Police station, Krispy Kreme store and Village East plan on Planning Commission agenda

A public safety facility at 2100 Metropolitan Ave., a Krispy Kreme doughnut store at Wyandotte Plaza and master plan conformance for Village East, Schlitterbahn area, is on tonight’s Unified Government Planning Commission agenda.

The Unified Government Planning Commission is considering several items tonight.

The public safety facility in the Argentine area is at a former heavy industrial location, the Structural Steel site. The site was environmentally remediated and would have to comply with environmental development standards.

It is near the new Walmart and Save-a-Lot site in Argentine. In previous stories, the site has been mentioned as a possible South Patrol police station, and potentially, space for a parole office.

Korb Maxwell is listed as the developer for the 15,160-square-foot public safety facility on 9 acres at the location.

The Krispy Kreme restaurant address listed is 7648 State Ave., the same address as the former Evergreen restaurant at Wyandotte Plaza. It would have 2,671 square feet and would include a drive-through.

For the Village East, Schlitterbahn area, STAR bond district, the UG is looking at an expansion of the area.

According to Planning Commission agenda documents, the UG is expected to expand the original Village East STAR bond project district in August 2014. The expanded district would include the original district property and adds 126 acres of land located in the northeast part of 94th and State Avenue, along with adjacent State Avenue right-of-way. There are five project areas.

According to agenda documents, the area is designated for mixed entertainment use. Other building for commercial uses such as a hotel or other lodging, office facilities, multi-family residential units, could be included.

Several other items also are on the agenda, which is online at http://www.wycokck.org/InternetDept.aspx?id=40107.
