ITEM 3: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A CITY
INITIATED REQUEST TO AMEND THE ZONING CODE OF THE CITY OF
OWASSO, RELATING TO CHAPTER 4, SECTION 430, "BULK AND AREA
REQUIREMENTS IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS"; MORE SPECIFICALLY,
TO ALLOW FOR RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNITS TO EXCEED 26 FEET
IN HEIGHT.
Mr Rooney presented the staff report, stating that approximately five weeks ago staff denied a
building permit for a residential structure that had a height listed on the application as being 6'
higher than the allowable limit. The applicant filed for a variance from the Board of
Adjustment, which was subsequently granted. The Planning Commission reviewed and approved
a text amendment at their November 18, 1993 meeting which would change the Zoning Code
requirements for height limits in residential districts to a maximum of 30' . Because of a
possible conflict of interest, Charles Bums recused from considering the question.
