday overwhelmingly approved legislation that would effectively lay waste to a controversial landfill project proposed in south Kansas City. The bill, sponsored by state Rep. Mike Haffner, a Pleasant Hill Republican, requires that cities within one mile of a landfill built in a nearby city be allowed to sign off before a project is approved. The current buffer is half a mile, giving surrounding cities little sway over the project proposed in Kansas City.
