Commission backs temporary signage for Fieldstone at Shawnee Mission Parkway, sends deviation to council
Summary
Planning commission recommended approval of multiple temporary sign deviations for the Fieldstone development at 4210/414210 Shawnee Mission Parkway to aid leasing and visibility, forwarding the recommendation to city council; developer emphasized tasteful, non-intrusive signage.
The commission voted to recommend multiple temporary sign deviations for the Fieldstone development at 4210/414210 Shawnee Mission Parkway and to forward those deviations to city council for final approval. Basil told commissioners the application requested temporary signs for up to 18 months and that "staff is opposed because of the deviation request." Austin Bradley, the owner/developer, said the signage is intended to assist leasing and marketing, adding, "This is not gonna be loud in your face, tacky, cheesy signage at all."
Commissioners weighed concerns about scale and safety at the nearby intersection (Shawnee Mission Parkway and 55th Street) but concluded the proposed sizes and locations are appropriate given the project’s large footprint and marketing needs. A motion recommending approval to council passed. The council will consider the sign deviations and any required permitting or conditions.
