AGENDA ITEM REVIEW SHEET
Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Rhonda Dunn, Finance Director
Consent Item Description: Consider approval of transfer of $287,411.98 from the RHID Fund
to the Debt Service Fund for the 2026 principal and interest payments for 2025A.
Background: The City follows a procedure of requesting approval from the City Council for any
inter-fund transfer.
The RHID Special Benefit District revenues are collected through Johnson County as part of
annual property tax payments. Once remitted to the City, these revenues are deposited into the
RHID Fund. Historically and per standard governmental accounting practice, all bond principal
and interest payments are made through the City’s Debt Service Fund. This structure aligns with
how all current and past City bond issues have been administered. In 2026, the City formally
established the RHID Fund as a standalone fund to clearly classify and track RHID revenues.
Because the 2025A bond issue is supported by RHID revenues, the City will budget an annual
transfer from the RHID Fund to the Debt Service Fund to cover the required debt payment. This
mirrors existing practice for all other bond issues where the revenue source is held in a fund
different from the Debt Service Fund.
Staff Recommendation:
• Staff recommends approval of the transfer of the required RHID revenues from the RHID
Fund to the Debt Service Fund for the 2025A annual bond payment.
Alternatives:
• Deny the transfer and pay from the Consolidated Highway Fund as approved.
Legal Review: Legal review
Funding Source: This transfer supports the scheduled 2025A debt service payment. No
unanticipated financial impacts are expected.
Finance Director Approval:
Suggested Motion: Motion to approve the transfer of funds from the RHID Fund to the Debt
Service Fund for the 2025A debt service payment of $287,411.98.
AGENDA ITEM REVIEW SHEET
Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Alysen Abel, City Engineer
Consent Item Description: Consider approval of an off-site drainage easement associated with
the Hidden Hills 4th Plat subdivision improvements.

easement to construct the necessary public infrastructure. Any fees associated with recording the
easement will be paid by the developer.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends the acceptance of the drainage easement.
Alternatives:
• Accept the drainage easement.
• Provide direction to staff related to this item.
Legal Review: The easement has been reviewed and approved by Spencer Low, City Attorney.
Attachments:
• Drainage Easement
Funding Source: There is no budgetary impact associated with this action.
Finance Director Approval:
Suggested Motion: Move to approve the off-site drainage easement associated with the Hidden
Hills 4th Plat subdivision improvements.

AGENDA ITEM REVIEW SHEET
Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Alysen Abel, City Engineer
Consent Item Description: Consider approval of Task Order #1 with BG Consultants for the
design services for the Bucyrus Sewer project.
Background: The City of Spring Hill is working directly with Miami County on the Bucyrus
Sewer project. Miami County contracted directly with BG Consultants for the design and Timco
Construction for the construction of the interceptor and pump station improvements primarily
located along 223rd Street to serve the residents of Bucyrus. Once the project is installed, the City
has committed to take over the ownership and maintenance of this sewer main.
In January 2025, the City Council approved professional service agreements for on-call
engineering and architectural services. BG Consultants was one of the firms selected.
Additional design work was requested by City staff outside the scope of the original Bucyrus
Sewer project. Since BG Consultants was originally contracted by Miami County and had access
to the original design and drawing documents, the City staff worked directly with BG Consultants
to perform the additional design separate from the County’s contract. Task Order #1 reflects the
additional engineering assistance based on the City’s request.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of a task order with BG Consultants for the
additional engineering services specifically requested by City staff associated with the Bucyrus
Sewer project.
Alternatives:
• Approve Task Order #1
• Provide direction to staff related to the task order
Legal Review: The task order has been reviewed and approved by Spencer Low, City Attorney.
Attachments:
• Task Order #1
Funding Source: There is funding available in the professional services line item in the Sewer
Fund this expense.

Suggested Motion: Move to approve Task Order #1 with BG Consultants for the design services
for the Bucyrus Sewer project.

Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Alysen Abel, City Engineer
Consent Item Description: Consider approval of Task Order #2026-01 with Renaissance
Infrastructure Consulting (RIC) for the survey services for the sanitary sewer main near Brycliff
Commercial.
Background: The Planning Commission and City Council previously approved the site plan for
the Brycliff Commercial development. The developer contracted with RIC to perform the survey
and engineering design for the development project.
With the review of the construction plans, staff found that there was an existing sanitary sewer
system located to the east of the development. Although this is a public sewer line, there are no
sewer easements. In an effort to get accurate information related to this sanitary sewer main and
obtain the necessary easements for long-term maintenance, the City needs to contract with a
professional survey.
In January 2025, the City contracted with several consulting firms to provide on-call engineering
and architectural services. Renaissance Infrastructure Consulting (RIC) was one of the firms
selected.
Since RIC had the existing information from working on the Brycliff development, staff decided
to contract directly with them to save time and money rather than engaging a new consultant. The
estimate provided by the consultant in the amount of $2,600 includes the survey of the existing
sanitary sewer and legal description for easement acquisition.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of a task order with RIC for the survey
services for the off-site sanitary sewer main near the Brycliff development.
Alternatives:
• Approve Task Order 2026-01 with RIC for the survey services near Brycliff Commercial
• Provide direction to staff related to this item.
Legal Review: The task order has been reviewed and approved by Spencer Low, City Attorney.

Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Jacob Speer, Public Works Director
Formal Item Description: Consider approval of a resolution adopting a Municipal Separate
Storm Sewer System (MS4) Stormwater Management Plan for the City of Spring Hill.
Background: A Municipal Storm Sewer System (MS4) is a network of stormwater conveyance
such as streets, gutters, ditches, storm drains, detention basins, and underground pipe systems that
connect and discharge directly into a local body of water. The City of Spring Hill maintains the
public storm sewers within the City limits and is considered an MS4.
MS4s are regulated under the Clean Water Act through the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES), requiring municipalities to obtain permits and implement programs
to reduce pollution. Since 2025, the City staff has been working directly with KDHE to develop
our permit and draft plan, which is included as Attachment 1.
The MS4 permit outlines the specific requirements that the City must comply with. The
information included in the permit acts as the minimum requirements for the City for regulating
the stormwater system. The Stormwater Management Plan is a supplemental document to the
permit created by the City. This document outlines the baseline activities that the City will
complete each year to comply with the permit requirements. Each year, the City will submit an
Annual Report to KDHE that will provide a report of the activities completed to demonstrate
compliance with the Stormwater Management Plan and MS4 permit.
The City must adopt a Stormwater Management Plan. Attachment 2 includes a resolution to adopt
the Stormwater Management Plan. The City staff wanted to take the time to create this plan, host
a public hearing, and adopt a resolution before submitting to KDHE. KDHE has extended the
deadline for the City to submit the plan to September 1st.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends the City Council approve a resolution to adopt the
Stormwater Management Plan as outlined by staff.
Alternatives:
• Adopt the Stormwater Management Plan
• Provide feedback to staff related to the plan
Legal Review: The resolution has been reviewed and approved by Spencer Low, City Attorney.
Attachments:
• Proposed Stormwater Management Plan
• Proposed Resolution
Funding Source: Although there is no direct budgetary impact associated with this item, however
elements of the Stormwater Management Plan will be incorporated into the City’s budget moving
forward.

SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
The Stormwater Management Plan (SMP) was created to help reduce the discharge of pollutants in
stormwater runoff from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) within regulated areas
of Spring Hill, Kansas (Map of Permitted Area included in Appendix A). It outlines stormwater
program activities, monitoring requirements, reporting requirements, and responsible parties for
implementing this work.
The SMP was prepared in compliance with Kansas Permit Number M-MC45-SN01 (hereinafter “the
Permit”) issued to the City of Spring Hill by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment
(KDHE) to fulfill requirements of the Clean Water Act.
Permit Effective Date: August 1, 2025
Permit Expiration Date: December 31, 2029
The SMP is designed to:
1. Reduce the discharge of pollutants from the MS4 to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP),
2. Implement the Six (6) Minimum Control Measures as listed in Part I Section C of the Permit,
a. The Six Minimum Control Measures (MCM) are:
i. Public Education and Outreach;
ii. Public Participation and Involvement;
iii. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination;
iv. Construction Site Stormwater Runoff Control;
v. Post-Construction Stormwater Management in New Development and
Redevelopment Project; and
vi. Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations.
3. Implement Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce to the MEP the discharge of the
Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) regulated pollutants from the MS4 to the watershed of the
impaired stream and/or lake as listed in the Permit.
4. Satisfy the requirements of the Permit, the Clean Water Act, and the Kansas surface water
quality statutes and regulations.
Implementation of BMPs consistent with the provisions of the SMP document and this Permit
constitutes compliance with the standard of reducing pollutants to the Maximum Extent
Practicable (MEP).
The overall coordination of activities outlined in this Plan will be the responsibility of the City of
Spring Hill. The City will report on completed activities and submit all documents related to the
Permit, Stormwater Management Plan, and Annual Report to KDHE.

