Commission approves conditional use for consumable hemp retailer at 600 Webster Road
Summary
A conditional-use permit for a consumable hemp retailer at 600 Webster Road (KCU2026-019) was approved; staff said the site meets the city’s barrier-distance requirement from West Auburn Baptist Church.
The commission approved a conditional‑use permit for a specialty retailer of consumable hemp products at 600 Webster Road after staff verified the site meets the city’s barrier requirement separating such establishments from places of worship.
Staff explained the measure must be heard under the conditional‑use process and noted that the West Auburn Baptist Church to the west is beyond the 250‑foot barrier distance required by the city code adopted for consumable hemp retail. There were no public speakers on the item.
The commission moved to approve KCU2026‑019, the motion was seconded, and the item carried on the commission vote.
Next steps: If required by the code amendments, the zoning amendment will become effective after publication periods and any city council action; permit issuance and licensing will follow the city’s regulatory process.
