The Mission Beverly, a Milhaus mixed-use project, is a proposed multi-family and retail redevelopment located at Martway and Beverly, one block south of Johnson Drive and Mission’s downtown commercial corridor, and parallel to the Rock Creek Trail.  The redevelopment of seven properties – three properties on the south side of Martway, and four properties on the north side of Martway.

The development proposal consists of two buildings comprised of 262 units. The building on the north side is a four-story residential building over a parking garage, and includes approximately 1,500 square feet of retail at the corner of Martway and Beverly. This building also includes a courtyard with recreation amenities, including a pool, lounge areas, 24-hour fitness, and dog wash station.

The structure on the south side of Martway is a three-story walk-up with surface parking. The parking garage (north building) contains 264 stalls with electric vehicle charging, surface parking (south building) has 82 stalls, and seven stalls are located on-street to serve the retail use.

Sustainability measures include the following:

• EV chargers
• Proximity to public transit
• Proximity to active transportation (trail)
• Proximity to downtown commercial/retail/park
• Energy Star appliances
• High R-value insulation and window
• Energy conserving lighting
• Water-control irrigation and native vegetation

Materials are available at City Hall or by request via email to Mission’s City Planner.

The Rock Creek Stormwater Improvements Project is the City of Mission’s designated 2026 SMP project, supported and approved for funding by Johnson County. The program provides reimbursement of up to 50% of eligible construction and inspection costs.  

The Rock Creek Channel corridor between Woodson Street and Maple Street is a critical component of Mission’s stormwater infrastructure. This project is designed to reduce flood risk, stabilize and reinforce aging channel walls, and replace two bridges currently rated among the lowest in the City’s inventory through KDOT inspections 

Project improvements include:  

• Widening and lowering the creek channel to increase stormwater capacity  

• Stormwater system enhancements 

• Replacement of two bridges 

• New trail construction and realignment of a shared-use trail  

• Trail lighting improvements 

• Upgrades to sanitary sewer and water infrastructure 

The Nelson Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF), also referred to as the Nelson Complex, was constructed in phases, beginning in the 1940s, to address the needs of the growing community.

The Nelson WWTF is located in the northeastern corner of the City of Mission with Roeland Park to the east and Wyandotte County to the north. The Nelson WWTF serves two main tributary basins in northeast Johnson County – containing all or part of the cities of Fairway, Merriam, Mission, Overland Park, Prairie Village, Roeland Park, and Shawnee.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) are requiring stricter discharge limits for constituents such as ammonia, nitrogen, and phosphorus. The treatment technology currently in place at the Nelson WWTF is not capable of meeting these stricter future water quality standards.

The collection system was also sized and constructed with materials and technologies that are now outdated. As a result, it can experience issues during wet weather events. In addition, the system contains four satellite peak excess flow treatment facilities (PEFTFs), which discharge directly to adjacent waterways during significant wet weather events after primary treatment and disinfection.

In 2018, Johnson County Wastewater (JCW) commissioned engineering and environmental services company HDR, in association with CH2M and WCS, to determine the optimum solution to these issues and develop a long-term capital improvement plan for the Nelson service area. The plan recommended a new Nelson WWTF to address the issues of the aging facility and regulatory obligations.  The plan is also flexible to allow for the collection system issues to be mitigated over a 25-year period.