3.4 MINIMUM CONTROL MEASURE 4 (MCM 4) - CONSTRUCTION SITE STORMWATER RUNOFF
CONTROL (CSSRC)
Description
MCM 4 includes developing, implementing, and enforcing a program to reduce pollutants in any
stormwater runoff to the MS4 for construction sites disturbing one acre or more, including areas
that are less than one acre but are part of a larger common plan for development that disturbs one
or more acre. KDHE requires this program to include:
Where permittees have the authority to do so, ordinances or resolutions shall be enacted to
require erosion and sediment controls, as well as sanctions to ensure compliance. The City
passed erosion and sediment control regulations with Ordinance 2011-18 and 2003-32 to
regulate runoff pollution from active construction sites disturbing more than one acre.
Requirements for construction site owners or operators to implement erosion and sediment
control BMPs.
Requirements for construction site owners or operators to control waste at construction
sites that are likely to cause adverse impacts to water quality.
Procedures for site plan review which incorporate consideration of potential water quality
impacts. Procedures for receipt and consideration of information submitted by the public.
Procedures for site inspection and enforcement of control measures.
Benefit
If left uncontrolled, land disturbance activities can generate significant loads of sediment which
can impact both adjoining properties and downstream water bodies. Fortunately, effective controls
are easy and cost- effective to implement.
Compliance
Compliance with the construction site stormwater runoff control minimum control measure
requires implementation of BMPs in Part I., Section C.4 of the Permit for a minimum of 4 points total
on an annual basis for each calendar year.
A table containing the BMP summary, the measurable goal, the implementation schedule, and
points per activity is included in Appendix D: Construction Site Stormwater Runoff Controls
(CSSRC) BMP Table of the Permit.
11 | P a g e
A description of each planned BMP is included in Table 3.4 below. Additional information and
examples are provided after the table.

BMP Summary
Points Accumulated
Implement a requirement for Soil Erosion and
Sediment Control (SESC) Plan for any land
disturbance sites which are either equal to or
greater than 1 acre or for which there is
construction activity disturbing less than one acre
which is part of a larger common plan of
development or sale that in total disturbs more
than one acre or more.
Develop and adopt a design manual for erosion
and sediment control BMPs which are required to
be used on sites disturbing sites equal to or greater
than 1 acre or for construction activity disturbing
less than one acre which is part of a larger
common plan of development or sale that in total
disturbs one acre or more.
Establish effective requirements for construction
sites to control wastes. Develop through ordinance
or other enforceable means requirements for
construction site operators or owners. At a
minimum, control shall be imposed to prevent
entry into the MS4 for the following:
- Discarded building materials
- Concrete
- Truck washout chemicals
- Litter, and
- Sanitary waste.

The City requires implementation of Soil Erosion and Sediment Control (SESC) Plans for applicable
construction activities through adopted municipal code provisions and development regulations
through Ord 2011-18.
12 | P a g e
CSSRC - 2
Erosion and sediment control requirements are implemented through City ordinances and adopted
technical standards, including the City’s BMP manual, which is available through the municipal
code and engineering resources.
The City plans to periodically review and update the BMP manual to incorporate additional
practices, clarify requirements, and ensure alignment with current regulatory guidance and best
management practices.
CSSRC - 5
The City plans to adopt enforceable requirements for construction site waste management. These
requirements will, at a minimum, address the prevention of construction-related pollutants
entering the MS4, including discarded building materials, concrete washout, truck washout, litter,
and sanitary waste.
13 | P a g e
3.5 MINIMUM CONTROL MEASURE 5 (MCM 5) - POST-CONSTRUCTION STORMWATER
MANAGEMENT IN NEW DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT (PCSM)
Description
MCM 5 requires the development, implementation, and enforcement of a program to address postconstruction stormwater runoff controls from both new development and redevelopment sites
after development sites disturbing one acre or more, including projects that are less than one acre
but are part of a larger common plan for development that disturbs one or more acre. KDHE requires
the program to include:
For permittees that have the authority, ordinances or resolutions to address postconstruction runoff from new development and redevelopment projects to the extent
allowable under state and local law.
BMPs to prevent or minimize adverse water quality impacts.
Strategies which include a combination of structural and/or non-structural BMPs
appropriate for the municipality.
Means to ensure adequate long-term operation and maintenance of BMPs.
Benefit
Conversion of native landscape to developed landscape increases both the volume of runoff and
pollutant loads in stormwater. The consequences can include erosion, flooding, and pollution,
impacting both downstream property owners and public infrastructure. Stormwater controls
included in development sites can help reduce impacts and costs to both private property owners
and the public.
Compliance
Compliance with the post-construction stormwater management in new development and
redevelopment minimum control measure requires implementation of BMPs in Part I., Section C.5
of the Permit for a minimum of 5 points each calendar year.
A table containing the BMP summary, the measurable goal, the implementation schedule, and
points per activity is included in Appendix E: Post-Construction Stormwater Management in New
Development and Redevelopment Projects (PCSM) BMP Table of the Permit.
A description of each planned BMP is included in Table 3.5 below. Additional information and
examples are provided after the table.

without advanced approval by the City Administrator, the finance department
shall work with the Department Director and City Officers to resolve the situation.
5. All city employees authorized to conduct purchasing activities on behalf of the
City of Spring Hill shall adhere to the highest degree of ethical standards. No
employee shall engage in or permit any illegal or improper purchasing practice.
Further, any employee having knowledge of any questionable practices shall
immediately report this knowledge to their respective Department Director or the

D. Competition: The City’s competitive bidding threshold is $10,000, at which
competition via bids and quotes from multiple vendors are required before purchase
of a good or service or professional service. The $10,000 level is determined by the
total value of the purchase, agreement, or lease. The Finance Director with the
purchasing Director and with consultation with the City Administrator and City
Attorney as appropriate, shall determine whether to utilize the RFP process or obtain
quotes.

contract, interlocal agreements, and contracts for the City’s lease or purchase of real
property must be authorized by the City Council and signed by the Mayor. The City

Kansas. Department Directors and City Officers are responsible for obtaining the
latest tax-exempt certificate from the finance department and remit it to the
appropriate vendor prior to every purchase.
H. Budgetary Control: With the assistance of the Finance Department, each
Department is responsible for adherence to their approved budget. Funds may not
be obligated or expended that exceed the Governing Body’s approved budget.
1.02
LOCAL VENDOR USE AND RESTRICTIONS (PREFERENCE POLICY)
Whenever a vendor meets price and performance requirements for supplies, materials,
and equipment acquired through bids, a bid from a local business may be selected over
the lowest responsive and responsible bid only if:
a) The vendor’s business location is physically located within the City of Spring Hill.
b) The quality, suitability, and usability of the supplies, materials, and/or equipment
are equal to that of the lowest responsible bidder; and
c) The amount of the bid for the local business does not vary more than 2% and
does not exceed $10,000 above the amount of the lowest responsible bid. Such
variance shall be calculated based on the total contract price.
Purchases which grant a financial benefit to a City of Spring Hill employee or a member
of the City of Spring Hill Governing Body are prohibited unless disclosed through a
statement of financial interest, solicited and authorized in compliance with this Policy and
the City Employee Handbook, City ordinances and Municipal Code and the laws of the
State of Kansas including K.S.A. §§ 75-4304 and 75-4305. All City of Spring Hill
employees should promptly disclose any changes in financial interest as soon as
practical.
The local preference described in this Section shall not apply to use of federal funds or
other governmental funds when the use of such funds prohibits the application of local
preference policies.
1.03
PURCHASING PROCESS
A. General Purchasing Information
Departments are responsible for initiating and managing their purchases. The Finance
Department is available as a resource.
6
B. Purchase Orders
Purchase orders are required for all invoiced purchases of goods, materials, or supplies
and services with an expected expenditure of City funds of more than $10,000 unless
otherwise exempted. The following items are exempted from purchase orders:
a) The expenditures are routine monthly obligations (i.e., utility bills, phone bills)
b) The expenditure is debt related (i.e., debt payments, costs of issuances
related to bond sales)
c) Check requests with supporting documentation (i.e., start up cash for events,
approved reimbursements to employees, customer refunds, travel advances,
petty cash reimbursements)
d) Contracted Professional Services (e.g., auditing services, City engaged

