Page No. 3
Larry Price — 9925 N 120 E Ave — Presented a petition with 125 signatures. Would like the
zoning to remain as is. Concerns with the safety of children due to the nonresidential
traffic. Concerned with the noise pollution this development would create. Concerns
regarding the possible decline in property values.
Sandra Kesler — 10109 N 124 E Ave — Concerns with the helipad, generators, traffic,
biochemical waste, cooling towers and the assisted living residential portion. Would like
more time to explore both hospital requests and decide which one is best for local residents.
Ken Taylor — 11901 E 100 St No — Would like to see limited access for emergency traffic
only on E. 100 St. No. Maybe install a barrier gate or crash gate at that location.
Cindy Landwehr — 10220 N 124 E Ave — Agrees with all the concerns. Also concerned
with the height of the hospital, four story building is not compatible with the residential to
the north and west. It will be an invasion of privacy.
Jack Whitaker — 11323 N 96 E Ave — Stormwater management concerns
Joe Esposito — 10110 N 124 E Ave — This request is not responsible land development, the
residential neighborhood will be destroyed. A 50' buffer is nothing, keep the zoning
residential. The light pollution and blowing. trash from Wal -Mart is incredible this
development will be the same.
Mike Helm — 20233 So 4080 Rd — Concerns with water suppression. Concerns regarding
traffic on N. 129th E. Ave. at the bridge, especially on Sunday mornings with church traffic.
Give this request more time.
Beverly Jennings — 11417 E 101 St No — Owasso needs a hospital but not two hospitals.

staff and TAC recommendations. Also subject to the following conditions being met:
1. Provide a 5' elevated berm, with an orderly row of trees planted on top adjacent to
residential districts.
