BGD: LIKE THE BIG YELLOW SIGN SAYS THIS BRIDGE HAS A 12 FOOT CLEARANCE!!! IF YOUR TRUCK IS TALLER THAN 12 FEET GO AROUND!!!

Carlos Gomez: Another month, another two trucks meeting their demise at the hand of Kansas City's most resilient structure. Frightening to drive under even in a regular car, I'm sure truckers are frozen by the sight of this intimidating beast. May the legendary Avenue Bridge outlive us all.

Kiersten Roberts: A true marvel. Has withstood years of abuse from truckers who don’t know the height of their own truck.

S B: Built by the best and great entertainment for years! I’m sure many more lovely memories to come! 😍🤣

Dave Roberts: An amazing landmark of strength. testing the basic knowledge of reading and measurement skills of truck drivers for decades

Ericka Porter: Very long wait! If you are coming to handle property taxes, they open at 8am but you should arrive by 7:15/7:30am to get in line. You have to wait in the line and get out in queue. I arrived at 8:25am and was in line outside for just over an hour and a half. I ended up being #39 once I made it inside. I then waited for 3 hours for it to be my turn. You can set up to have text notifications when your number is coming up so you can at least sit in your car and wait. Once it was my turn, it took about 20-25 minutes to do what I needed and get done. The bathrooms were also out of order and they had porta potties outside instead.

Norfolk N. Waypal: Ugh. I got there at 7 am to add a vehicle, and I was 6th in line. By the time they opened at 8, there were 50 plus waiting. They are listed on the qless app, but you cant use it. It always says closed. The receptionist likes to interrupt and talk over you to ask exactly what I was trying to say when she interrupted. Once I got through the line it took about 45 minutes. If i had known about the vehicle inspections and complicated taxes, I would never have moved to Missouri.

BrookLynn Bruce: If you plan to see the assessor they tell you to arrive between 8-10am to get your “spot” but I would recommend being out there at 6-7am in the morning maybe 5-530am if you don’t want to be there ALL day long. I went today at 9am, stood in line until 10am before I made it to the lady at the front of the line asking everyone what they were there for. I thought once getting to her I was in & ready to go. I had no idea at that point I would be given a # & had 52 in front of me. I didn’t sit down with the assessor until exactly 415pm. I missed an entire day of work. Towards the end of the day I was able to secure a seat inside to sit. No privacy for anyone coming in to handle their business. It can all be heard out in the open by the man or woman at the desk. I sat & heard many people complain that they are tax payers & can’t even get in to handle their business unless they come early & even then people were turned away after so many people checked in. It’s unbelievable how they are running it. Terrible actually.

Edith Serrano: Muy mala atención una morena no nos quiso dar información de lo que andábamos haciendo y nos saco muy feo del lugar y no permitió que mi esposo le explicará lo que necesitaba.

TREELIE W: Poor management

Thomas Owens: Went to take care of my personal property taxes. Was there at 8:30 A.M.Did not git done until 3:15 P.M.

ScroatBagGarage: The vicarious incompetency actions by the director of the Recorder of Deeds, Diana Smith who knew or should had known that shutting down access to the Recorder of Deeds during the plumbing issue at the Historic Truman Courthouse (week of 03/06 - 03/10 2023) with no reasonable remedy for someone to pick up their marriage license would cause significant financial and stressful consequences. Complete lack of leadership and common sense.,Long story short, I took our daughter and her fiancé who had an appointment to pick up marriage license 03/06 (mon) after completing the online app the week before when we saw the notice on the door: Closed till 03/08 (wed), ok plenty of time, wedding 03/11 (sat). Now closed 03/09 (thr), 03/10 (fri) and no way to reach a human on the phone as they are all enjoying a week off. Wedding had to be postponed, venue had to be changed, food had to be changed, entertainment changed and moved 2 weeks later, tell me that's practical and not expensive!After I called numerous times unsuccessfully able to reach any human or receive any direction, I drove again to the historic courthouse to see if there was any updated notes posted on the door or someone with any updates how to get answers. Nothing, no one, nada, zilch, buzzttt (game show wrong answer buzzer sound). Just another note saying closed the rest of the week.A reasonable person would believe it should had been handled by, a reasonable accommodation; by closing tax side, keeping Recorder of Deeds open, bring in porta-pottys for employees and place outside building. Leave sign saying no restrooms. Allow business to continue at RofD office (they are a low traffic department anyway). Allowing marriage license's to be picked up as scheduled. Have phone numbers that actually go to a human so you can get direction instead of ring/no answer and automated loops.Complete failure by the director of the RofD office, perhaps her position should be re evaluated. Imagine the legal remedies if you could get around the sovereign immunity shield.

Adam Patton: Waiting outside in the cold, windy morning for them to open because they have yet to find a way to automate taking care of personal property tax issues is absolutely ridiculous. The woman who helped me was hateful, practically yelled at me, asked inane questions and then got upset at my responses, and overall proved in word and deed how much she hates being a civil servant.

Marisa Franks: I hate to give one start ... EXPECT TO BE SET UP FOR FAILURE AND WAIT FOREVER THE PROCESS OF TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS IS RIDICULOUS AND THE PEOPLE THAT WORK HERE ACT LIKE YOUR NOT THE PERSON HAVING TO WAIT
