Yes I know it is not in Raytown, but many Raytown dog owners may like to attend. Kansas City Star editorial page author’s commentary in Thursday May 27th 2010 edition is worth reading.
You can find it in the editorial section of the Star or read it in Abouhalkah’s blog post online at the following link.

The owner of Ida’s Custom Veils (link) lives in Raytown and has a proposal to create a wedding mall in downtown Raytown on the empty site of the old 1st Baptist Church. The proposal is exciting, detailed and potentially very good for Raytown. It is important enough to devote the time to put the presentation of all 40 minutes of it online.
You can also get a more detailed look at the proposal by checking out the packet prepared for the Aldermen. This is the same packet that has the overlay information in it, it a 4.5 meg pdf file. Just click here
Part 1 is the presentation of the proposal. Part 2 is the last part of the presentation and comments by the Alderman Part 3 is Ida telling her story and it is very interesting part 4 is more Alderman comments and questions for the developer Senior Planner John Benson does a presentation on the developments on the Rock Island corridor for use by the KatyTrail.
Last Tuesdays Board of Aldermen meeting was not typical. Meaning it was not boring! Hardware problems have delayed posting videos of the meeting, but that has been resolved and they will be coming soon. Look for information on the Katy Trail coming to Raytown, and an exciting plan to develop downtown Raytown and a detailed report on the Street Overlay Program.
There are a lot of details to these 3 items that are easier to see on the City of Raytown website. It took me a while to find them though, so here is the link http://www.raytown.mo.us/vertical/Sites/%7B418C71C3-E397-4C87-B464-C498EC8900F9%7D/uploads/%7B05FD8986-F65C-4797-B48C-AF6F46A4CCF6%7D.PDF. Due to copyright respect I am not cutting and pasting from this document it will take a little time to find the items in this 4 meg plus packet. The only way to really understand what the plan is for street repair and overlays is to look at the information in this packet. The other two topics lend themselves to understanding by the video presentation and they will be posted here. News Release
