Independence opened three new senior living communities over the last year, while Blue Springs has two large communi-ties expected to open by this summer.

The Parkway is a “first of its kind” Continuum of Care senior community at 550 NE Napoleon Drive in Blue Springs. The large campus has three types of units: Indepen-dent living, with studio, one and two bedroom options; assisted living and memory care. A total of 142 units comprise the complex, with 76 independent living apart-ments, 34 assisting living types and 32 memory care units.

The Parkway is expect-ed to open in early June and also features houskee-ping, nursing staff on site 24/7, a full-service restau-rant, an Infinity pool, the-ater room, library, game room and free transporta-tion for its residents.

“It’s the only com-munity like this in Blue Springs,” said Anthony Taylor of Arrow Senior Living, Parkway’s prop-erty management.

On the northern side of Blue Springs is The Benton House. Located on the 1400 block of Northwest Jefferson Drive, the one-level com-plex that is slated to open

in May will have a total of 61 units, 47 of them being assisted living care and 14 specialized memory care. Each unit ranges from 450 to 550 square feet in size.

“The biggest thing (about Benton House) is that it is all one level, meaning not having to take an elevator,” said ShyAnne Forstner of Principal Senior Living Group. “Benton House is very home-like with an area resident kitchen, restaurant style dining, living room with fireplace and beauty shop.”

In Independence, there are The Springs of Independence, Palmer Place Senior Community and Mount Washington Senior Apartments. Two of those are in converted school buildings.

The former Mount Washington School build-ing, at 507 S. Evanston Ave., was converted into 45 one- or two-bedroom apartments that average 700 square feet for quali-fying seniors ages 55 and older. Leasing applicants must meet certain income guidelines.

The low-income hous-ing property features several amenities, such as an auditorium that has a 220-foot projection screen for movies or pre-sentations, fitness room, plus a walking trail and community garden. All the units come furnished

with a 40-inch Smart TV and kitchen appliances. Transportation service is also provided for resi-dents for destinations like a local grocery store or doctor visits.

Palmer Place Senior Community is open for residents 62 years old and older with certain income restrictions. The build-ing once was the Palmer Junior High School at 222 N. Plesant St. and later the school district’s cen-tral offices. It features 41 independent living apart-ments with studio, one or two bedroom options. Each apartment features furnished kitchens, ceiling fans and window cover-ings. Community ameni-ties include a furnished community room, billiards room, business center, library and theater room. The Place also features fitness, social and educa-tional events throughout the year. It is in the same building with the city of Independence’s Palmer Center.

At 19301 E. 50th Terrace is The Springs at Independence. The independent living com-plex features 110 units of either one or two bed-room apartments. Each apartment has its own private patio or balcony with all appliances, plus the complex has fitness room, game center, TV room and scheduled daily activities.

Seniors move into their new homes with the retirement home growth

Each apartment has its own private patio or balcony with all appliances included. Garages are available on a first-come basis. Water, trash, and sewer are free!

We offer inside mailboxes and trash chutes located on each floor, along with a great community room with kitchen and a lending library. Best of all, there are no buy-ins or surcharges.

When it’s done, New Town at Harmony will be a cutting edge showcase of a thoughtful design, which will hold retail spaces, abundant green spaces, pedestrian-friendly streets that wind around crafts-man homes on a 150-acre development plan cen-tered around an elemen-tary school.

It’s just the kind of thing that doesn’t need to happen in east Indepen-dence, according to resi-dents whose homes will face the development on the northwest corner of Truman and Fisher roads.

The development’s lead architect Tim Busse said that kind of push back is to be expected from resi-dents who are concerned

about the roadways they would share with the development’s residents.

“Fisher is a tremen-dous asset,” Busse said. “It’s a beautiful road.”

To protect the integrity of Fisher Road, Busse and the project’s designers elected to close the devel-opment’s access to the road to all traffic except but emergency services.

