The chairman of the board of the American Royal said tearing down Kemper Arena is a key element to improving the Royal, and that's coming from a man whose family name is on the building.

Mariner Kemper is the chairman of the board of the American Royal. After a group that wanted to remodel the existing building for a youth sports facility backed out this week, Kemper said the city should tear the arena down.

"The American Royal's numbers are not as good as all of us would have liked, but we've been forced to operate in subpar derelict facilities," Kemper said.

Kemper Arena hasn't had many concerts or other events since Sprint Center opened. It costs Kansas City more than $2 million per year.

The American Royal said it has a plan to demolish the arena and refurbish the Royal's other buildings. The plan calls for $30 million from the city. The city's plan is for $20 million.

"We now have an option between the Kemper plan in some form, or the status quo," said Scott Taylor of the Kansas City Council.

Kemper said Sporting Kansas City, which moved from Missouri to a new stadium in Kansas, should serve as the model to rebrand and revitalize the American Royal.

"The government found and saw that vision, backed it and built a great stadium out in Kansas," said Kemper. "Look what Sporting is today."

Kemper also said a new American Royal complex in the West Bottoms area will help lead to an economic revival in that part of Kansas City.

HEALDSBURG, Calif. (KGO) --

Most homeowner's would agree if a work crew damages someone's property, that crew is responsible for fixing it. However as one family found out, proving who's responsible is a different matter for help.

Deborah Bishop said there was water damage done to her wall that was caused by a leak in her roof. The long water mark appeared last winter during a winter storm.

"We were in the office and there was a drip down from the ceiling," Bishop said.

It wasn't until her husband climbed up to clean the gutters that he saw the problem, a big hole in the roof.

Bishop said she has a pretty good idea how the hole got there. A contractor for DISH had been up one the roof to connect Deborah's home for Internet service.

"He had gone up to the roof and then came back in and told me that it would be difficult to go through the roof."

The worker ended up running the cable along the roof and then on the outside of the house.

On the roof itself was mounted this bracket for the Internet.

Deborah's husband did some detective work. The shape of the indent on the roof and the holes matched the bracket