Finance Director may sign purchase orders outside the Finance Department for up to
$25,000. The City Administrator may sign purchase orders for up to $50,000. Purchase
orders that exceed $50,000 require approval from the Governing Body.
When an invoice does not match the approved purchase order, the Change Order
process defined in Section 5 of this policy is followed to insure proper approval.
C. Purchasing Card
To improve the efficiency in processing purchases under $5,000 the City’s Purchasing
Card is preferred for any vendor that accepts them. Each Purchasing Card is issued to a
named individual who is responsible for all purchases made with the card. Purchases
are exempt from sales tax in the State of Kansas. See the City of Spring Hill Employee
Purchasing Card Handbook for instructions and procedures.
All use of Purchasing Cards is subject to the City of Spring Hill Purchasing Card
Handbook.
D. Fuel Purchasing Card
The City utilizes fuel purchasing cards to expedite operations. Department Directors are
responsible for monthly reconciliation of fuel card statements and providing proper
documentation for purchases on the statement. The department director will sign each
statement to approve the fuel charges.
E. Claims Voucher
A claims voucher is a document that may be used to authorize the Finance Department
to issue a check to a vendor when no receipt or invoice is available and when use of a
City Purchasing Card is not possible. Examples of when a claim voucher is used may
include but are not limited to: Bond & interest payments, customer refunds,
intergovernmental payments, postage, taxes, dues and subscriptions, and petty cash
7
claims over $50. Claims vouchers are approved for payment in accordance with the final
approval authority set forth in this policy under Section 1.01. C, Purchasing Authority.
1.04
EMERGENCY PURCHASES

policies and procedures would threaten: (1) the functioning of City government; (2)
the preservation or protection of property, machinery, or equipment; and/or (3) the
health or safety of any person.
B. In case of an emergency as defined above, the City Administrator may waive all
provisions for competitive purchasing. Emergency needs shall be purchased by
informal open market procedures as expeditiously and as close to normal
commercial prices as circumstances will allow. When an emergency expenditure is
over $50,000, a report of the circumstances necessitating the emergency action shall
be presented to the Governing Body as soon as practicable, preferably at the
following meeting of the Governing Body.
C. A department director may directly purchase any essential supplies or services. As
soon as practical, the department director shall notify the City Administrator of the
situation. The department shall submit a claims voucher with written justification for
the emergency purchase.
SECTION 2: SOURCE SELECTION, COMPETITIVE BIDDING AND AWARDS
2.01
GENERAL PROVISIONS AND PURCHASING OVERVIEW
Competition is the defined process in which multiple willing and able firms compete
openly, equally and without restriction to supply equivalent goods or services to the City.
The City seeks to maximize competition within the competitive procurement process to
affect cost savings and to provide more value for the tax dollar. When a department
reasonably anticipates that annual aggregate totals for specific goods or services may
exceed the limits defined by these purchasing procedures, Purchasing should be
contacted for the purpose of establishing a Term and Supply contract.
2.02
SOURCE SELECTION
Exhibit A provides a matrix as quick reference for the source selection and applicable
purchasing processes. Purchases may not be artificially divided to circumvent the
normal purchasing process.
2.03
PROCUREMENT
A. Professional Services
Professional services may include, but are not limited to, legal, engineering, financial,
medical, information technology, consulting, or information technology services. Such
complex or technical services may be long-term for continuity. Contracts for such
services may be written to say that services will continue until terminated by one of the
8
parties. Every five years professional service engagements should be reviewed and
request for proposals, qualifications, or information should be considered; provided that,
contracts for professional services or outsourcing contractual officers are subject to
Mayoral appointment and consent of the City Council.
The Mayor, in consultation with the City Attorney or the City Administrator, or as set forth
in the Spring Hill Municipal Code, may retain outside counsel.
B. On-Call Professional Services Agreements
The City may engage in professional services agreements with Engineering, Procurement, and
Construction firms to provide specialty services through an On-Call contract relationship. The
process will be commenced with a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) as defined in Section 2.04
of this policy. After review by a selection committee, staff will provide a recommendation to the
City Council. The City will enter into an agreement with the selected vendor(s) and task orders
shall be executed for work engaged with the On-Call consultants with the approval authorities to
match those outlined in the Purchasing Policy. The City Engineer will retain a list of prequalified consultants selected for the On-Call program.
Depending on the estimated contract fee, the following process shall be followed:
• For projects less than $10,000, a Department Director can initiate the work associated
with a task order, with a request to City Council placed on the Consent Agenda
requesting the Mayor’s signature at the earliest convenience.
• For projects less than $50,000, the City Administrator can initiate the work associated
with a task order, with a request to City Council. The City Administrator will determine if
the item shall be placed on either the Consent or Formal Agenda requesting the Mayor’s
signature at the earliest convenience.
• For projects between $50,000 to $100,000, the Department Director, with the approval of
the City Administrator, will coordinate directly with one of the On-Call consultants who
are pre-qualified in a specific discipline to negotiate a scope and fee. The task order will
be presented to the City Council for approval before authorizing the consultant to
proceed.
• For projects between $100,000 to $300,000, a Request for Proposal will be sent to at
least three of the On-Call consultants who are pre-qualified in a specific discipline, or all
On-Call consultants if less than three are qualified for the specific Proposal. A selection
committee will review the proposals. Once a single consultant is selected, the
Department Director will negotiate a scope and fee. The task order will be presented to
the City Council for approval before authorizing the consultant to proceed.
• For projects above $300,000, a Request for Qualifications or Proposals, separate from
the On-Call process, will be released to the public. After review by a selection
committee, staff will negotiate a scope and fee. The professional services agreement
will be presented to City Council for approval.
Additional work not originally outlined in the Task Order shall be included in a Task Order or
Professional Services Agreement and shall follow the process listed above for On-Call Services.
C. Purchases of Goods, Services, and Professional Services Up To $50,000
9
1. Purchases less than $10,000. The purchase of supplies and services, including
professional services, from a single vendor, per occurrence, contract, or
engagement, having a total value of less than $10,000 shall be the responsibility
of the department Director. Competition is not required. For Professional
Services, Department Directors and City Officers are responsible for selection
and contract administration based on applicable and appropriate qualifications,
experience, referenced successes, and cost factors.
2. Purchases from $10,001 to $25,000. All requests for the purchase of goods
and services, including professional services, totaling $10,001 to $25,000 from a
single vendor, per occurrence, contract, or engagement, shall require approval
by the Finance Director.
Prior to submitting the purchase request, Department Directors or City officers
must furnish at least three (3) quotes from reputable providers, if feasible. The
RFP process may be used if beneficial to the selection of a vendor for the
purchase. The Finance Director or designee shall maintain supporting
documentation of the quotes. If the authorized City employee is unable to
obtain three (3) quotes, the reason shall be clearly stated in the request for
approval from the Director of Finance.
3. Purchases from $25,001 to $50,000. All requests for the purchase of goods
and services, including professional services, totaling $25,001 to $50,000 from a
single vendor, per occurrence, contract, or engagement, shall require approval
by the City Administrator.
Prior to submitting the purchase request, Department Directors or City Officers
must either recommend the use of the RFP process or state a reason or reasons
why the RFP process is not suitable for the requested purchase and utilize the
formal or informal bid process. The Finance Director or designee shall maintain
supporting documentation of the quotes. If the authorized City employee is
unable to obtain three (3) quotes, the reason shall be clearly stated in the
written request for approval from the City Administrator.
D. Purchases of Goods, Services, and Professional Services Greater Than
$50,000
All requests for the purchase of supplies and services, other than for professional
services, totaling more than $50,000 from a single vendor, per occurrence, contract, or
engagement, shall be approved by the Governing Body as part of the legislative
process.
The Request for Proposal (RFP) process shall be followed as outlined in Section 2.04. Separate
sealed bids may be requested through the RFP process as deemed necessary by the
department director issuing the RFP.
2.04
QUOTATIONS
Quotations are written or verbal statements of prices, terms of sale and description of goods or
services offered to the City by a prospective contractor. Quotations from multiple firms shall be

10
$50,000.00. All quotations obtained by user departments for such purchases from $10,000.00 to
$49,999.99 require competitive written quotations. Quotations from $10,000 to $24,999.99 may
be submitted in tabulated form.
A.
Informal Bids
Informal Bids are written documents issued by the Finance Department similar to formal bids
(see below), with the exceptions that neither public notice nor a stated period of time between
bids invitations and bid opening are required. Informal bids may be used to document
competition for procurements with an estimated cost of less than $50,000 or for other
procurement situations requiring expedited or unusual handling at the discretion of the City
Administrator.
B.
Formal Bids
Formal Bids are written documents issued by the Finance Department, inviting potential
contractors to submit sealed, written pricing for specific goods and services in conformance with
specifications, terms, conditions, and other requirements described in the bid invitation
documents.
Formal bids require public notice (legal publication), public bid opening at a time and place
designated in the bid document, and a minimum of ten (10) working days between publication of
the bid and bid opening. Formal bids shall be utilized to document procurements of goods and
contractual services with an estimated project cost of $50,000.00 or more.
C.
Request for Qualifications (RFQ
Department Directors and City Officers may gather information on the qualifications or services
offered by Vendors through a Request for Information (RFI) Process.
The intent of this Request for Qualifications is to solicit information to gain a better
understanding of the marketplace, vendors, solution functionality and pricing structures.
Responses to an RFQ may be used to obtain funding for a Request for Proposal or Bid process
to be issued on a later date.
A Sample formal for the RFQ is in Exhibit C.
D.
Requests for Proposals (RFP)
Any purchase of services obligating the City to an expenditure of more than $50,000, other than
professional services upon the direction of the Mayor or City Administrator and the City Attorney
shall be made under the Request for Proposals process. Request for proposals is a cumulative
process that incorporates quotations, both informal and formal bids, and request for proposals
as well as a request for information.
The department initiating the Request for Proposals is responsible for forwarding the final award
documentation to the City Clerk for record keeping. All submittals, except confidential or
proprietary information as defined by law, are public records and must be retained.
Notice to Bidders: A Notice to Bidders for the purchase of goods and services, including
professional services, totaling more than $50,000 shall be advertised in the official paper of the
City one (1) time.
11

