Case: RZ-11-18-6656
BACKGROUND INFORMATION/SUMMARY:
The applicants and owners, Jason and Cindy Kniffen, are requesting to rezone 0.64 +/- acres
from “GB” (General Business) to “MF-14” (Moderate Density Multi-Family) for property addressed
as 3305 SW 40 Highway. The existing single-family house was constructed in 1965 in
unincorporated Jackson County and was zoned “AG” (County Agriculture). The subject property
was most recently rezoned to “GB” (General Business) in 2007 to serve as a future office and/or
retail use that would support the proposed fourplex development to the north and west of the
property. The remaining 8.90 +/- acres of property owned by the applicants is zoned “MF-14.” The
request is to match the existing “MF-14” to bring the existing single-family use in compliance with
the zoning code.
PREVIOUS ACTIONS/APPROVALS:
The subject property was annexed into the City on December 20, 2004 (Ordinance No.
3848).
On December 13, 2004, the Planning Commission approved a Comprehensive Plan Map
Amendment (CPA-M-3-2004) to change the future land use designation for the subject
property from “Low Density Residential” to “Warehousing/Assembly.”
On December 13, 2004, the Planning Commission approved a Preliminary Plat for
Barrington Plaza. The Preliminary Plat expired prior to commencement of any
development.
On December 13, 2004, the Planning Commission recommended approval of a Rezoning
(R-12-2004) to rezone the subject property from “AG” (County Agriculture) to “LI” (Light
Industrial). The City Council approved the Rezoning on December 20, 2004 (Ordinance
No. 3849).
On December 13, 2004, the Planning Commission recommended approval of a PUD
Concept Plan (PUD-6-2004) for Iron Creek Second Plat PUD, with the intent on converting
the existing single-family house to office in the future. The City Council approved the PUD
Concept Plan on December 20, 2004 (Ordinance No. 3850). The PUD Concept Plan
expired prior to commencement of any development.
On March 26, 2007, the Planning Commission approved a Comprehensive Plan Map
Amendment (CPA-M-7-2007) to change the future land use designation for the subject
property from “Warehousing/Assembly” to “General Commercial.”
On March 26, 2007, the Planning Commission approved a Preliminary Plat for Barrington
Ridge PUD. The Preliminary Plat expired prior to commencement of any development.
On March 26, 2007, the Planning Commission recommended approval of a Rezoning (R-
10-2007) to rezone the subject property from “LI” (Light Industrial) to “GB” (General
Business). The City Council approved the Rezoning on April 2, 2007 (Ordinance No.
4058).
On March 26, 2007, the Planning Commission recommended approval of a PUD Concept
Plan (PUD-8-2007) for Barrington Ridge PUD, with the intent on converting the existing
single-family house to office/retail in the future. The City Council approved the PUD
Concept Plan on April 2, 2007 (Ordinance No. 4059). The PUD Concept Plan expired prior
to commencement of any development.

Comprehensive
Plan: According to the 2014 Comprehensive Plan, “the Future Land Use Policy Map
reflects planned future land uses at the most generalized and city-wide scale. The
intent of the Future Land Use Policy Map is not to predetermine land uses or zoning
Page 3 of 6
Project: 3305 SW 40 Hwy.
Case: RZ-11-18-6656
on a specific parcel or at specific locations. Together with other elements of the
Comprehensive Plan, the Future Land Use Policy Map should be used to guide
the relationships and physical improvements needed to create the types of places
that are part of Blue Springs’ long-range vision.”
The Future Land Use Policy Map designates this property as “Corridor
Reinvestment” area.
Corridor Reinvestment areas are “along primary corridors in Blue
Springs, outside of Neighborhood Centers, Business Hubs, or Distinct
Destinations that require strategic investments to improve both the
immediate area as well as the relationship to other potential places
elsewhere in the corridors. Priority land uses in these areas include
employment or residential uses that can support the other places, or
commercial uses that require format, location, or access needs that are not
compatible with more compact or mixed-use places.”
According to the 2014 Comprehensive Plan, “Specific Plans are detailed, area-
specific perspectives of the patterns and coordination of the built and natural
environment, and how these details contribute to unique places in Blue Springs.
These plans offer a more refined and location-specific application of the Policies,
Goals, and Targets of the General Plan to a particular context.”