To keep the character of the road, the houses of New Town at Harmony will be set back 50 feet from Fisher Road. Trees will be planted between the existing homes on the east side of Fisher Road and the development’s residences, which will have garages that will open to west and fronts that face Fisher.

The development was approved late last sum-

mer with a provision to enhance Truman Road. A zoning map was approved Aug. 4.

The builders will break ground on the first phase of the development in the spring, which will mark the beginning of a six-year time frame during which New Town at Har-mony will be built.

The project has endeared itself to city officials and garnered praise from both the Independence Chamber of Commerce and the Independence Economic Development Council as well as Mayor Eileen Weir herself.

New Town is the first component of the much larger Harmony plan for the river valley. The total area covers some 3,000 acres.

New Town primarily homes arriving soon

Top: a group of area residents convened Tuesday night to learn more and discuss the New Town at Harmony development, a 130-acre village planned at the northwest corner of Truman and fischer roads. Those neighboring the project voiced concerns stemming primarily from having the location’s ecosystem -- infrastructural, social and otherwise -- dramatically changed with the development, which may include up to 900 new homes. | Jesus lopez-Gomez/The Examiner BoTTom: This shows existing canals in developments similar to The New Town at Harmony planned for eastern Independence. | submitted

City breaking records and looking forward

In my role as mayor, I have worked to bring a renewed emphasis on economic development within the City of Independence. Perhaps no other issue touches the lives of residents and shapes our community in such a profound manner. Growing our local economy requires a coordinated effort between elected officials, city staff, the Economic Development Council, Chamber of Commerce, school districts and regional partners focusing on business retention and growth, business attraction, and workforce development.

While the Kansas City metropolitan area suffered less in the Great Recession than its global peers, it has been slower to recover from the global financial crises, lagging in median household income, gross domestic product, and available workforce, particularly in STEM-related

(science, technology, engineering, math) fields. Independence is actively participating in regional efforts including the Global Cities Initiative and KC Rising to develop strategies to accelerate our local and regional economic revival.

Despite the slower recovery regionally, Independence experienced an uptick in activity and investment in 2014, signaling

confidence from business owners and developers. The Independence EDC completed 66 projects in 2014, surpassing the previous high of 51 in 2013 and achieving the highest total number of projects since 2007. These projects included 34 business expansions and 32 business attractions, demonstrating that there is a balanced mix of growth and new business development. The Ennovation Center business incubator accounted for 25 of the 32 new businesses announced in 2014.

Capital investment also reached a record high in 2014, topping $168 million. A major contributor to this figure was a $99 million capital outlay by Unilever. Through a collaborative effort between the City, EDC, and State of Missouri, Independence was able to retain the

Unilever plant on 35th Street in the city’s 4th District. Even without the Unilever project 2014 would have been a record-breaking year in capital investment, surpassing the previous high year by $104 million.

As employers continue to implement innovative technologies and computerize processes, Independence has experienced a decline in new job creation since 2008. Although new jobs are decreasing, the number of Independence residents who are employed is on the rise. Current figures show that unemployment is 5.8 percent in Independence, down from 6.4 percent in April 2014. Since April, total employment has risen from 53,130 to 54,641 for a net gain of 1,511 more people becoming employed.

In 2015 we will begin to see the reinvestment on Noland Road as a result of the Community Improvement District recently approved by the City Council. This commitment by the business owners will dramatically impact the appearance and accessibility of the city’s main commercial corridor and further enhance efforts to redevelop Western Independence.

