City rules
Can I do that in Lansing?
The questions buyers ask before the fence goes up, from Lansing code, permit pages and local reporting. Rules change and HOA covenants can be stricter, so confirm with the city before you build.
Fences
A building permit from the City of Lansing is required to install a fence. Applications go through the city’s online permit portal and need a site plan, a declaration of construction value and project plans. Height limits and placement rules are set in the Unified Development Ordinance, so check it or call City Hall at 913-727-3233 before you build.
Sheds/accessory buildings
Accessory buildings such as sheds and detached garages need a permit if they are taller than 10 feet or larger than 120 square feet. Smaller structures under both limits, such as a storage shed or playhouse, do not need a permit. Placement and setbacks are governed by the Unified Development Ordinance.
Pools
Pools and hot tubs require a building permit in Lansing, as do decks, porches and pergolas. Required inspections must be scheduled at least 24 hours ahead, and requests made after 3 p.m. are scheduled for the second business day.
Trash & recycling
Waste Management collects trash, recycling and yard waste every Thursday under a city contract, and carts should be at the curb by 6 a.m. Service is $23 per month with a 95-gallon trash cart and a 65-gallon yellow-lid recycling cart. Glass, foam, pizza boxes and plastic bags are not accepted in recycling, and each home gets one free bulky-item pickup per year (call 800-964-8988).
Pets
Dogs and cats older than four months must be licensed with the city, and owners need a current rabies certificate to register. Keeping more than four animals requires a permit.
Fireworks
Consumer fireworks may be set off in Lansing from noon to 10 p.m. on July 1-3 and from noon to 11 p.m. on July 4. Bottle rockets, sky rockets and sky lanterns are not allowed. Confirm with City Hall before the holiday.
Garage sales
Lansing holds citywide garage sales in the spring and fall, and the city says no permit is needed for the event. Hanging signs on utility poles is illegal and can bring fines.
Home businesses
Some home occupations are allowed in residential zones, but you need a city business license. It costs $25 a year and runs January 1 through December 31. Call Community Development at 913-727-2400 before you open.
Snow removal
Residents must clear or treat the sidewalks next to their property within the time City Code allows and may not push driveway or sidewalk snow into the street. During a declared snow emergency, cars parked on Emergency Snow Routes are ticketed and towed at the owner’s expense. The plan dates to 2008, so confirm with City Hall.
Open burning
Lansing residents get burn permits from the Lansing fire station at 913-727-5844. Under the county’s posted rules, a permit is good only on the day it is issued, burns may run from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and someone must watch the fire the whole time. Confirm with City Hall.
Building permits
Yes, Lansing requires a building permit for new construction, additions, major home improvements, roofs, siding, windows and doors, plus electrical, mechanical and plumbing work, which must be done by city-licensed contractors. New roofs must include an ice and water shield. Apply online at permits.lansingks.org or call City Hall at (913) 727-3233.
Decks
Yes, decks, porches and pergolas need a building permit in Lansing. Apply through the city’s online permit portal at permits.lansingks.org, and confirm plan requirements with City Hall at (913) 727-3233.
Accessory dwelling units (ADUs)
One accessory dwelling is allowed per lot, only with a detached house; it can’t exceed 50% of the main home’s living area or 1,200 sq ft, whichever is less, and the owner must live in either the main home or the ADU (UDO Sec. 4.04.D).
Short-term rentals
Short-term rentals (stays under 30 consecutive days) need a conditional use permit; the owner must first get a city business license, name a primary contact reachable 24 hours a day while rented, and pass a building inspection with smoke alarms and fire extinguishers (UDO Sec. 4.03.B, 4.05.G).
Beekeeping
Hobby beehives are allowed on parcels over 5 acres; smaller parcels need a conditional use permit, and hives must be at least 200 feet from any structure the beekeeper doesn’t own (UDO Article 4, Table 4-2 and agriculture use definitions; Ord. 1062).
Outdoor storage & inoperable vehicles
In residential districts, inoperable vehicles and other open storage can’t stay outside more than 9 consecutive days unless kept inside a fully enclosed building (UDO Sec. 4.06.H).
Driveways & front-yard parking
In residential districts, no parking area other than a driveway is allowed in the front yard, and driveways may cover no more than 35% of the front yard (Land Development Code Sec. 7.02.A.1, Table 7-1). Outside a platted subdivision in A-1, R-1 and R-2 zones, a driveway may be compacted gravel at least 4 inches thick, but the first 50 feet next to a public road must be paved (Sec. 7.04.A).

Living in Lansing
Lansing history, jobs and parks
A little history
Lansing traces its start to 1878, when 90 acres co-owned by Doc Lansing and John C. Schmidt were platted into town lots and named the Town of Lansing. The name honors pioneer settler James Lansing, who later ran a general store that also held the post office and an apothecary. The community did not incorporate as a city until 1959. It grew quickly in the following decades, from 1,264 residents in 1960 to more than 11,000 by 2010, and today it is the second most populous city in Leavenworth County.
Where people work
Major employers based in Lansing include Lansing USD 469 (about 450 employees), the State of Kansas through Lansing Correctional Facility, the City of Lansing and Linaweaver Construction, according to the Leavenworth County Development Corporation. Many residents also commute to nearby Fort Leavenworth, the largest employer in the county with more than 9,000 workers, or to the VA Medical Center and Saint John Hospital in Leavenworth. Kansas City is less than a half-hour drive away.
Parks & outdoors
Kenneth W. Bernard Community Park at 15650 Gilman Road is the city’s largest park, with ball diamonds, fishing and a shelter, and it hosts the Fall Festival. City Park at 400 North 2nd Street has a ball diamond, playground and picnic tables, and Kelly Grove Park on East Gilman Road offers a walking trail. The city also runs an aquatic center and splash pad, and its trail system map is available from the city website.

Can I park a car or trailer on the front lawn in Lansing?
No. Lansing’s Land Development Code allows no parking area other than a driveway in the front yard of a residential lot, and driveways may cover no more than 35% of the front yard (Sec. 7.02.A.1). Inoperable vehicles and other open storage kept more than 9 consecutive days must be inside a fully enclosed building in residential districts (Sec. 4.06.H).
