Planned Unit Development (PUD)-204A involves 11.877 acres located one-half mile south of Houston Street, west of Highway 51, and west of the Creek Turnpike. 

 

HISTORY OF PUD-204

On January 19, 2010, the City Council approved BACP-107, to amend the comprehensive plan designation for the project site located west of State Highway 51 (S.H. 51) and the Creek Turnpike and north of Washington Street from Levels 2, 3 and 4 to Levels 2, 3 and 6. Approval of BACP-107 was subject to the property being developed though the Planned Unit Development process.

 

On October 19, 2010, the City Council approved PUD-204 and BAZ-1856 for commercial and industrial development for Jackson Mills Business Park, subject to the property being platted and to changes recommended by Staff. With this approval, the 126.88-acre site was rezoned from A-1 to R-2, CG, and IL/PUD-204 and divided the property into three (3) development areas based on use. Tract I is designated for commercial uses (along Highway 51), Tract II for light industrial uses, and Tract III for open space. Tract III is located on the north end of the property and was rezoned to R-2. The site was subject to the 2010 Zoning Ordinance with the exceptions included in PUD-204.  

 

On March 5, 2013, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 3222 amending the zoning ordinance of the City of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, approving BAZ 1856, granting R-2 and PUD 204 zoning classifications for a 7.32-acre tract to be conveyed to the owners of single-family residential lots in Oak Creek South to extend their back yards thereby creating a buffer between the residential use and the commercial and industrial uses of the business park (Oak Creek South Extended Plat, PT11-100A, and PUD-204).

 

This Planned Unit Development is now being referred to as Creek 51 Business Park. While the PUD document states that PUD-204 is expired, it is an active PUD in that it was vested when the R-2 portion of the site was platted and dedicated to the residential property owners in the Oak Creek South Plat. PUD-204A is a Major Amendment, and the initial phase of the development consists of four lots located along the east side of the site with two lots fronting on S.H. 51. One inconsistency between the preliminary plat (PT17-115) and PUD-204A is the dimension for the build line along S. 37th Street. The plat identifies the build line as 50 feet, and the PUD identifies it as 30 feet. Either front build line dimension is acceptable in an industrial district as long as they are consistent.
