A new duplex subdivision, a child care facility at Kansas City Kansas Community College and an athletic complex for the Turner School District are on tonight’s City Planning Commission agenda.
The City Planning Commission will meet at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Aug. 12, at City Hall, 701 N. 7th St., Kansas City, Kansas.
According to agenda documents, the duplex subdivision at 3301 Garfield is seeking a zoning change to develop 12 two-family residences for a total of 24 residential units. The Seventh Day Adventist Housing project is represented by Michael Osbourn with Kaw Valley Engineering. It will be in the southeast corner of North 36th Street and Garfield, extending east along Garfield.
It is near a large campus of the Central States Conference of the Seventh Day Adventists, with I-635 to the west. There are many single-family homes nearby.
Also on the agenda is a plan review and petition for an athletic complex for the Turner Public Schools at 2211 S. 55th St., Kansas City, Kansas.
According to agenda documents, the Turner District Athletic Complex would cover more than 14 acres, and will include an outdoor stadium with bleachers, a 400-meter track encircling an all-purpose field.
The district and the UG have been discussing adequate parking for the facility.
DLR Group is the architect for the project.
A child care center is reopening at KCKCC. The previous child care center was open from 1978 through May 2017, when an announcement stated that it was being closed because of low enrollment numbers and economic hardship.
Little Leaders of KCK Inc. is applying for a special use permit to operate a child educational center at the Kansas City Kansas Community College campus at 7250 State Ave.
The child care center received KCKCC board approval this summer. Owners of Little Leaders are Christi Eaton and Kim Maples, who have more than 45 years’ experience in child education.
According to city planning agenda information, the center will be operated in a stand-alone building on the college campus that has been vacant, and the building has been designated as the child care center in the past. The space is being renovated, according to the agenda. Most of the center’s clients are expected to be parents who are students, instructors or employees already at KCKCC.
