Congratulations Scott Lakin! Congratulations to long time member Scott Lakin for graduating with an executive MBA degree from the Henry Bloch School of Business at UMKC on May 6.

Riverside ‘Open For Business’ with 260 - Acre Office and Industrial Innovation ProjectRiverside on Tuesday, May 10 named a unit of Briarcliff Development Co. to develop Horizons, a 260-acre site at Interstate 635 and Missouri 9, and unveiled a plan calling for a park-like setting to be home for a projected 5,900 jobs over the next generation. Briarcliff Development said construction would begin this year on an estimated $12 million plan, including 25 acres of lakes, three miles of tree-lined canals and land-set aside for public use and recreational purposes that is projected to connect to the Missouri River Trail. “Riverside is open for business,” declared Mayor Kathleen Rose. “In the years since the state-of-the-art Mis-souri River levee was built to protect hundreds of acres in our community, we focused on creating the best possible economic development initiative for land the city owns. We have that today.” Nathaniel Hagedorn, COO of Briarcliff Development Co., said that Briarcliff Horizons LLC, a unit of Briarcliff Development, projects that 2.6 million square feet of total building area will be constructed on 260 acres of city-owned land over the next 20 years with a total estimated private investment in excess of $300 million. Rose said today’s announcement represented an evo-lution fostered by the 2010 update of the city’s Master Plan prepared by BNIM Architects of Kansas City. The update was fueled with input from four town hall meetings, com-munity surveys and dozens of internal planning meetings. Five proposals to develop the Horizons site in accordance with the Master Plan’s vision were reviewed before the city chose Briarcliff Development. “Horizons is about vision, commitment and partner-ship,” Rose said. “We engaged the community in this process, and Riverside residents challenged us to think about the best possible project, because our town and the entire region will live with this decision for the next 50 to 100 years. The Board of Alderman is committed to this ap-proach, and Briarcliff Development brought us the creative solution the community said it wanted.” A key to the vision, Rose and Hagedorn said, is the

nature of the infrastructure improvements. What is now an open field - highly visible to 75,000 passing vehicles each day on Interstate 635 and Missouri 9 - will be transformed into a amenity-laden setting with water features, canals and lakes with adjoining pathways, trees, landscaping and public recreational opportunities. A community amphithe-ater appears in an initial concept drawing for the site, and it is hoped that Horizons can be connected in due course to the nearby Missouri Riverfront Trail. Construction is scheduled to begin this summer, and Hagedorn expects to have building sites available as early as spring 2012. The flexible master plan prepared by NSPJ Architects, Prairie Village, Kan., accommodates building sites ranging from 20,000 to 500,000 square feet for buildings up to four or more stories.
