End
Background:
Planned Unit Development (PUD) 244 involves 26.29 acres located one-quarter mile north of the northwest corner of Jasper Street and Aspen Avenue. BAZ 1949, a request to rezone this property from A-1 (Agricultural) to RS-3 (Single-Family Residential) has been submitted in conjunction with PUD 244. The property is undeveloped and unplatted. Applicant is proposing to develop a gated, single-family detached neighborhood with private streets. The streets, which will be owned and maintained by the Homeowners Association, will be constructed to City of Broken Arrow standards. Sidewalks will be installed in accordance with the Subdivision Regulations.
This 26.29 acre property is currently undeveloped and zoned A-1. On December 3, 2007, the City Council approved an earlier rezoning request, BAZ 1788, to change the zoning on part of the property associated with PUD 244 to R-2S, subject to platting. The property was never platted; as a result, the zoning remains A-1.
The north part of this property is located within an area that was previously included with BAZ 1781 and PUD 181, which were approved by the City Council on October 15, 2007, subject to the property being platted. The underlying zoning requested with BAZ 1781 was R-3S. Part of PUD 181 was platted as the Spring Creek Addition. However, the property associated with the current request PUD 244, that was located within PUD 181 has not been platted and is located on the south side of a floodplain area. Since this portion was not platted, it is still zoned A-1. Applicant has requested that the previous rezoning requests approved on this property be abrogated.
Two Development Areas, A and B, are proposed with PUD 244. Development Area A, which is adjacent to Aspen Avenue, will be developed in accordance with the use and development regulations of the RS-3, single-family residential district. No changes are requested to the RS-3 development regulations with PUD 244. A 10-foot wide landscape reserve area will be provided adjacent to Aspen Avenue with landscaping provided in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance. The landscape reserve area and fence along Aspen Avenue will be owned and maintained by the homeowners association.
Development Area B contains the 100-year floodplain of Aspen Creek and will be developed in accordance with the use and development regulations of the FD (Floodplain District). The only permitted uses are open space and passive recreation.
Planned Unit Development (PUD) 244 and BAZ 1949 were recommended for approval by the Planning Commission (4-0 vote) in their meeting of December 3, 2015, per Staff recommendations. There were no protestants. In addition, Staff recommends BAZ 1788, that was approved by the City Council on December 3, 2007, be dismissed. Also, Staff recommends the portion of the property associated with PUD 244 and BAZ 1949 located in the area associated with PUD 181 and BAZ 1781 be abrogated.
