7. Other New Business
Case No. P21008 - A Replat of Lot 11 and Lot 1-A of Capital Mall Subdivision. Application filed by
Capital Mall J.C. 1 LLC to replat Lot 11 and Lot 1-A for the purpose of dividing Lot 11 into three
separate lots (Lot A, Lot B, and Lot C) and placing a portion of Lot 1-A into newly made Lot 11-A
(Starbucks location) and Lot 11-C (future development). Both Lot 11 and Lot 1-A are east of the West
Truman Boulevard and Country Club Drive intersection. The property is described as Lot 11 and Lot 1 -
A of Capital Mall Subdivision Jefferson City, Cole County, Missouri. Central Missouri Professional
Services, Inc.(consultant).
Ms. Bliss stated the purpose of the request is to divide lot 11 into three lots, and to include a portion of
the lot for the main mall building, Lot 1-A. Ms. Bliss described that an existing Pizza Hut restaurant
exists on one of the proposed lots, a Starbucks is currently under construction on another, and the
third lot is available for future development. She stated that proposed lot 11-C would not have street
frontage, and that the Board of Adjustment had approved a variance from the Zoning Code
requirement for street frontage but that the Planning and Zoning Commission would also need to
review a variance from the Subdivision Code requirement for street frontage.
Mr. Wade gave his staff report and stated that most infrastructure are already in place and would
recommend approval.
Mr. Paul Sampson, 2500 East McCarty, with Central Missouri Professional Services presented his
case. He stated that since Farmers Holding has redeveloped the property and the Sears wing and
parking lot was sold, the rest of the area needs to be platted out. This will allow each separate building
to have its own lot associated with it. This will help them keep property taxes separate and allow the
business to sell in the future if they desire.
Mr. Sampson explained the street front variance for Lot 11-C and said everything within the mall is
operated by a master development agreement that was created when the Farmer’s still owned the
property. That agreement allows all lots to have access across all lots and utilities are allowed across
all lots. Therefore street front access is not needed.
Ms. Bliss stated that staff recommends approval of the proposed replat of Lot 11 and Lot 1-A of the
Capital Mall Subdivision in addition to a street frontage variance from the Subdivision Code.
Ms. Fretwell moved and Ms. Quigg seconded to approve a variance from the Subdivision Code
requirement that all lots have street frontage to permit Lot 11-C to have no street frontage. The motion
passed 6-0 with the following votes:
Aye: Quigg, Cotton, Dutoi, Record, Fretwell, and Hawk
Nay: None
Ms. Fretwell moved and Mr. Dutoi seconded to approve the Final Subdivision Plat of A Replat of Lot 11
and Lot 1-A of Capital Mall Subdivision. The motion passed 6-0 with the following votes:
Aye: Quigg, Cotton, Dutoi, Record, Fretwell, and Hawk
Nay: None
8. Other Business
Private Street Name Proposal: An application has been submitted by the Jefferson City School
District for the creation of 2 private street names for driveway additions off of Thomas Jefferson Middle
School / Lawson Elementary Driveway located at Fairgrounds Road/West Edgewood Drive. The main
new drive is proposed as Patriot Drive and the other road would be named Lion Way.
Ms. Bliss stated the property where the new street names have been proposed are two schools and a
day care center that would be directly impacted by the creation of the two new streets.
Mr. Paul Sampson, 2500 East McCarty, with Central Missouri Professional Services presented his
case. He stated the Jefferson City School District constructed the two new drives this past summer to
help alleviate traffic congestion on Fairgrounds Rd. They have asked that street names be assigned to
these roads for wayfinding needs.
Ms. Bliss stated staff recommends approval of the suggested two names, Lion Way and Patriot Drive,
to be designated for private streets belonging to the Jefferson City School District located east of the
Fairgrounds Road and West Edgewood Drive intersection.
Ms. Hawk moved and Ms. Cotten seconded to approve two new private street names, Lion Way and
Patriot Drive, to be located near the Fairgrounds Road and West Edgewood Drive intersection as
proposed by the Jefferson City School District. The motion passed 6-0 with the following votes:
Aye: Quigg, Cotton, Dutoi, Record, Fretwell, and Hawk
Nay: None
