If you've lived in Kansas City for more than a month, light rail coming to this area is roughly equivalent to pigs flying, Esrey taking a pay cut and other fairy tales...
I was comparing it as such to the mythical airport legal riding area. I rode out there before it was "shut down" because life flight got called for some knucklehead. I think the cops just don't want to share their riding spot with anyone with a sense of self esteem that doesn't come from driving a car with lights that flash.