Santa Fe Glass is a fam-ily owned business just off the Historic Independence Square since 1958. It was originally started by Roy Hall and brothers, Kenny & Milo Stallman near the Santa Fe Trail which is how the name was de-rived. Since 1986, Santa Fe Glass has been owned by its current owners Dan & Nancy Donovan, who expanded the company by adding locations in Har-risonville, Odessa, Lee’s Summit, Gladstone and Merriam Kansas. While Santa Fe Glass has always serviced Residential and Commercial glass needs, many people were familiar with the company’s Auto Glass division. In November 2014, the Auto Glass Division of Santa Fe Glass was sold to a nationwide auto glass repair company so Santa Fe Glass could concentrate and expand its Residential & Commercial divisions. As part of focusing on Residential & Commercial glass, Santa Fe Glass has become the Custom Shower Door provider for The Home Depot in the Kansas City area. Santa Fe Glass has been contracted to install glass in numerous commercial storefronts including several area McDonald’s Restaurants. Other services that Santa Fe Glass is able to provide include storm and screen repair, mirrors, desk top glass, window pane and insulated unit glass, picture frame glass, fireplace glass, plexi glass and lexan. Dan and Nancy Donovan, along with all the employees of Santa Fe Glass want to thank you for your past support and look forward to continue to serve your Residential and Commercial glass needs as they have for over 50 years.

Jim & Wendy Allen welcome you to Hawthorn, their Independence B&B. Originally from New England, Jim and Wendy moved to the Midwest in 1983 and subsequently raised their two, now adult, children here. Hawthorn has been a B&B for 15 years, the last nine under Jim & Wendy’s ownership.

Hawthorn is the perfect place for an unforgettable wedding, private dining event, bridal or baby shower or for a fun mother & daughter tea. We offer private dining events for groups, organizations and family gatherings with menus to suit your budget and tastes. New offerings in 2015 include three- and five-course teas!

Weddings are truly unique at Hawthorn, as no two weddings are alike. We enjoy working with the bride to make her special day all she hopes it will be. Comments shared by the guests as they enjoy the elegance of the mansion and estate make the events exceptionally rewarding. Hawthorn prides itself on offer-ing brides countless options to fit their budget and still allows them to have the wedding of their dreams. We have always offered do-it-yourself packages and recently started offering complete packages.

Hawthorn can accommodate up to 40 guests inside the mansion for a sit-down, served meal or as many as 70 if you envision a casual social, mingling type of reception. The front veranda is the perfect atmosphere for that group that is little too large for inside only but you don’t really want a full “lawn party” recep-tion. The front lawn of the estate can accommodate larger weddings in excess of 200 guests with or without a tent. You can choose from several outdoor loca-tions to experience your dream of a “garden wedding” or exchange your vows of commitment on the front steps surrounded by the majesty of the mansion.

By adding guestrooms (we have six) you can turn Hawthorn into your wedding headquarters for the weekend. We can accommodate up to 15 guests in beau-tifully decorated, extra-large guestrooms. All guestrooms have private baths, individual heating and air-conditioning, cable TV, WiFi and come with a hearty full home-cooked breakfast each morning served at your private table.

The ultimate compliment is brides who return for their anniversary, or guests who have experienced the personal hospitality extended to them during their stay.

Hawthorn’s close proximity to the Truman Sports Complex, home of the Kan-sas City Royals and Chiefs makes for the perfect base to spend a day or several days to cheer on your favorite team!

Make Hawthorn your number one choice for wedding ceremonies and recep-tions, rehearsal dinners, bridal and baby showers, “girl’s night out” parties, teas and overnight getaway stays. Events can be scheduled any day of the week.

The area housing industry isn’t close to what it was a decade ago, but it’s steadily growing – and Eastern Jackson County has been getting more than its share of those gains.

Four cities in Eastern Jackson County are in the top 20 metrowide in the issuance of permits to single-family homes, according to 2014 figures compiled by the Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City.

The housing market has settled into what’s sometimes called “the new normal.”

In 2004, single-family home permits for the eight-county area peaked at 12,270, then fell to one-sixth of that in five years, bottoming out at 2,155 in 2009. They have been steadily climb-ing back in the five years since. Also, the market has shifted toward apart-ments and duplexes, and

now roughly as many per-mits to issued for those as for single-family homes.

