During the Overland Park Planning Commission meeting on February 10, 2025, a significant decision was made regarding the approval of a revised preliminary plan for a new drive-through establishment. The commission staff expressed their support for the applicant's request, recommending approval of the plan, identified as PDP 20 20 four-forty 6, with specific stipulations.

The discussion highlighted that the proposed drive-through will not include an order box or speaker system, which raised questions among the commissioners. Commissioner Wei sought clarification on these features, emphasizing the importance of understanding the operational aspects of the drive-through. The applicant, CEO and founder of Hyper Energy Bar, confirmed that while digital signage would be present, there would be no intercom system for orders.

This decision marks a step forward for the Hyper Energy Bar as it seeks to establish its presence in Overland Park, reflecting the city's ongoing efforts to diversify its dining options. The approval is expected to enhance local business opportunities and provide residents with more convenient food service options.

As the project moves forward, the community can anticipate further developments regarding the implementation of this drive-through, which aims to meet the needs of Overland Park's growing population.
