In this Zoning Watch episode of The Kansas City Market Pulse, host Logan Freeman covers the May 2026 Lee's Summit Planning Commission meetings and one absolutely massive long-term proposal.

The Arborside redevelopment plan covers more than 1,000 acres east of I-470, with an estimated total project cost of more than $1.5 billion.

Episode Highlights:

Arborside: A redevelopment area generally east of I-470 between Colbern Road and Woods Chapel Road.
A True Mix: The conceptual plan includes single-family, multifamily and other uses over the long term.
Hazel Grove Elementary: A preliminary plan near Blue Parkway and Colbern Road as schools keep pace with growth.
Rush Funplex: Redevelopment plans moved forward at 900 NW Ward Road.

This is long-term, city-shaping development that could transform eastern Lee's Summit over the next couple of decades.