through government contracting websites shall be used whenever possible. Notice may also be
issued to prospective bidders suggested by the department issuing the Notice.
A Notice to Bidders form shall be submitted to the City Clerk’s office in sufficient time to meet
the required publication deadline.
The Notice to Bidders shall be on a form approved by the City Attorney.
Addendum to RFP:
If it is necessary to change the scope of work or any other aspect of the RFP prior to the date of
submittal, an addendum shall be issued stating the changes. Scope of work changes must
allow adequate notice and mailing time. The addendum shall be issued to every vendor which
received a copy of the Request for Proposals. In certain cases, the proposal opening may be
postponed allowing adequate time for respondents to prepare their proposals based on scope of
work changes.
Bonding and insurance: Requirements shall be set at the discretion of the department and the
City Attorney in accordance with Chapter 4 of this Policy.
Submission of Bids: The City Clerk or the director of the department issuing the bid shall
open all sealed bids and read them aloud in the presence of at least one (1) witness. A bid
tabulation of all bids received will be made available for public inspection and retained by the
City Clerk. Bids must be received prior to the specified time as established in the request. Bids
received after the specified deadline must be returned to the non-responsive vendor unopened.
Evaluation of Proposals: Bids will be evaluated pursuant to the City’s Competitive Purchasing
Procedures. A copy of these procedures can be obtained upon request from the department
issuing the bid.
Award of Bid: The selection committee designated by the City Administrator shall review the
proposals and make a recommendation to Governing Body.
Negotiation: In a situation where a bid is not required in the Request for Proposals, negotiation
with the highest qualified vendor shall be undertaken to obtain a contract incorporating the
scope of Services, method of contracting, price and terms and conditions determined to be fair
and reasonable to the City. Department Directors and City Officers should consult with the City
Attorney prior to negotiation or utilize the City Attorney for contract negotiation. If negotiations
with the most qualified vendor are not successful, negotiations with the second most qualified
vendor shall then be undertaken and so on until a contract is successfully negotiated with a
qualified vendor.
Alternative Process: The Governing Body may develop any method of procuring the
construction, or reconstruction, of any public facility, that it deems to be in the best interests of
the City, to include:
•
The Governing Body may elect to have direct negotiations with a prospective provider
including negotiations with the lowest and best responsible bidder if all bids exceed the
estimate.
•
Selection of a provider from a request for qualifications.
12
•
A design/build process, as determined by the Governing Body; or
•
Any other integrated comprehensive project design and/or construction process.
State Sales Tax Requirements: When applicable, the City may furnish a sales tax exemption
certificate number as supplied by the Kansas Department of Revenue. The successful bidder
(contractor) shall be required to comply with K.S.A. § 79-3606, as amended.
2.05
SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT
A. Authority: Exemption from competitive procurement is permitted when a written
determination has been made by an officer or Department Head and approved by
the City Administrator that there is only one source practicably or reasonably
available to provide a supply or service, or professional services.
B. Sole Source Criteria: The following are the criteria used for determining eligibility
for sole source procurement:
1. The vendor is the original equipment or software provider and
required parts, equipment, or software are unavailable from another
vendor.
2. Incompatibility or non-conformity with City owned equipment,
materials, software, or expertise would require the expenditure of
additional funds.
3. The vendor provides a unique supply or service, and no similar supply
or service is available or suitable.
SECTION 3: AGREEMENTS
3.01
PRICE AGREEMENTS
A. Purpose: Price Agreements are agreements established with vendors to allow
individual purchases by the City throughout the year without repeating the
competitive bidding process each time a purchase is made. Price agreements take
advantage of volume discounting based on the annual estimated quantities
purchased. Price agreements also reduce paperwork, therefore expediting service
and reducing purchasing costs.
Price Agreements do not commit the City to purchase any supply or service from the
vendor. They are issued to advise the vendor of the supply and/or service the City
may require, establish terms and pricing where applicable, establish dollar limits,
either per order or time period, establish personnel authorized to make purchases
against these price agreements and outline the ordering, receiving and invoicing
procedure.
3.02
COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS
13
A. General: Cooperative procurement is a process by which two or more governmental
jurisdictions join together to purchase supplies or services from the same vendor.
This form of purchasing has the benefits of reducing administrative costs, eliminating
duplication of effort, lowering prices, sharing information, and taking advantage of
expertise and information that may be available in only one of the jurisdictions.
Examples of cooperative agreements can be as simple as two jurisdictions agreeing
to jointly fund a road improvement project and as sophisticated as the Mid-America
Regional Council’s Kansas City Regional Purchasing Cooperative.
B. Authority: Departments are authorized to participate in, sponsor, conduct or
administer a cooperative agreement with one or more other public or non-profit
entities as long as the source selection practices of the cooperative agreement
conform to the City’s source selection methods detailed in Section 2 of this policy.
Purchases through cooperative agreements must be approved for payment
consistent with approval authority provisions set forth under Section 1.01 C,
Purchasing Authority, of this policy.
3.03
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS
A. General: Other government agencies perform bids on supplies and services similar
to the City. Many vendors will extend the same terms and pricing to other
governments. This form of purchasing has the benefits of reducing administrative
costs, eliminating duplication of effort, lowering prices, sharing information, and
taking advantage of expertise and information that may be available in only one of
the jurisdictions.
B. Authority: Department directors and City officers are authorized to utilize other
government contracts, other local governments, State and Federal pricing as long as
the source selection practices of the agency are in conformance with the City’s
purchasing policies and source selection methods detailed in Section 2 of this policy.
C. Review and Authorization of Agreements: All contracts, including those based
upon underlying agreements based upon other governmental or intergovernmental
cooperative contracts must be reviewed and approved by the City Attorney prior to
their execution; provided that, emergency agreements may be adopted, if necessary,
based upon verbal description and general authorization by the City Attorney; further
provided that, notwithstanding any provision above, the City Council may adopt and
authorize the Mayor to execute a contract without the review and approval of the City
Attorney, Finance Department, and/or City Administrator – although legal review is
always recommended.
SECTION 4: BONDS AND CONTRACT CLAUSES
4.01 BID SECURITY
A. Performance and Payment Bonds
14
1. When a contract is awarded, the following bonds or security shall be delivered to
the City in all cases required by State statute, Municipal Code, or City ordinance,
and if the City Administrator deems appropriate on those contracts not required
by state statute and shall become binding on the parties upon execution of the
contract:
a. Performance Bond: A performance bond satisfactory to the City, executed by
a surety company authorized to do business in Kansas or otherwise secured
in a manner satisfactory to the City for the performance of the work provided

contract; and
b. Payment Bond: A payment bond to the State of Kansas satisfactory to the
City, executed by a surety company authorized to do business in Kansas or
otherwise secured in a manner satisfactory to the City, for the protection of all
persons supplying labor, materials, equipment or supplies to the contractor or
its subcontractors for the performance of the work provided for in the
contract. The bond shall be in an amount equal to 100% of the price
specified in the contract and shall otherwise comply with the requirements of
K.S.A. 60-1111.
Authority to Require Additional Bonds: Nothing in this section shall be construed to
limit the authority of the City to require other security in addition to the bonds
mentioned, or in circumstances other than specified in Subsection (1) of this
Section.
4.02
CONTRACT CLAUSES AND THEIR ADMINISTRATION
A. Modification of Required Clauses: The City Attorney may vary the contract
clauses for inclusion in any particular contract at the request of City officials.
B. Term of Ongoing Professional Services Contracts: The term of professional
services contracts of an ongoing nature shall be determined by the City
Administrator, Mayor, City Attorney, or Governing Body, depending upon the nature
and form of the contract.
SECTION 5: CHANGE ORDER LIMITS AND AUTHORIZATION
This change order process applies to contracts and purchase orders approved by the City.
5.01
CHANGE ORDER INCREASE AND APPROVAL
A. Change Order Approval by Governing Body: A change order increase must be
approved by the Governing Body if the change:

greater.
B. Change Order Authorization for City Administrator
1. The City Administrator or his/her designee is authorized to approve change
orders less than $50,000 or less than 10% above the original or amended base
contract, whichever is less.

