Last week, the subject of Steateries appeared to be a bone of contention for a couple Shawnee City Commissioners as the city continues to implement elements that align with its Comprehensive Plan.
Shawnee City Commissioners Bob Weaver (Ward 2) and Ben Salter (Ward 6) voiced opposition to hindering any Main Street parking, which Streateries could potentially do. Shawnee City Planner Rebecca Blaine said it shouldn t be a problem because downtown has ample parking.
The guidelines on Streateries goes with the city s parklet resolution that was passed in 2018, Shawnee City Planner Rebecca Blaine said. Parklets line up with goals in the Comp Plan, which was adopted in October 2019 and is anticipated to guide the city s growth and development over the next 20 years.

Shawnee City Planner Rebecca Blaine said two single-family homes are being constructed at 1601 and 1603 N. Broadway by local contractor Greg Brown Homes. The residential projects are sandwiched between First Christian Church s parking lot and Graves Floral on a plot of land that has remained empty for decades.
Each home, yielding 2,395 square feet, is expected to cost $250,000 to build, according to the permit filed in January.
