Commission recommends allowing drinking establishments as permitted use in City Center and PMU
Summary
The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend a text amendment changing drinking establishments from a special use to a permitted use in City Center (CC) and Planned Mixed Use (PMU) districts, keeping supplementary use regulations intact.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing and recommended approval of a Unified Development Code text amendment (UDC26-01) that would change drinking establishments from a special use to a permitted use in the City Center (CC) and Planned Mixed Use (PMU) zoning districts.
Stephanie Sullivan, Planning Manager, said the change removes the requirement for a special use permit in those districts while retaining supplementary regulations (setbacks, hours, noise, trash, outdoor activity limits and licensing). Commissioners noted the CC and PMU districts cover a relatively small area of Lenexa and that similar mixed-use goals are often implemented through Planned Unit Developments (PUDs). With no public comment recorded, Commissioner Wagner moved and Commissioner Horine seconded the motion; the recommendation passed by unanimous voice vote and advances to City Council for final action.