schedule would be significantly negatively impacted by a delay in consideration
of the change order or when it is the best interest of the City; subject to subject to
ratification by the Governing Body at next regularly scheduled meeting of the
Governing Body.
C. Per Unit Change Orders: When a contract originally approved by the Governing
Body is based on unit cost (e.g., mill and overlay) a final change order must be
presented to the Governing Body at the end of the contract if there is an increase or
decrease in the base contract amount.
SECTION 6: EXEMPTIONS FROM POLICY
The City will exempt from the competitive procurement process such purchases and
expenditures of City funds that are not readily adaptable to the competitive procurement and
purchase order processes. These purchases are exempt from the provisions of the Purchasing
Policy due to express statutory or legislative provisions that govern acquisition of those
particular goods or services or due to reasons deemed appropriate by the Governing Body. All
exemptions from the City purchasing policy must be approved by the Governing Body, unless
otherwise exempt pursuant to these policies or by Kansas statute now or hereinafter enacted.
SECTION 7: EXCEPTIONS TO COMPETITION
The City may waive the competitive process and authorize an exception to competition
for certain situations and circumstances that do not lend themselves to the competitive process
or where competition may not be available.
All exceptions to competition must be specifically authorized and approved – by the City
Administrator if the procurement is less than $50,000.00, or by the City Council if procurement is
$50,000.00 or more.
SECTION 8: TAX CLEARANCE
16
The City will require a tax clearance letter from any bidder/respondent offered a contract

Local Government.
(1) A Tax Clearance Letter issued by a Local Government shall be valid
for one year from the date of issuance.

they are the top ranked respondent or lowest, responsive, responsible bidder and
dated not more than 60 days prior to any notice of intent to contract by the City.
Tax clearance letters shall be submitted to the Finance Director.
The City of Spring Hill reserves the right to waive the tax clearance requirement
in the event of an emergency procurement, as defined in Purchasing Policy
Section 1.04, Exceptions to Competition or other extenuating circumstances

services, as defined by the City Administrator.
SECTION 9: FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS AND STATE STATUTES
9.01

10.02 METHODS OF DISPOSITION
A. The following are the methods of disposition that may be used for surplus,

method when it is in the best interest of the City.
2. Auctions: The City may contract with an auctioning service or auction via on-line
internet service to sell items to the highest bidder.
3. Sealed Bids: The department may determine that items shall be sold at sealed
bid sale. Public Notice of the sale is made, and solicitations are issued to
prospective bidders.
4. Trade Associations and other local governments. Specialized equipment may be
posted to professional associations or other local governments and sold at the
highest price possible without requiring Governing Body approval. This should
only be utilized for equipment or property which cannot be sold to the general
public such as police vehicles.
5. Commercial Markets: The department may determine that items may be offered
for sale by consignment to established commercial markets. Candidates for this
method of sale include antiques, art, and specialized equipment.
6. Sale of Scrap: Many items that are no longer usable may have a residual value.
The department may arrange for the sale of scrap items.

is erratic, an item may be marked with a pre-established price and sold to the
public on a first-come basis.
8. Trade-in: The department may determine that it is advantageous to the City to
seek bids on replacement items with the Vendors allowing/offering trade
allowances. Award may be made in the manner that is most advantageous to
the City.
9. Cannibalization: Disassembling an item to use its components for repair or
maintenance of a similar item is authorized only if cannibalization is expected to
create greater value than disposal or trade-in of the item.

be approved by the Governing Body. Donation of items believed to have a value
of $10,000 or less shall be approved by the City Administrator.

disposed as trash. Care shall be taken to destroy or dispose of items regarding
environmental impact and cost.

AGENDA ITEM REVIEW SHEET
Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Spencer Low, City Attorney
Consent Item Description: Consider adoption of Ordinance No 2026-XX, An Ordinance
Amending Ordinance No. 2026-17 to Correct Clerical Errors.
Background: On June 25, 2026, the City approved Ordinance 2026-17, amending Chapter 17,
Article 3, Section 17, pertaining to the Unified Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations of
Spring Hill, Kansas.
At the June 25, 2026 meeting, the Governing Body discussed changes to the ordinance as
recommended by the Planning Commission following the Planning Commission’s public hearing,
and made an oral motion for the Ordinance to include certain changes as discussed and as contained
in the Staff Report. The Version of Ordinance No. 2026-17 that was enrolled, however, contained
two clerical errors. First, it identified the new Unified Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision
Regulations of Spring Hill, Kansas as Third Edition 2025, which should have read Unified Zoning
Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations of Spring Hill, Kansas, 2026, First Edition. Second, it
inadvertently omitted inclusion of manufacturing uses for M-1 and M-2 that were identified in the
Staff Report.
This ordinance corrects those two clerical errors, designating the current Unified Zoning
Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations of Spring Hill, Kansas as the “Unified Zoning Ordinance
and Subdivision Regulations of Spring Hill, Kansas, 2026, First Edition” and identifying
manufacturing and extraction uses in their proper respective sections under M-1 and M-2.
This Ordinance does not change what the City approved, it merely ensures that the Unified Zoning
Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations of Spring Hill, Kansas accurately reflect what the
Governing Body passed.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends the acceptance of the ordinance.
Alternatives:
• Return the ordinance to staff for additional consideration with direction to staff.
Legal Review: The Ordinance has been reviewed and approved by Spencer Low, City Attorney.
Attachments:
• Ordinance 2026-XX.
Funding Source: There is no direct budget impact associated with the ordinance.
Suggested Motion: Move to adopt of Ordinance No 2026-XX, An Ordinance Amending
Ordinance No. 2026-17 to Correct Clerical Errors.
ORDINANCE NO. ________

Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations of the City of Spring Hill, Kansas, Third Edition, 2025, is
hereby amended as follows:
SECTION 17.332 - PD PLANNED DISTRICT
A.
Purpose. The zoning of land to one of the Planned Districts shall be for the purpose of
encouraging and requiring orderly development on a quality level generally equal to that of the
equivalent standard zoning districts, but permitting deviations from the normal and established
development techniques. The use of planned zoning procedures is intended to encourage largescale development tracts, efficient development of small tract, innovative and imaginative site
planning, conservation of natural resources and minimizing the inefficient use of land or the use
of planned zoning procedures is to encourage unique and high-quality neighborhood,
commercial or mixed-use development through an integrated development plan that provides
flexibility to the standard zoning district regulations. The use of the PD District can enhance the
quality of development and amenities, improve the design of the public realm, increase
compatibility between adjacent uses and developments, and reduce negative impacts by using
techniques such as: large-scale developments; efficient use of land; innovative and imaginative
architectural approaches; design and site planning standards; conservation and preservation of
natural resources; urban amenities; and greater open space
Planned Zoning Districts and their equivalent districts are as follows, but are not limited to:
Planned District
RPAG Planned Agricultural
RPUR Planned Rural
RP-1 Planned Single-Family Residential
RP-2 Planned Two-Family Residential
RP-3 Planned Multifamily
RP-4 Planned Multifamily
MHP Planned Manufactured Housing
CP-O Planned Office Building

