Basehor Planning Commission to weigh 47-unit Chestnut Villas plan Tuesday

BASEHOR - The Basehor Planning Commission will consider a final development plan and plat for Chestnut Villas, a 47-unit housing development, when it meets at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, at City Hall, according to the agenda packet. The site sits south of Parallel Road and west of N. 152nd Street.

The plan calls for 34 townhome units in nine buildings on a new cul-de-sac off Chestnut Street, 12 single-family homes facing N. 152nd and one existing home, the staff report shows. Staff flags drainage because downstream areas have flooded in heavy rain, and recommends approval with three conditions. The vote goes to the City Council as a recommendation.

Commissioners will also hold public hearings on ending the gravel-driveway allowance in R-O and R-1 zones and dropping minimum business parking, and on barring shipping and storage containers as accessory structures.
