Kansas City, MO, July 29, 2026 —
Costco is evaluating the possibility of continuing to offer pharmacy services at its Midtown Kansas City location, situated at 241 Linwood Blvd. This consideration is part of the company’s broader strategy to transform the existing store into a business center.
Councilman Crispin Rea has been a vocal proponent for the continued operation of the pharmacy services at this site. He has emphasized the critical role these services play, particularly for vulnerable populations and elderly residents in the community who rely on them.
The future of the pharmacy services hinges on the City Council’s upcoming vote. The City Plan Commission has already given its approval to Costco’s rezoning request for the property. The City Council is scheduled to deliberate and cast their vote on August 6th.
If the rezoning is approved and Costco proceeds with its plans to convert the store into a business center, the decision regarding the pharmacy’s future will be a key factor for local residents and stakeholders.
