Mixed-Use Design Standards

MUDS 9.3 Mixed-Use Development Examples

MUDS 9.3.1 Intent.

The following section provides examples of possible development that could occur within Overland Park using the Mixed-Use Design Standards. The intent of these examples is to illustrate some of the typical drawings that would accompany a submittal for rezoning to and/or developing as a mixed-use district.

MUDS 9.3.2 Test Sites.

Each example illustrates a specific mixed-use development type for a test site located within Overland Park, Kansas. For each test site, a sample illustrative plan, regulating plan, anticipated building types plan, and street types plan is included.

MUDS 9.3.3 Approval Required.

Inclusion of these examples does not imply, explicitly or implicitly, their approval for construction by the city; applicants would need to receive approval in order to construct anything that does not meet currently-adopted standards. The driveway, street, and alley locations in these examples are conceptual and may need to be adjusted based on conditions along the adjoining streets or thoroughfares.
