# City Council Meeting (10/6/2026) | LEE'S SUMMIT, MO

The Lee’s Summit City Council regular meeting on October 6, 2026, considered two economic-development financing requests. The council approved Bill 26-186, establishing a community improvement district for a proposed 100,000-square-foot Dillons grocery store and related retail development near Northwest Main Street and Northeast Douglas Road. The district may impose a 1% sales and use tax to reimburse up to approximately $6.78 million in eligible costs, including site work and public improvements; the overall project investment was described as nearly $49 million. The bill passed 8–1. The council also considered Project Kings, a Chapter 100 industrial development plan for Graham Packaging: the company described an expansion into 215,000 square feet, 82 planned jobs, approximately $23 million in new equipment and $10.7 million in relocated equipment, and requested 75% personal-property-tax abatement. Bill 26-187 would authorize taxable industrial development revenue bonds of up to $33,775,000. The transcript does not capture a final vote on that bill.
