Planned Unit Development-001660-2024 and zoning request BAZ-001703-2024 have been submitted in conjunction and encompass approximately 8.3-acres which is currently unplatted.

SUMMARY OF DEVIATION FROM THE BROKEN ARROW ZONING ORDINANCE
PUD-001660-2024 is proposed to be developed in accordance with the IL district of Zoning Ordinance except as specified below.

Additionally, the applicant would like to deviate from the Comprehensive Plan language” ...feature...masonry building facades.“ The proposed language is “...featuring...code-appropriate facades.“ The current zoning code requires walls facing arterial streets and highways be constructed of but not limited to: masonry, concrete panels, glass block, glass curtain walls, EIFS, or stucco. Based on the conceptual site plan at least two and at most three walls would require masonry.
ACCESS AND CIRCULATION
Access to the proposed development is provided by a driveway on Florence Street.
PROVISIONS FOR PUD APPROVAL
According to Section 6.4.A of the Zoning Ordinance, the PUD provisions are established for one (1) or more of the following purposes:
1. To permit and encourage innovative land development while maintaining appropriate limitation on the character and intensity of use and assuring compatibility with adjoining and proximate properties.
2. To permit greater flexibility within the development to best utilize the physical features of the particular site in exchange for greater public benefits than would otherwise be achieved through development under this Ordinance.
3. To encourage the provision and preservation of meaningful open space.
4. To encourage integrated and unified design and function of the various uses comprising the planned unit development.
5. To encourage a more productive use of land consistent with the public objectives and standards of accessibility, safety, infra structure and land use compatibility.
In Staff’s opinion, PUD-001660-2024 satisfies item five by providing a productive use of land and land use compatibility.