Statement of Objectives. The zoning of land in the City of Spring Hill to one of the Planned
Districts (RP-1 through RP-4 and CP-0 through CP-2) shall be for the purpose of encouraging
and requiring orderly development on a quality level generally equal to that of the equivalent
standard zoning districts, but permitting deviations from the normal and established development
techniques. The use of planned zoning procedures is intended to encourage large-scale
development tracts, efficient development of small tracts, innovative and imaginative site
planning, conservation of natural resources and minimizing the inefficient use of land. Planned
Districts are expected to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan recommendations, including
the Planning Principles and Design Guidelines. The following are specific objectives of this
section. (Ord. 2006-48)
1.
A proposal to rezone land to a planned district shall be subject to the same criteria relative to
compliance with master plans, land use policies, neighborhood compatibility, adequacy of
streets and utilities and other elements as are normal in rezoning deliberations.
2.
The submittal by the developer and the approval by the City of the approved plan in
concept, intensity of use, aesthetic levels and quantities and qualities of open space.
3.
Deviations in yard requirements, setbacks and relationship between buildings as set out in
the Standards of Development of the underlying district may be approved if it is deemed that
other amenities or conditions will be gained to the extent that an equal or higher quality of
development is produced. (Ord. 2006-48)
4.
Residential areas will be planned and developed in a manner that will produce more useable
open space, better recreational opportunities, safer and more attractive neighborhoods than
under standard zoning and development techniques.
5.
Commercial areas will be planned and developed so as to result in attractive, viable and safe
centers and clusters, as opposed to strip patterns along thoroughfares. Control of vehicular
access, architectural quality, landscaping and signs will be exercised to soften the impact on
nearby residential neighborhoods, and to assure minimum adverse effects on the street
system and other services of the community.
6.
The developer will be given latitude in using innovative techniques in the development of
land not feasible under application of standard zoning requirements.
7.
Planned zoning shall not be used as a refuge from the requirements of the equivalent district
as to intensity of land use, amount of open space to other established development criteria.
Nor will any use be permitted in the planned district that is not clearly permitted in the
equivalent district. Permitted land uses may be modified from those listed in a base zoning
district in a planned district provided a corresponding Protected Overlay, P-O district, is
proposed as part of the rezoning to a planned district.
8.
Any building or portion thereof may be owned in condominium under K.S.A. 58-3101.
9.
For purposes of this title, the term "shopping center", "office park", or other grouping of
buildings shall mean developments that were planned as an integral unit or cluster on
property under unified control or ownership at the time the zoning was approved by the
City. The size and/or subdivision of other partitions of the site after zoning approval does
not exempt the project or portions thereof from complying with development standards,
architectural quality, sign concepts and other conditions that were committed at the time of
rezoning. (Ord. 2006-48)
10. Open space in planned developments shall contribute to the use and enjoyment of the
development’s residents or users. Open space shall be provided in useful, quality spaces
integrated purposefully into the overall development design. Residual areas left over after
buildings and parking areas are sited are not considered acceptable useful open space. (Ord.
2006-48)
C.
Modification of underlying district regulations. The Planning Commission may recommend and
the City Council may approve, pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section, a preliminary
development plan that modifies one or more of the property development standards found in the
equivalent zoning district, including, but not limited to, density and minimum lot size
requirements, floor area ratios, building setback requirements, design standards, required
minimum public improvements, maximum structure heights, parking, landscaping, buffering and
tree protection requirements. Uses permitted as of right, uses permitted with conditions, and
special uses, and prohibited uses within each district cannot be modified pursuant to this
subsection unless the uses are modified by request for a rezoning to a Planned District that is
accompanied by request for a Protective Overlay. In this case, land uses may be modified to add
or remove uses permitted as of right, uses permitted with conditions, special uses, and/or
prohibited uses.
No separate vote on proposed modifications is required by this subsection. It is the intent of this
subsection that the Planning Commission and City Council evaluate the proposed preliminary
development plan to determine if, as a whole, it is consistent with the approval criteria set forth
herein and the purposes of Section 17.334.B. Ample evidence shall be present that said
modifications will not adversely affect neighboring property, nor will it constitute the mere
granting of a privilege. (Ord. 2006-48)
D.
Local Administrative Agency. The Planning Commission, together with the City staff, will
administer the Planned Zoning Procedure and present a recommendation to the City Council for
final zoning action. Also see Section 17.364 for zoning procedure.
E.
Standards of Development.
1.
The property development standards shall be as set out in the equivalent district. However,
modifications to the underlying property development standards may be granted in
accordance with the property development standards for Planned Zoning Districts provided
Section 17.338.A.2. Reduction of lot area, setbacks, or other open space shall be
compensated by additional open space in other appropriate portions of the project. In all
cases, such modifications shall be in keeping with good land planning principles, and must
be specifically set out in the minutes of the Planning Commission, as well as on plans and
other exhibits in the record. (Ord. 2006-48)
2.
The intensity of land use, the bulk of buildings, the concentration of population, the amount
of open space, light and air shall be generally equal to that required in the equivalent district.
3.
The permitted uses shall be the same as those permitted in the equivalent district, unless
specifically identified at the time of the request of a planned district through a Protected
Overlay. Limitations may be placed on the occupancy of certain premises or those uses
allowed in the equivalent district may be restricted or prohibited, if such limitations are
deemed essential to the health, safety or general welfare of the community. (Ord. 2006-48)
4.
The Planning Commission may require assurance of the financial and administrative
organization and ability of any agency created by a developer for the purpose of maintaining
common open space and facilities or amenities of a nonpublic nature.
5. The parking ratio for grouped commercial projects shall as a minimum follow the
underlying district requirements, unless modifications are granted through a planned district.
Reduction of parking, setbacks or other open space shall be compensated by additional open
space in other appropriate portions of the project. In all cases, such deviation shall be in
keeping with good land planning principles, and must be specifically set out in the minutes
of the Planning Commission, as well as on plans and other exhibits in the record.
The design of all planned projects, whether residential or commercial shall be such that
access and circulation by fire fighting equipment is assured and may not be retarded by steep
grades, heavy landscaping or building space. (Ord. 2006-48)
6.
For residential developments granted reductions to the minimum lot area per dwelling unit, a
minimum fifteen (15) percent of the net land area shall be declared as common open space.
A minimum of fifty (50) percent of the required common open space area in residential
developments shall be developed as active open space for use by all persons who reside in
the subdivision. Such open space shall be located in highly accessible locations surrounded
predominately by public streets rather than located behind development or on remnant tracts
of land. Variations to these minimum open space standards may be granted with approval of
a preliminary development plan provided the Planning Commission and City Council
determine the development achieves the objectives of planned zoning stated in Section
17.332.B, and the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan including the Planning
Principles and Design Guidelines. (Ord. 2006-48)
7.
Modifications to property development standards may be granted with approval of a PD
planned district in accordance with Section 17.332Nonresidential uses which are proposed
for the benefit of or as an amenity to a particular development and not for use by the general
public should be located within the interior of the development where most accessible to a
majority of residents within the development. (Ord. 2006-48)
8.
Residential and commercial zoned developments are expected to use higher-quality durable
building materials and architectural-design features that provide an increase in visual interest
over conventional zoned developments. Such developments are expected to comply with
the Planning Principles and Design Guidelines recommendations in the Comprehensive
Plan, including recommended building materials and building design. Single-family
residential uses are expected to incorporate building materials consistent with those
recommended for multifamily residential developments as well as stucco and fiber-cement
board, particularly on sides of the structures visible to the public, except that the sides and
rear of such single-family structures may be permitted other exterior finishes. (Ord. 200648)
9.
Modifications to property development standards may be granted with approval of a PD
planned district in accordance with Section 17.332Residential zoned developments granted
lot area, lot width, or building setback reductions shall comply with the recommendations of
the Comprehensive Plan and associated Planning Principles and Design Guidelines to limit
the width of garages oriented toward the street in relation to the overall width of the
residential structure, and to limit garage projections in front of habitable living space. The
number of garages oriented toward a street in a multifamily structure shall be limited to
minimize the number of visible garages and the amount of pavement in the front yard
setback. Additional architectural and site design requirements may be established at the
time of preliminary or final development plan approval. (Ord. 2006-48)
SECTION EIGHT: Chapter XVII, Article 3, Section 17.334 of the Unified Zoning
Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations of the City of Spring Hill, Kansas, Third Edition, 2025, is
hereby amended as follows:
SECTION 17.334 - P-O PROTECTIVE OVERLAY DISTRICT
A.
B.
C.
Purpose. The P-O district may be applied in combination with any base-zoning district. By
tailoring use or property development standards to individual projects or specific properties, the
P-O district is intended to:
1.
ensure compatibility among incompatible or potentially incompatible land uses;
2.
ease the transition from one zoning district to another;
3.
address sites or land uses with special requirements; and
4.
guide development in unusual situations or unique circumstances.
Use and Property Development Standards. The P-O district can be used to modify and restrict
the use and property development standards of an underlying base zoning district. All
requirements of a P-O district are in addition to and supplement all other applicable standards
and requirements of this Regulation. Restrictions and conditions imposed by a P-O district shall
be limited to the following. Modifications contained within may include, but are not limited to:
1.
prohibiting modifying, adding, or restricting otherwise permitted or conditional uses and
accessory uses; or making an otherwise permitted use a conditional use;
2.
decreasing modifying the number or average density of dwelling units that may be
constructed on the site;
3.
increasing modifying minimum lot size or lot width;
4.
increasing modifying minimum setback requirements;
5.
restrictions on modifications to access to abutting properties and nearby roads, including
specific design features; and
6.
any other specific development standards required or authorized by this Regulation.
Method of Adoption. Restrictions imposed through a P-O district are considered part of this
zoning code text and accompanying map. All property included in a P-O district shall be
identified on the Zoning Map. The ordinance or resolution modifications imposed pursuant to
Section 17.334.B. The restrictions imposed shall be considered part of the text of this Code, and
a violation of the restrictions shall be a violation of this Code. The restrictions modifications
shall continue in full force and effect until modified by the Governing Body in accordance with
the amendment procedures of this Code. (2007-24 8/07)
D.
Effect of P-O Designation. When the P-O zoning designation is applied in combination with a
base zoning district it shall always be considered to result in a more restrictive designation than if
the base district did not have the P-O classification. In the event that the P-O designation was not
originally requested as part of the rezoning application, but instead is added during the staff
review or public hearing process, renotification and re-advertisement of the requested zoning
change shall not be required.

