Background:
PT-001984-2025, the conditional final plat for Spring Creek Crossing proposes to have 132 lots on 36.99 acres. This property, which is located north of Tucson Street and west of 9th Street, has been approved for rezoning from A-1 (Agricultural) to RS-4 (Single-Family Residential)/PUD-001360-2024 (Planned Unit Development), subject to the property being platted.
Single-family lots encompass the majority of the proposed plat, and these lots generally meet the minimum standards of the RS-4 zoning district with the subsequent variances set forth in the accompanying PUD. A portion of the proposed plat also provides land designated as reserve areas which can serve as stormwater detention and be used for neighborhood amenities. Primary access to this development will be provided on Tucson Street and Raleigh Street will provide access to the adjoining subdivision South Ridge Park.
According to FEMA maps, none of the property is located in the 100-year floodplain. Water and sanitary sewer are available from the City of Broken Arrow. This preliminary plat was reviewed by the Technical Advisory Committee on February 18, 2025. The Planning Commission, in their meeting of February 27, 2025, recommended approval (5-0 vote) of this conditional final plat. Two citizens spoke to this item with general comments about landscape buffering and the construction process.
At the April 15, 2025, City Council meeting, this item was tabled to allow the developer to address a host of issues as it pertains to erosion control, capturing stormwater runoff, and general construction methods.
On May 8, 2025, several city officials met with the adjacent property owners to discuss the stormwater issues at hand. It was made clear that there are two (2) issues at hand. One is the “dirty” stormwater runoff. This issue is a construction issue. The Property Owner/Developer and its Contractor are solely and collectively responsible to maintain the construction site in such a fashion that does not allow sediment transport to be conveyed off of the developed property and damage adjacent property owners. This is a code enforcement matter that Engineering and Construction oversees through the State of Oklahoma General Permits OKR04 and OKR10. The City has required the Property Owner/Developer and its Contractor to clean the public rights of ways and to work out arrangements to address the adjacent property owners issues in the Southfork subdivision.
The second issue is a platting matter and is not connected to the first issue except for the fact that the Property Owner/Developer has elected to sod the slope of the properties along the eastern boundary of Spring Creek subdivision in order to reduce stormwater runoff and sediment transport. This work has been completed as of May 30, 2025.
Therefore, since the Property Owner/Developer and its Contractor has complied with the proposed solution to remedy and mitigate the erosion of the soils and sediment transport of those soils into the neighboring subdivision, Staff recommends approval of this item.
