4. Nestpark Baptist Church ® Petition for Annexation

The applicants request annexation of a five acre tract located
at the Std /c of 116th Street North and 109th East Avenue, There is
an existing church on the property which currently receives Owasso
water and sewer service. Existing streets abut the property on
two sides. The property does not appear to be within the 100 yeas.,
f,loodplaino The property is surrounded on three sides by Owasso
city limits and could be served easily by Owasso police and fare
departments. Rights-of-way -way for the two abutting streets would be
00' and 25', respectively. The granting of adequate rights -of -way
should be strongly encouraged, There do not appear to be any
negative land use reasons why the property should not be annexed,.
Ron Jennings spoke for church members saying they wanted to have city
police and fire protection and to build onto their church. They stated
that Owasso' s building codes were easier for their members to work with,
Commissioners discussed with them the importance of granting adequate
street right- of-way and the requirement of Board of Adjustment review of
the church uses in new buildings or additions,
Ma Day moved approval of the annexation. R. Haynes seconded the motion.
Aye: Day, Haynes and Hinkle,.

NEW AND GENERAL BUSINESS
Ho Comments from Jerry Cole
Jerry Cole, representing a local homeowners` association, made a statement
to commissioners concerning his opposition to the development of a 40 acre
mobile home park and sewage lagoon located on Guth Street North east of
129th East Avenue" He stated his association would petition the County
Commission to downzone the property form RMH to RE. He asked the Commission
to write a letter explaining the problems of developing the land for mobile
homes.
Chairman Hinkle suggested that staff could provide information from the
Comprehensive Plan as to proposed uses for the property, informally without
-the Commission taking formal action. She said Owasso would be asked -for a
referral if there is a new zoning hearing Mr. Cole also made a statement
regarding his feelings that there should be a moritorium on approving more
apartments and mobile homes because of the taxes for schools that they
were overloading -the towns with kids from homes not paying their share of
taxes. He stated 'that he might run for elective office beca se of these
beliefs.
The Commission took no formal action on these items,
There being no 'further business to consider, Mr Day moved to adjourn the
meeting with R. Haynes seconding the motion..
Aye: Hinkle, Haynes and Day.,
