A MESSAGE FROM MIDTOWN KC NOW BOARD OF DIRECTORS

It is with mixed emotions we announce that Midtown KC Now Executive Director Diane Burnette has accepted a position with the Urban Land Institute in Washington DC beginning the first of November this year.

I know we all want to send her our best wishes in her new adventure. She has been the heart and soul of MainCor/Midtown KC Now for 17 years and leaves us with a solid organization and worthy mission to carry on as best we can. Her strong and devout leadership will be very hard to replace, but we will endure and move forward.

Best regards,
Jim Edson
Midtown KC Now Board Chair
