Last week was fairly quiet in the Legal Record with several repeat publications. Here’s what stood out:

1️⃣ Westchester Square CID
Transparency: 7.5/10 | Legality: 9/10

The proposed Community Improvement District (CID) for Westchester Square continues through the required publication process.

Key Points:

• Proposed 1% CID sales tax for up to 22 years
• Estimated project cost: $26.76 million
• No changes from last week’s notice.

2️⃣ Ordinance 6060 – Medical & Dental Clinics
Transparency: 8/10 | Legality: 10/10

Updates the zoning code to allow medical, dental, and certain personal service businesses as permitted uses in Neighborhood Office (NP-O) and General Office (CP-O) districts without requiring a Special Use Permit.

3️⃣ Ordinance 6059 – Public Offenses
Transparency: 8.5/10 | Legality: 10/10

Updates portions of Lenexa’s Public Offenses Code to align with Kansas law, including theft language, smoking restrictions, and removing an outdated ordinance now covered by state felony statutes.

4️⃣ Radisson Hotel
Transparency: 9/10 | Legality: 10/10

The City officially declared the former Radisson unsafe and ordered the owner to repair or remove the structure under an established timeline. If deadlines aren’t met, the City may complete the work and recover the costs.

📣 Public Hearing to Watch
July 7, 2026
Westchester Square Community Improvement District (CID)

The City Council will hold a public hearing on whether to create a new CID that would add a 1% sales tax for up to 22 years to help fund improvements at Westchester Square.
