Fuck that guy. "I'm going to leave this property a shit hole until you approve my shit hole project".
There are people whose brains won't process not having a car, or any home or business not having its' own parking. Many of these humans have not been to a really big city.beautyfromashes wrote:...The committee said they had never heard of a neighborhood asking for more density.

http://northeastnews.net/pages/39992-2/Brinshore Development’s affordable housing efforts in the Historic Northeast will continue into 2019 with the completion of three new developments comprising nearly 120 combined units.
Roughly eight months after Brinshore Development held a October 2017 ribbon-cutting ceremony for the 30-unit, mixed-income Pendleton Flats complex – its first Paseo Gateway housing project in the Historic Northeast – progress continues at a handful of other Brinshore projects in and around Independence Avenue.
The 38-unit Pendleton ArtsBlock project (Independence Ave. and Olive) is the furthest along, with the footings and foundation already being installed. The 57-unit Quinlan Place (8th and Paseo) and 22-unit Quinlan Row developments (8th and Woodland) are not far behind, and all three projects are expected to be completed by the spring of 2019.
...
While Pendleton Flats, Pendleton ArtsBlock, Quinlan Place and Quinlan Row are part of the wide-ranging Paseo Gateway project, Brinshore has also joined an independent renovation partnership at Maple Flats (511 Maple), a three-building, 72-unit complex set to deliver refurbished, affordable units this month.
“When you’re making the kind of investments that were made in the Pendleton Heights neighborhood, you want to make sure that other buildings get redeveloped,” Brint said. “We’re trying to continue the positive momentum.”
For now, Brinshore is content with the 219 new and renovated affordable units that will be available in the Historic Northeast by the spring of 2019. That said, he didn’t completely rule out the possibility of future investments in the area, if the right opportunity becomes available.
Their numbers sound right for new construction adding in overhead and profit. I see no reason to dispute the required rental rates.Neighborhood leaders in Pendleton Heights oppose the project because it does not provide the second-floor housing that neighborhood leaders would prefer. However, the developer behind the project said during the July 10 meeting that second-floor apartment units would not be economically feasible without requiring rent of $590 for 300 square-foot studios, $916 for 510 square-foot one-bedrooms, and $1,122 for two-bedroom units that would average 645 square feet.
The community may grumble but if a new type of business opens I see no reason people wouldn't shop there. This is just hyperbole.“If the community does not embrace a project, then the project doesn’t happen,” said 1st District Councilman Heather Hall during the June 20 committee meeting. “If it does happen, then it’s not successful, because the community will not shop there.”

This project is bizarre. How was was city staff unaware it was awarded incentives (Chp 353 from LCRA)? That seems like a really broken incentive system if a statutory body can just award incentives (meaning redirect city tax dollars) and the taxing jurisdictions aren't even notified. Also, this developer just seems to blow off meetings and didn't show up for either of the scheduled PZE hearings.

1) let the property sit and “let it grow weeds” for 20 years as the parcel appreciates in value; 2) sue the City of Kansas City, Missouri for denying his client’s property rights; or 3) let his legal representation work out a separate agreement with the City.

They own the land and know they can legally make it into a parking lot and no one in the neighborhood can say anything.alejandro46 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 26, 2018 12:54 pm
This developer really has no clue what they're doing, do they . . .