The C1 Area’s Specific Plan designates this property as a “Mixed-Use - General”
area.
Mixed-Use - General is defined as “A mix of retail, service and
entertainment, institutional and employment uses, primarily located around
the periphery of Neighborhood Centers or Distinct Destinations to support
the core areas of those Place Types. These areas may include residential
uses in formats that support the principal commercial nature of the area.”
Zoning: The intent of the “MF-14” zoning district is defined in Section 404.100, as follows:
The MF-14, Moderate Density Multi-Family District accommodates
moderate density multi-family development. This district can integrate
different housing options as part of the overall neighborhood development
patterns identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Application of this district
should include appropriate transitions to complimentary zoning districts
that provide neighborhood services and amenities.
Section 404.100 references the land uses and building types permitted in the “MF-
14” district (see previous Tables). Additionally, Section 404.100 defines specific
performance and design standards.
REVIEW CRITERIA:
In reviewing any application for an amendment to the Official Zoning Map (zoning change), the
Planning Commission and City Council shall review the proposed amendment considering the
Comprehensive Plan, the general requirements of the Unified Development Code, and the
following considerations:
Page 4 of 6
Project: 3305 SW 40 Hwy.
Case: RZ-11-18-6656
1. The application is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan and any official plan of
program developed under the guidance of the Comprehensive Plan, and in particular
the relationship of land uses within the proposed district and the relationship with uses
existing or anticipated in surrounding districts.
STAFF RESPONSE: The Future Land Use Policy Map designates this
property as both Corridor Reinvestment and Mixed-Use General. Corridor
Reinvestment areas are along primary corridors outside of Neighborhood
Centers and are generally reserved for development types that are not
compatible with more compact or mixed-use places. Mixed-Use General areas
can include residential uses, generally in a higher-density, mixed-use format.
The proposed zoning will allow the existing single-family residence to remain
until it is redeveloped in the future, which is most likely to be part of a larger
development to the north and west that is already zoned “MF-14.” The
proposed rezoning would also remove a small island of “GB” zoning that would
be challenging to redevelop as commercial due to size and access restrictions.
2. The application furthers the intent of the proposed zoning district and supports that of
any abutting zoning districts.
STAFF RESPONSE: Although the requested “MF-14” zoning is primarily
utilized for multi-family development, it brings an existing non-conforming use
back into conformance with current zoning. The requesting zoning also
matches adjacent zoning districts, which will make it easier to redevelop as
part of a larger development in the future.
3. The precedents that might result from approval or denial of the application, and the
possible effects of such precedents on the character of the area, and in particular the
building form, site design, and other development patterns and urban design aspects
that accompany precedents for the proposed district.
STAFF RESPONSE: The requested “MF-14” zoning district is not out of
character for the area. The purpose of the request is to bring an existing non-
conforming use into conformance with the current Unified Development Code.
4. Compliance of any proposed development with the requirements of the UDC.
STAFF RESPONSE: The subject property is not platted but has the ability to
meet the requirements of the UDC as a single-family house building type.
5. The ability of the City or other government agencies to provide any services, facilities
or programs that might be required if the application were approved.
STAFF RESPONSE: The requested rezoning covers 0.64 +/- which is not
expected to create a significant increase in demand for services, facilities, or
other programs.
6. The effect of approval on the condition or value of property in the City or in the vicinity,
including the likelihood of surrounding areas to be developed in accordance with the
Comprehensive Plan.
STAFF RESPONSE: Staff believes approval of this rezoning will not reduce
property values of adjacent properties or the ability to be developed in
accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
7. The requested zoning change is justified by a change in conditions since the existing
zoning was designated or by an error in the current designation.
Page 5 of 6
Project: 3305 SW 40 Hwy.
Case: RZ-11-18-6656
STAFF RESPONSE: The property was rezoned to “GB” in conjunction with a
previously approved (now expired) Concept Plan for a townhouse
development. The subject property was proposed to be used as office and/or
retail that would support the townhouse development. The applicant would like
to continue to use the existing single-family house as a residence.
8. The consistency of the application with other adopted policies of the City.
STAFF RESPONSE: Staff believes this proposal is consistent with other
adopted City policies.
9. The recommendations of professional staff.
STAFF RESPONSE: Staff recommends approval of this rezoning proposal.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this Rezoning request.
