LEAWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION
The Leawood Planning Commission is a nine member non-partisan body whose members are appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the Governing Body.

The Planning Commission prepares the Comprehensive Plan that is used as a general guide for the development of the community. The Comprehensive Plan is reviewed and updated annually as part of the commission's ongoing process of evaluating trends and patterns. The Commission also reviews all zoning, special use permit, and site plan and plat applications prior to making recommendations to the governing body for final action.

The regular scheduled public meetings of the Planning Commission are held at 6:00 PM on the fourth Tuesday of each month in the City Council chambers, 4800 Town Center Drive. The Commission may also conduct a study session followed by a meeting on the second Tuesday of each month.

Anyone wishing to appear on the Planning Commission agenda or study session agenda should contact Planning Services at (913) 339-6700.
