PUD-001785-2024 is a request to amend PUD-001521-2024. This property is currently un-platted and undeveloped and is located north of Houston Street (81st Street), one-quarter mile west of 23rd Street (193rd East Avenue/County Line Road).
PUD-001521-2024 and BAZ-001569-2024 were approved by City Council on August 5th, 2024. After this was approved, the applicant requested this major amendment to amend the development areas of PUD-001521-2024. The allowed uses of development area 1 allow for the outdoor storage and distribution of completed relocatable buildings. Development area was proposed to be 12 acres, and with his major amendment the applicant is proposing to increase this to 17.95 acres.
Landscaping
PUD-001521-2024 requires a 300’ landscape edge along Houston for development area 1, while development area 2 requires a 200’ landscape edge. This area is proposed to be used for a detention pond, and the required landscaping. As a part of PUD-001785-2024 the applicant is requesting to keep the 300’ landscape edge for the original width of development area 1, but proposes to decrease the landscape edge of the eastern most 241’ to the 200’ landscape edge that is required for development area 2. This requested change is shown in the conceptual layout in the attached design statement.

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.
Staff believes that PUD-001785-2024 meets provisions 1,2, and 3 by providing a large landscape buffer and beautification along Houston Street.
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.