“We’re doing 4,000 (sin-gle-family) permits now,” said Tom Woods, president of Woods Custom Homes in Blue Springs, a builder for more than 40 years and this year’s chairman of the National Association of Home Builders.

Eastern Jackson Coun-ty accounts for about one-sixth of the single-family homes built in the metro area. Across the entire area, 4,220 permits were issued last year, a gain of 3 percent from 2013. Eastern Jackson County, with more than 700 per-mits, was up 8.75 percent.

The breakdown by city:• Blue Springs issued

165 permits in 2014, up 19 percent from 2013 and up 217 percent from five years earlier. The city was No. 8 metrowide, behind No. 1 Kansas City (841 permits, mostly in Clay and Platte counties), Olathe (505), Overland Park (388), Lee’s Summit (321), Shawnee (203),

Lenexa (188) and Kansas City, Kansas/Wyandotte County (168).

• Grain Valley surged to No. 14 in the area, with 68 permits in 2014. That’s up 48 percent in one year and 277 percent in five years.

• No. 17 Independence issued 57 permits, down 9 permits from 2013 but up 23 percent from five years earlier.

• Lee’s Summit, No. 4 metrowide, issued 321 permits, down 3.8 per-cent from 2013 but up 192 percent from 2009.

• The unincorporated parts of Jackson County had 56 permits last year, up 51 percent from 2013 and up 115 percent from 2009.

• Oak Grove – 18 in 2014, compared with 12 in 2013 and 11 in 2009.

• Lake Lotawana – 12 in 2014, 21 in 2013 and six in 2009.

• Buckner – none in 2014, 2013 or 2009.

• Sugar Creek – none in 2014, one in 2013 and none in 2009.

Neighborhoods in northwestern Indepen-dence gained a new per-manent medical facility in June with the opening of Fairmount Family Medical Care, a primary-care facility located at 606 S. Hardy Avenue on the south side of U.S. 24.

The $4 million and 8,000-square-foot Fair-mount facility, which is under the umbrella of Truman Medical Center-Lakewood, provides a variety of medical and outpatient services, such as acute care needs, new-born and pediatric care, chronic disease manage-ment, as well as group and family counseling, child adolescent services and senior treatment pro-grams. The ribbon-cutting grand opening was in September. It replaced a temporary facility that opened in late 2012.

In comments read at the ceremony, Council Member Marcie Gragg said that Fairmount helps fill a gap left behind when the former

MCI and Independence Regional hospitals were consolidated into the new Centerpoint Medi-cal Center facility several years earlier. Regional had been on Truman Road in western Inde-pendence.

In August, Swope Health Independence moved into a new larger clinic at 11320 Truman Road, replacing the one that had opened 12 years earlier on the 1600 block of U.S. 24. The $3 mil-lion facility has two full-time health providers.

The iconic Stone Arch Bridge, a gateway to western Independence which carries Blue Ridge Boulevard over Truman Road and separates the city from Kansas City and unincorporated Jackson County, was rededicated in May after a six-month refurbishment funded by the county.

According the county officials, the project came in under budget and ahead of schedule at $378,475. The bridge was originally built in 1906.

In the spring, the council viewed a pre-

sentation of the Tru-man Green Gateway Plan, a visionary project designed to revamp the Truman Road cor-ridor. The study which produced the plan was funded by a Mid-Amer-ica Regional Council (MARC) grant, and the plan centered on mak-ing Truman Road more pedestrian and cyclist friendly and encouraging business and long-term housing developments. The design firm esti-mated the city’s portion of the proposed project (from Stone Arch Bridge east to Winner Road) at more than $4.6 million. The county would handle the portion of the project from Stone Arch Bridge west to I-435. The pro-posed project is still in the planning stages.

Various non-profit groups have continued revitalization efforts in northwest Indepen-dence neighborhoods by using federal funds to raze or refurbish houses for owner occupation, including a 12 Blocks West project on Overton Avenue.