SECTION FOURTEEN: Chapter XVII, Article 3, Section 17.360 of the Unified Zoning Ordinance
and Subdivision Regulations of the City of Spring Hill, Kansas, Third Edition, 2025, is hereby
amended as follows:
SECTION 17.360 - SCREENING AND FENCING
A.
Purpose and Intent. It is the purpose and intent of this Section to improve the well being of
the community by the control of fencing, and the requiring of proper screening to enhance
visual surroundings by screening out unsightly views and conditions, to increase the quality
of living by upgrading conditions within the City of Spring Hill, to protect the residential
community by affording a level of privacy and at the same time establishing better controls
to the business and commercial areas. It is desirable to encourage combinations of elements
of appropriate fencing, land berm and planting barriers and to soften hard transition areas. It
is equally desirable to maintain a high degree of traffic safety by proper location of
screening and fencing so that safety will remain paramount. All screening and fencing shall
be built using new building materials that are residential in character and must be approved
by the Zoning Administrator.
In addition, the Community Development Recommendations of the Spring Hill
Comprehensive Plan will supplement these regulations. The purpose of the Comprehensive
Plan Recommendations is to provide quality and design criteria relating to all development
within the City.
B.
Where Screening and Fencing is Required. Screening and fencing shall be required at the
following locations:
1. All multifamily residential projects, and all commercial, office, industrial, or conditional
use projects, shall include on the site plan, a detailed drawing of enclosure and screening
method to be used in connection with trash bins on the property. No trash bin shall be
visible from off the property, and a permanent masonry or frame enclosure shall be
provided and maintained for each bin.
2. In any district where a retaining wall is needed because of abrupt changes in the grade,
planting and fencing shall form a protective barrier to prevent loss or injury.
3. Around a swimming pool, as defined in Appendix G of the International Residential
Code including portable seasonal pools whether private or public, shall be a protective
fenced enclosure in accordance with Section 4-202.R102.5 of the Code of the City of
Spring Hill. Swimming pools, hot tubs and spas in existence as of the 30th day of April,
2008 and protected with a four-foot fence and locking gate may continue their current
level of pool protection provided the fence and gate are in good repair. Any substantial
repair, maintenance or replacement of the fence or gate must be in compliance with
Section 4-202.R102.5 of the Code of the City of Spring Hill. (Ord. 2008-13)
4. Around and about hazardous areas, holes, new construction, etc. whether temporary or
permanently necessary to protect against intrusion, for control or to give a degree of
privacy or whatever reason, to protect the public from a hazardous situation.
5. In Districts C-O through M-12 all buildings shall provide screening of roof clutter,
including mechanical equipment, fans, vents, flues, antenna, and satellite dishes.
6. Where it is deemed necessary as a solution to a problem by either the Planning
Commission or Governing Body.
(Ord. 2002-07; 2006-48; 2007-24; 2009-21)
C.
Where Screening and Fencing is Prohibited.
1.
This zoning ordinance prohibits the erection of a continuous fence more than two feet
high in the front yard or side yard abutting a street except in the following
circumstances:
(a) in AG and R-R districts: a see-through fence with a height of four feet or less is
allowed;
(b) in MP, M-1, and M-12 districts: a security fence is allowed;
(c) in R-1 and R-2 districts: a fence of six feet or less may be erected in the side and/or
rear yard no closer to the abutting side street than three feet from the property line,
provided that such fence shall not be erected in the sight vision triangle.
2.
In Districts R-R through MH, no fence shall exceed a height of six feet.
3.
No fence shall be permitted within the sight triangle on any corner lot. See Section
17.348.
4.
Nothing herein shall discourage or prohibit the landscaping, screening, and erecting of
standalone decorative fences of three feet or less in the front yard provided that the
Zoning Administrator determines that said fencing is not hazardous to traffic or public
safety.
5.
Upon proper application to the Community Development Department, the zoning
administrator may approve fencing in the side yard of a corner lot to screen outdoor
mechanical equipment associated with the structure, walkout doors to the back of the
side building line, or other unusual cases as the zoning administrator or building
inspector deems appropriate.
6.
To provide for continuity when the side or rear yard of one residential property abuts
the front yard of another residential property on a corner lot, the fence cannot protrude
beyond the front building line of the adjacent lot except the Chief Building Inspector
may approve the placement of a fence on a corner lot closer to the street than the front
building line of the adjacent lot if the following conditions are met:
a. The fence shall not be erected closer to the street than the side street setback line of
the corner lot, and
b. No blind corners are created by the fence.
7.
A model home complex operated in conjunction with a residential sales office may
include a decorative fence in the front yard enclosing or defining the extent of the
complex. To qualify as a decorative fence, the surface of the fence must be at least 50
percent open, the fence cannot be constructed of chain link or other wire materials and
cannot exceed 4 feet in height. The front yard fence shall be removed upon the
termination or permanent closure of the sales office.
8.
If a fence is requested that would otherwise violate this section, the property owner or
applicant may apply for an exception to this section to the Planning Commission. The
Planning Commission decision may be appealed to the Governing Body for
consideration. The Commission shall consider the following in determining if an
exception should be allowed:
a. The fence or wall will not adversely affect the general welfare of the immediate
neighborhood in which the fence or wall is to be erected, taking into consideration
factors including, but not limited to, the value of the property and the safety of
residences in said neighborhood;
b. The appearance, location, and purpose of the proposed fence or wall;
c. The effect on adjoining properties;
d. The size of the area to be enclosed; and
e. The desirability of open views with regard to beauty, value and safety of the
neighborhood, including sight triangles.
(Ord. 2009-21; Ord 2016-04; 2024-04)
D.
Buffer Screens; where required.
1.
Buffer impact screens shall be provided between developments of differing land uses
adjoining one another and shall comply with Section 17.360.G, except as follows:
a. Buffer impact screen requirements may be modified through increased or decreased
requirements, or may be waived entirely by the Planning Commission and City
Council with approval of a site plan , or a preliminary and final development plan in
planned districts, upon finding that the development is designed in a manner to
effectively integrate land uses in a manner in which buffer/screen requirements may
be modified or eliminated while achieving the recommendations of the
Comprehensive Plan and the Planning Principles and Design Guidelines.
b. Residential developments zoned AG through MH shall not be required to provide a
buffer screen adjacent to nonresidential properties zoned C-O through M-12 in
accordance with Section 17.360.H unless such nonresidential properties are built
prior to the development of the residential zoned property and a buffer screen was
not provided by the nonresidential zoned property at the time of development.
2.
If a single-family subdivision is approved or built adjacent to a previously approved or
built, but separate single-family subdivision, and the difference in the average minimum
lot size between the two subdivisions is 120 percent or more, the subsequently
approved or built subdivision shall contain a buffer impact screen along the periphery
adjacent to the previously approved or built subdivision. A medium impact screen in
accordance with Section 17.360.G shall be provided unless such buffer impact screen
requirements are modified through increased or decreased requirements, or be waived
entirely by the Planning Commission and City Council with approval of a site plan.
Such buffer screen requirements shall not reduce or eliminate required street
connections between developments as required by Section 17.376 of the City of Spring
Hill Subdivision Regulations.
(Ord. 2006-48)
E.
Buffer/Screen Design Standards.
1.
General. Buffer areas shall contain no driveways, parking areas, patios, storm water
detention facilities, or any other structures or accessory uses except for a fence, wall, or
earthen berm constructed to provide the visual screening required to meet the standards
of this Section. Underground utilities may be permitted to cross a buffer if the screening
standards of this Section will be subsequently achieved. Required vehicular access
through a buffer may be allowed as a condition of preliminary development plan
approval.
2.
Natural Buffers. Natural buffers may contain deciduous or perennial vegetation but
shall contain evergreen shrubs and trees suitable to local growing conditions that will
provide an opaque visual screen during all seasons of the year.
a. A planting screen shall consist of compact evergreen plants or other suitable plants.
They shall be of a kind, or used in such a manner, so as to provide an effective
screen at least 6 feet in height within 2 growing seasons after initial installation. A
planting screen intended for parking lot screenings shall have a minimum height of 3
feet within 2 growing seasons.
3.
Structural Buffers. Structural buffers shall meet the following criteria:
a. Structural buffers shall be vegetated throughout the minimum area required for the
buffer around any fences or walls and upon any earthen berms, which may include
grass, ground covers, shrubs, and trees.
b. All earthen berms shall have a maximum side slope of three (3) horizontal to one (1)
vertical (3:1). Earthen berms shall not be constructed within the drip line of any
existing trees that will remain on the property.
c. Trees shall be located or planted within any structural buffer at a density of no less
than one (1) tree for each thirty (30) feet of buffer length or portion thereof. New
trees shall have a caliper of no less than 2 ½ inches upon planting and may be
clustered for decorative effect, following professional landscaping standards for
spacing, location, and design.
d. Fences and freestanding walls shall present a finished and decorative appearance to
the abutting property. Where a fence or wall is set back from the property line,
shrubs, ground covers, or other vegetation shall be provided between the fence or
wall and the property line so as to provide a decorative effect, following professional
landscaping standards for spacing, location and design.
(Ord. 2006-48)
F.
Minimum Buffer/Screen Requirements. A buffer/screen required by this Section shall meet
the following criteria:
1.
Width of Buffer.
a. Side Lot Line. Buffers required along any side lot line shall be no less than 20 feet or
as approved by the Planning Commission and City Council.
b. Rear Lot Line. Buffers required along any rear lot line shall be no less than 20 feet
or as approved by the Planning Commission and City Council.
2.
Minimum Required Screening. Minimum required screening shall conform to Section
17.360.H depending on the impact identified. Structural buffers (high impact screening)
shall meet the height required when installed. Planted materials (trees and shrubs) shall
meet the expected opacity within 2 growing seasons.
3.
Maintenance. Every buffer required by this Section shall be maintained by the owner
of the property where the buffer is located, in order to provide the visual screen at the
opacity identified, on a year-round basis. Should the buffer not be installed,
maintained, and replaced as needed to comply with the approved plan, the owner and
his agent or agents shall be considered in violation of the terms of the Building or
Occupancy Permit. The Building Inspector or his designee is empowered to enforce
the terms of this Code.
4.
Buffer Modifications.
a. If a structural buffer with landscaping is provided that creates an opaque screen to a
height of no less than 8 feet instead of 6 feet, the buffer may be reduced to a width of
no less than 10 feet.
b. The Planning Commission and City Council may reduce the extent of a buffer or
waive the buffer requirement to a temporarily appropriate level of screening if the
Comprehensive Plan anticipates future development on the adjoining property in a
land use category such that a buffer would not be required by this Section once the
adjoining property is rezoned or developed.
(Ord. 2006-48)
G.
Required Typical Impact Screens. The following impact screens shall be required between
any district as identified in the Table of Buffer / Screen Impact in which the perspective
development is located and adjacent to or across from, unless modifications are granted in
accordance with Sections 17.360.D.1.a or 17.360.F.4.
1.
High Impact Screening. A 100 percent opaque screen between land uses, which are
dissimilar in character. When the proposed plan is considered to have a high impact on
surrounding properties or the adjacent property is considered to have an adverse impact,
both the following shall be installed within the buffer yard: (1) a six foot high masonry
wall or opaque fence, (2) and low impact screening shall be planted on both sides of the
wall or fence.
2.
Medium Impact Screening. A 70 percent semi-opaque screen between land uses, which
are dissimilar in character. Semi-opaque screening should partially block views from
adjoining land uses and create separation between the adjoining land uses. For medium

