Mayor (Michael) Copeland reacted and asked what the city could do to support this growth in the Hispanic community.” In an effort to answer Copeland’s question, OLC was formed in late 2011 and created an action plan in 2013 (http://olc.kcblink. com/wp-content/uploads/ OLCFinalReport_2014. pdf) to address the Hispanic community’s needs, which included a provision for setting up an immigration resource center. In February of this year, Immigrant Connection Inc., an affiliate ministry of Olathe Wesleyan Church, started offering immigration services to Hispanics and people of other ethnic and national backgrounds. Mary Lou Jaramillo, OLC’s project director, said that growth in Olathe’s Hispanic community “probably started two decades ago.” “Even some friends I have that used to live in Kansas City, Mo., or Kansas City, YOUR LATINO CONNECTION SINCE 1996 TÚ CONEXIÓN LATINA DESDE 1996 septiembre 17 - 2015 | kchispanicnews.com about the future of education. “Instead of reducing their She supports the contested administrative burden, “School finance is not simple” block grant measure. outsourcing functions that do “While I can understand not have to be performed by CONT./PAGE 1 the measure unconstitutional that was administered by a with an updated version and the trepidation of some to district staff and other ways to noting that it was “a freeze in reduce costs.

The Greater Kansas City Hispanic Heritage Committee, Inc. saw one of the largest crowd in its history this year as they marked the 30th Anniversary of Fiesta Hispana in downtown Kansas City’s Barney Allis Plaza. The celebration takes place during Hispanic Heritage month. Committee chairman David Tinoco said he and the volunteers worked hard to pull off a successful event. There was plenty of music for all ages and each night of the three-day event brought more fiesta fans to downtown. First up on Friday night was Apache. On Saturday night there was a great jam session of Tejano artists. Fans listened and danced to the sounds of Hugo Guerrero, Ram Herrera, Art Tigerina, Calle 6 and David Farias. Sunday also saw a large turnout with fans coming out to see Montez. Topping off the weekend was a welcomed weather pattern that cooled off the Plaza.
