During 2026, MARC plans to host two events that provide a forum for cities to discuss Short-Term Rental policy in relation to the 2026 World Cup. The purpose of these events is to provide an opportunity for idea sharing, help document region policy, and encourage actions that help keep the region moving towards it’s housing goals following the summer of 2026.

This eight (8)-hour course is locally developed by regional police officers and tactical medics. It was developed for regional first responders who will be exposed to and then asked to demonstrate techniques related to countermeasures when engaging with motivated attackers. This instructor-led training will start with classroom instruction which will build to demonstrated techniques and end with practical application scenarios involving simulations. Travel costs are not provided.

In late 2025, the Kansas City Regional Housing Partnership (RHP) partnered with Visible Network Labs (VNL), a data science company that helps measure, understand and evolve the personal and professional networks that influence communities, to create a data map of the RHP Network. The goal of the project was to identify who is currently active in the regional housing ecosystem, what services they provide, how they collaborate, and where expansion opportunities exist.
