Given that the plan adoption should coincide with the adoption of the UDC. Mr. Holley explained to the Commission that it was P.C. Minutes – 06.23.2014 Page 3 of 5 kf NOT APPROVED not imperative to adopt the plan at this meeting but if they are comfortable with the plan as submitted they could move forward for adoption. Mr. Holley noted that if they chose to adopt the plan the effective date should coincide with the UDC adoption, Mr. Holley introduced Chris Brewster with Gould Evans. Chris Brewster, Gould Evans 4041 Mill Street Kansas City, MO Mr. Brewster stated that he has been the project manager for the revised Comprehensive Plan. March 2013: Kick-Off with the Steering Committee. From there staff conducted background data and created a list of what the City’s current situation is. May and June: Public Visioning Sessions held at Adams Pointe Golf Club. The input from those visioning sessions developed our goals and targets. November and December: Public Workshops on specific plans. There were three different workshops south, central and the north area. The community came in and actually saw designs and concepts. Following all of those meetings Gould Evans drafted a plan and held a series of Stakeholder meetings to review the draft of the plan to make sure they were on task. The theme of this plan was to be user friendly, almost like a business plan. The approach was to move some the technical things to the appendices. Mr. Brewster presented a PowerPoint presentation on the background, data and research of the Comprehensive Plan which you can find on the City’s website. (www.bluespringsgov.com) There are three major things that this plan will bring about for regulatory changes and they are: neighborhood centers; residential districts; and street design. QUESTIONS Planning Commissioner James Wallace asked when the UDC would be updated. Mr. Brewster stated that he thought mid-July and adoption in September. Mr. McDonald stated that some of the changes to the UDC will be specific to allow use of the Comprehensive Plan so staff wants to make sure that the Comprehensive Plan is suitable with the Planning Commission before we make changes to the UDC. The changes will need to be made to the UDC if the Comprehensive Plan is adopted, if not adopted then no changes will need to be made to the UDC. At a previous meeting Mayor Pro-Tem Susan Culpeper asked where this type of plan has been used before. Mr. Holley stated that Raleigh, North Carolina, has a similar plan. P.C.

Vicinity Map / General Location Map Figure 2. Project Site (Aerial Photo) Page 2 of 4  Project: The Shores at Chapman Farms Tract CC Plan Case Number: PF-6-14-4472 BACKGROUND INFORMATION/SUMMARY: Chapman Farms is intended to be the first large scale “mixed use” and “master planned” community to be constructed in Blue Springs. The Shores of Chapman Farms is a proposed single-family, upper-end residential subdivision with “semi-custom homes above $300,000” located in the northeast quadrant of Chapman Farms. This request is for a recommendation of approval for a Final Plat for the Shores of Chapman Farms, Lot 9,Tract CC, as noted above. The purpose of the Final Plat is to remove a portion of trail originally approved with the Chapman Farms Master Plan and Final Plat for The Shores on Tract C (now noted as Tract CC). PREVIOUS ACTIONS/APPROVALS: As of November 15, 2004, the City Council had approved the requested Rezoning, PUD Concept Plan, and Final Plat for the Chapman Farms development. In order for Green Fields Development (hereinafter, “Developer”) to proceed with platting and selling of lots, a procedure was adopted as a part of the Rezoning Ordinance for Chapman Farms. The Preliminary Plat was approved by the Planning Commission July 10, 2006. Real Estate Contracts between the “Developer” and “Sub-developers” will require buyers to acknowledge the PUD Concept Plan and the Restricted Overlay District, which incorporates the PUD Concept Plan. As established in the Rezoning Ordinance, at the time any subsequent developer (hereinafter, “Sub-developer”) buys a Lot for development, the Sub-developer will be required to re-plat that portion to comply with the already approved Plat and go through the subdivision process of the UDC to establish a Final Plat in compliance with the UDC further detailing the infrastructure and constructing the same and/or establishing financial guarantees as set forth in the UDC. For the Shores at Chapman Farms, the Planning Commission approved of a PUD Final Plan, PUDF-5-07-1088 on June 11, 2007, and a Final Plat, PF-5-07-1087 on June 11, 2007. The Planning Commission approved the Preliminary Plat on July 11, 2006. A Final Plat was approved by the City Council for The Shores on June 18, 2007. ABUTTING ZONING AND LAND USES: Direction Current Zoning Surrounding Land Uses North SF-7/PR-O Chapman Farms Lot 8 West SF-7/PR-O Chapman Farms Lot 7, (Lakeside) South SF-7/PR-O Chapman Farms Lot 10 and Lot 11 (Greenbriar) East SF-7/PR-O, County AG Chapman Farms Lots 10, Rural Tracts RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat with conditions (2). Page 3 of 4  Project: The Shores at Chapman Farms Tract CC Plan Case Number: PF-6-14-4472 FINAL PLAT REVIEW Sidewalk / Path Improvements: All developers are required to construct all sidewalks and paths located within the common area or tracts with exception of the trail which the property owner is requesting to remove. As a part of the PUD Concept Plan approved on June 11, 2007, the developer proposed to construct an interconnected pedestrian and multi-modal trail network for the overall Chapman Farms project. That trail is proposed to be located in Tracts A, C and D. The developer, Chapman Shores, LLC is requesting that the trail proposed to be located in Tract C of Lot 9 be removed. The proposed trail in Tract C was approved as a secondary trail connection to the main pedestrian trail connection proposed in Tracts A and D. The trail is being removed because it is a redundant connection. The trail around the lake serves the same function as it will connect to the north trail head. With the removal of the trail, residents can easily connect to the lake trail. The trail will change from active open space to passive open space and include the addition of a tot lot. ACTION BY PLANNING COMMISSION The Planning Commission has the responsibility to determine if the removal of the asphalt trail from the plat is appropriate for the proposed use, activity, or building, and may approve or deny an application for Replat of the Chapman Farms Lot 9. Action of the Planning Commission may be appealed to the City Council. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Shores at Chapman Farms Tract CC, A Replat of Tract C with the following two (2) conditions: 1. Approval by the Planning Commission is based on the representations of any drawings presented as part of this application but does not waive any requirement or development standard contained in the UDC or requirements set forth in the Conditions of Approval as approved by the Planning Commission. 2. The Final Plat shall be recorded with Jackson County and returned to the Community Development Department. The City of Blue Springs reserves the right to deny future building permits and/or Certificates of Occupancy if the Final Plat is not returned to the Community Development Department within 30 days of City Council approval.
