Approval of BAZ-1959 (rezoning request), The Oaks Off Main, 0.96 acres, R-3 to DM, north of Commercial Street between Cedar Avenue and Birch Avenue
End
Background:
BAZ 1959 is a request to change the zoning designation 0.96 acres from R-3 (Single-Family Residential) to DM (Downtown Mixed-Use Core). This undeveloped, vacant property was platted as part of the Original Town of Broken Arrow and is located north of Commercial Street between Cedar Avenue and Birch Avenue. The applicant is interested in constructing "Brownstone" type single-family, attached housing units on this property.
According to the renderings submitted by the applicant, 16, two and three-story dwelling units are proposed. "Brownstone" type single-family attached housing units are permitted uses in the DM zoning which is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan, within Level 5. Since this property is not part of a PUD, development of this site will be in accordance with the DM regulations of the Zoning Ordinance.
The Downtown Residential Coordinating Committee reviewed and recommended approval of BAZ-1959 in their meeting in May, 2016. The Downtown Advisory Board reviewed and recommended approval of this rezoning request in their meeting on July 12, 2016. In addition, the Planning Commission reviewed and recommended approval (3-0 vote) of BAZ-1959, The Oaks Off Main, as recommended by Staff.
One person spoke, at the Planning Commission hearing, in favor of residential uses for this property. There were no protestants.
