STOP KANSAS CITY FROM ALLOWING BRINSHORE DEVELOPMENT HOUSING TO BUILD BY NORTH PLATTE PURCHASE NEIGHBORHOODS
A developer, Brinshore Development, LLC, has proposed the construction of a high-density, subsidized development directly and primarily accessed by North Platte Purchase. This was a grant won by Kansas City to rebuild Chouteu Courts. This development is proposed to include one or both of the currently undeveloped/green space locations:
A) The southwest corner of the intersection of Barry Road and North Platte Purchase
B) West side of North Platte Purchase between NW 79th Terr and south of 82nd St
-UPDATED 7.20.2017 Brinshore is no longer considering the location between NW 79th and 82nd. THE LOCATION AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF BARRY AND PLATTE PURCHASE IS STILL BEING CONSIDERED!
Some information has been provided by the developer on their website for the project and through a public information meeting on July 5, 2017. However, many inconsistencies were noted during the public information meeting. Members of the various city oversight entities for development indicated that they were aware of the development and additional permitting would be required, however no approvals have been formally sought by the developer at this time.
Portions of this development would be managed by the Kansas City Housing Authority for the potential relocation of individuals previously living with the Paseo Gateway Transformation Plan. No representation of the individuals who may be included in the residences was present at the July 5 meeting. City Council members were not present at the meeting.
This area and surrounding neighborhoods is not a suitable place for this development given the current fire, police, school district, and infrastructure needs of the area. It is our belief this development will negatively impact:
- The surrounding school districts of Platte County R-III, Park Hill, and North Kansas City because of the limited resources that are available to children within these schools to date
- Our community and residents as we do not have the resources that are needed for public transportation, retail, healthcare access, grocery stores, and employment opportunities within walking distance
- Traffic on Barry Road and Platte Purchase due to increased residents and construction.
- No considerations have been given for this project’s impacts to city or county tax dollars, police and fire departments support, infrastructure development and maintenance, and existing road access.
Allow this petition to send a resounding and unequivocal message, DO NOT ALLOW the proposed housing in the Platte Purchase and Barry Road and/or Platte purchase areas for the following reasons.
1) It changes the charm and existing characteristics of the existing neighborhood.
2) It sets a precedent for further high-density housing in all other Northland single-family neighborhoods.
3) It will create temporary (construction) and permanent problems to an area not adequately designed for such density increases to school enrollment, police and fire departments support, infrastructure development and maintenance, existing road access, and public transportation.
4) Economic analysis of impacts to city and county resources are either non-existent, unshared by the developer, or inadequate.
We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens urge our city leaders to not proceed with the Brinshore Development Paseo Gateway Housing Project at the North Platte Purchase locations.

I really thought this might just float around in the void but seeing so many people getting fired up about the Barry Road plans honestly leaves me speechless. It is wild that we have this much attention suddenly because I was just typing out my frustration in the dark one night (which felt pretty lonely at the time) but now it feels like people are actually watching.

I was just looking at the total and my head is spinning because we are getting so high up there and if we could just find a few more people to click sign before the city folks start their morning coffee it might actually make them take a second look at this mess. Please just send the link to five neighbors or maybe even your cousin who lives over here so we can hit that big round number and show them we are not just going to let them put this right on the corner of Barry road.

As a resident of this area for 17 years I love it. There is more than enough housing to go around and we were just starting to get back on track improving the area with the Metro North Mall project. I simply do not see a need for this project.
Please call David Brint of lead developer Brinshore Development, LLC and tell him how you feel about this project 1 (847) 562-9400 #5052. The last time he got so much oposition he withdrew permits in the northland please inform him that nothing has changed!!!
This would be an extreme detriment to our Northland Community, let alone the problems it will cause in our school district. No reason to relocate these people north of the river, when you could easily find space south of the river to rebuild these apartments.
ABSOULUTELY NOT! We do not "need" "improvements" like this. This is just another excuse for some developer to make more money and have us taxpayers foot the bill for the infrastructure and all other costs associated with this venture (as noted by many others)
This will increase the crime rate in the northland. And will make it difficult for KCPD to respond to the needs of the northland, since most of the North Patrol and Shoal Creek officers are being dispatched to the inner city to handle calls for service now.
NO!!!!
Stop development. Preserve the natural environment.

I oppose this development, there are no facilities to support this. No transportation, no grocery within walking distance. There are plenty of vacant properties in Kansas City that offer those a place to shop and transportation to work.