Staff Contact: Mike Mallon, Interim City Administrator
Formal Item Description: Consideration of Ordinance No. 2026-XX amending Chapter VI,
Section 6-104(b), Fire Protection, of the Spring Hill Municipal Code related to Display Fireworks
(1.3G).
Background: The City Code currently includes regulations governing the discharge of display
(1.3G) fireworks within Chapter VI, Section 6-104(b), Fire Protection. The Governing Body has
identified a need to amend these regulations to allow for an alternative approval process when
display fireworks are conducted by governmental entities or political subdivisions.
The proposed ordinance amends Chapter VI, Section 6-104(b), Fire Protection, to allow the City
of Spring Hill and other governmental entities or political subdivisions of the State of Kansas to
obtain administrative approval for display fireworks (1.3G), in lieu of the standard permitting
process. Under the amendment, such entities will be required to submit an application and site plan
to the Community Development Department for review.
The Community Development Department will coordinate review of the request with the Planning
Director, Public Works Department, and the appropriate Fire District, and will consider any
comments or recommendations prior to approval. All display fireworks conducted under this
provision must comply with applicable state and federal laws and be coordinated with the
appropriate Fire District.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of Ordinance No. 2026-XX amending
Chapter VI, Section 6-104(b), Fire Protection, related to display fireworks (1.3G), as presented.
Alternatives:
• Approve, deny, table for further discussion
Legal Review: The ordinance has been reviewed and approved by Spencer Low, City Attorney.
Attachments:
• Draft Ordinance
Funding Source: N/A
Budget Allocated: N/A
Finance Director Approval: N/A
Suggested Motion: Move to approve ordinance amending Chapter VI Section 6-104(b), Fire
Protection, to allow administrative review and approval of display fireworks (1.3G) for
governmental entities and political subdivisions.

AGENDA ITEM REVIEW SHEET
Meeting Date: August 13, 2026
Staff Contact: Cody Fisher, Building Official
Formal Item Description: Consideration of an Ordinance adopting Section 4-202.R323, Storm
Protection.
Background: The City is preparing to adopt the 2018 International Residential Code with local
amendments. Proposed Section 4-202.R323 would require new one- and two-family dwellings and
townhouses to provide either an ICC/NSSA-500 storm-protection area or a qualifying basement.
Existing buildings and work not creating a new dwelling unit would be exempt. Regional practices
are mixed: some nearby jurisdictions require storm protection, while others do not, and compliance
methods vary. At the July 16, 2026 stakeholder meeting, builders and Kansas City Home Builders
Association representatives opposed the requirement based on affordability and buyer choice and
verbally estimated a dedicated shelter could add $8,000 to $12,000 to a new home.
Staff Recommendation: Staff presents the proposed ordinance for the Governing Body’s
consideration and direction. The draft reflects the Governing Body’s interest in establishing
regulations related to storm protection within the City Code. Staff recommends approval of the
ordinance as presented, or with any modifications the Governing Body deems appropriate.
Alternatives:
• Approve, Deny or table for further research
Legal Review: City Attorney, Spencer Low reviewed and approved the Ordinance.

STAKEHOLDER MEETING SUMMARY
Proposed 2018 IRC Amendments - Residential Storm Protection
Meeting Date:
July 16, 2026
Meeting Time:
9:30 a.m.
Purpose
City staff met with residential builders and representatives of the Kansas City Home Builders Association to
review the proposed adoption of the 2018 International Residential Code and provide an opportunity for
questions and comments on the proposed local amendments. Although the full amendment package was
discussed, most of the meeting focused on whether Spring Hill should require storm protection in new
residential construction.
Attendees
Builder and industry representatives
• Russ Flinn - Ashler Homes
• Travis Ruf - Ashler Homes
• Shawn Woods - Ashler Homes
• Kyle Jones - Calara Group
• George Schluter - Kansas City Home Builders Association
• Brian Wasser - D.R. Horton
• Will Rider - Kansas City Home Builders Association
• Alex Schoofs - Kansas City Home Builders Association
• Jordynn Webster - Kansas City Home Builders Association
City of Spring Hill representatives
• Cody Fisher - Building Official
• Mike Mallon - Community Development Director
• Amy Long - Project Coordinator
Discussion Summary
Staff explained that Spring Hill currently operates under the 2006 International Residential Code and is
preparing to adopt the 2018 edition with local amendments.
As part of that process, the City is considering language that would require new one- and two-family
dwellings and townhouses to provide either an ICC/NSSA-500 storm-protection area or a qualifying
basement. Existing buildings and work that does not create a new dwelling unit would be exempt. The
Governing Body will determine whether this provision is included in the final amendment package.
Builder and industry representatives raised concerns about construction costs, housing affordability, and
buyer choice. Representatives stated that storm protection should remain optional and that some
purchasers may not want or place value on the feature.
Builder representatives verbally estimated that a dedicated storm shelter could add approximately $8,000 to
$12,000 to the cost of a new home. One representative separately estimated that the overall transition from
the 2006 IRC to the 2018 IRC could add approximately $15,000, excluding storm protection. These figures
were not supported by written bids or independently verified cost studies.
Stakeholders also questioned why the language under consideration would apply to one- and two-family
dwellings and townhouses but not to apartment buildings. This issue will be addressed in the staff materials
presented to the Governing Body.
Participants discussed requirements in surrounding jurisdictions and noted that regional practices differ. A
verified jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction comparison will be included with the Council materials.
Implementation Considerations
The group discussed providing a reasonable transition period following adoption because builders may have
permit applications and house plans already in development under the current code. If the storm-protection
requirement is included, the effective date and treatment of projects already in process will need to be
clearly established.
Council Consideration
On August 13, 2026, the Governing Body will consider the stakeholder comments, verbal cost estimates,
proposed language, and regional comparison before deciding whether Section 4-202.R323 should be
included in the 2018 IRC adoption ordinance.
CITY OF SPRING HILL, KANSAS

The area shall:
1. Be directly accessible from within the dwelling unit or townhouse served;

suitable for temporary occupant refuge during severe weather.
The qualifying basement refuge area shall:
1. Be accessible from within the dwelling unit or townhouse served;
2. Have a concrete floor or other approved walking surface;

Council policy question: Should proposed Section 4-202.R323 be included in the City's 2018 International
Residential Code adoption ordinance?

REGIONAL COMPARISON OF RESIDENTIAL STORM-PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS
Spring Hill and Selected Kansas City Metropolitan-Area Jurisdictions
Overall finding: Residential storm-protection requirements exist in several nearby jurisdictions, but they are not a uniform regional standard. The scope, compliance methods,
exceptions, and opt-out provisions vary substantially.
Scope and method. This comparison focuses on requirements applicable to new one- and two-family dwellings and townhouses. Published municipal codes, adopted-code pages,
and local amendments available as of July 30, 2026, were reviewed. “No comparable local mandate identified” means that no local provision requiring storm protection in every new
IRC-regulated dwelling was found in the published materials reviewed; it does not rule out project-specific conditions or unpublished administrative interpretations.

Council Policy Context
• Mandatory approaches vary. Nearby provisions range from broad requirements to requirements limited by building type, development approval, basement configuration, or an
owner opt-out.
• A basement is commonly recognized. Several jurisdictions either allow a qualifying basement as the compliance method or exempt basement homes from a separate shelter.
• The requirement is not region-wide. Most jurisdictions reviewed do not impose a comparable local requirement on every new IRC-regulated dwelling.
• Spring Hill’s proposal is a policy choice. The proposed amendment would place Spring Hill among the jurisdictions with an affirmative requirement while allowing a qualifying
basement instead of requiring every home to contain a dedicated ICC/NSSA-500 shelter.
