Kansas City's Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City reached an agreement on November 5, 2026, resolving a lawsuit over the Chiefs' stadium development project. The deal modifies the development area and grants the mayor a seat on the sports authority overseeing the project.

A banner displayed on December 22, 2025, outside the Docking State Office Building in Topeka indicated the Chiefs' potential move to Kansas, though funding details for the stadium development remain under consideration. The settlement addresses issues raised in the lawsuit filed by the Unified Government to change the stadium development terms.

The agreement was reported by the Kansas Reflector, with a photo by Morgan Chilson showing the banner at the state office building.
