7. Kenwood Place
Peter Jarvis of The Jarvis Company requested Council approval of the Kenwood Place
preliminary plat, along with a Comprehensive Plan amendment and zoning map
amendment. Kenwood Place consists of 30 townhome units, two commercial lots and four
outlots on 27.04 acres of land located west of Kenwood Trail and north of 172nd Street.
Mr. Olson stated the Comprehensive Plan amendment would re-guide a portion of the
property from Commercial to Low/Medium Density Residential. The property is proposed
to be rezoned from C-3, General Commercial District, to Planned Unit Development. Mr.
Olson explained that with the realignment of 172nd Street to Kenwood Trail, the property
remaining on the west side of the new Kenyon Avenue is better suited to the proposed
residential use, especially given the wetlands on the site. The proposed Kenwood Place
townhome development is similar to the Rock Island townhomes and will be a
complimentary development to the existing residential and commercial uses in the area. He
pointed out that approximately 42% of the existing trees will be preserved with this
development.
Council Member Swecker expressed several concerns that she has with this preliminary plat.
She asked about street width and parking, cul-de-sac length, setbacks and other concessions
that were made in order to make this development fit the site. Mr. Jarvis and Mr. Olson
addressed her concerns.
Motion was made by Anderson, seconded by LaBeau, to approve:
• Resolution No. 16-100 approving the Kenwood Place preliminary plat
• Findings of Fact and Decision related to Comprehensive Plan and zoning amendments
• Resolution No. 16-101 approving an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to re-guide
property from Commercial to Low/Medium Density Residential
• Ordinance No. 968 rezoning property from C-3, General Commercial District, to
Planned Unit Development District and Summary Ordinance No. 968 for publication
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes – Swecker, Anderson, LaBeau, Little

Farm, which consists of an 18,000 square foot PetSmart retail building. PetSmart will be
located in the southwest quadrant of 160th Street and Elmhurst Lane, north of Hy-Vee.
Consulting Planner Dan Licht presented the preliminary and final plat, along with the
vacation of underlying public drainage and utility easements. The plat consists of one
buildable lot and four outlots for future development. The Spirit of Brandtjen Farm Planned
Unit Development allows for commercial uses, subject to specific performance standards.
Mr. Licht provided an overview of the site plan, vehicle access and parking, landscaping,
signage and building design. The trash enclosure will be constructed of the same brick
material as the principal building and shall comply with the Zoning Ordinance
requirements.

Brandtjen Farm Commercial 1st Addition was continued from the July 18, 2016 City Council
