Downtown Blue Springs
The City of Blue Springs just completed in the Spring of 2007 an extensive design and development (D&D) visioning process that began unfolding in the summer of 2006 and involved residents, businesses and property owners of downtown Blue Springs, in addition to elected officials, planning commissioners and city staff.

The result has been a D&D use guideline that is empowered by rezoning to allow for appropriate development to support a revitalized downtown environment. One benefit is a streamlined process to understand and approve permitted design and development uses without the need for public hearings, except in the case of exceptions to the development guideline. Interest is already underway with plans filed for building improvements and development plans for properties located in the heart of downtown Blue Springs.
