Ms Bishop presented the item, stating that the City Council has approved a carryover budget

be carried over and utilized in the next fiscal year. A total of $519,729 remains unexpended
from the 1997-98 budget. Of that amount, $346,762 is recommended for carryover. Mr Wilken

budget and a supplemental appropriation to the FY 1998-99 General Fund budget of $346,762,

ITEM 12:
CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A
REQUEST FROM DOROTHY HART FOR ANNEXATION OF AN
APPROXIMATE 3.60-ACRE PARCEL OF LAND LOCATED NORTH OF
MORTON MARINE ON GARNETT ROAD.
Ms Dorothy Hart, along with Mr & Mrs Everett Roach, has submitted a petition requesting
annexation of properties which combined total approximately 5.26 acres. The subject properties
are located north of Morton Marine, east of Garnett Road. Mr Rooney said that the purchaser
of the subject properties has indicated the intent to combine the property with additional property
to the north to be utilized as a commercial site. The properties are currently zoned RE
(Residential Estates) in Tulsa County, but will become AG (Agriculture) upon annexation. A
review of the annexation policy indicates that the properties do not meet established guidelines
relative to tract size. The guidelines were initiated in order to prevent spot annexation, however
these properties are adjacent to existing city limits and will assist ongoing efforts to eliminate
Tulsa County parcels surrounded by property that lies within the City of Owasso. All required
entities have reviewed the request and recommended annexation. Dr Standridge moved,
seconded by Ms Barnhouse, to approve the request from Ms Dorothy Hart for annexation into
the city limits of Owasso.
AYE: Standridge, Barnhouse, Wilken, Bode

ITEM 14:

E 116TH ST N AND MINGO RD. FURTHER DESCRIBED AS LOT 1.
BLOCK L HILLSIDE ESTATES ADDITION: FROM AG (AGRICULTURE)

The City has received a request from Linda Meeker, dba German Corner Gymnastics, for the
rezoning of property from AG to CS (Commercial Shopping Center) to allow for the
development of the site as a gymnastics facility. Mr Warlick said that the Planning Commission
considered the request on August 11, 1998 and, after hearing concerns from citizens, the
Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve a rezoning to OL (Office Light). Section
1530 of the Owasso Zoning Code allows the Planning Commission to consider and act on zoning
classifications of lesser intensity than what was requested. The rezoning of the property to OL
would still allow the applicant to operate a gymnastics facility at the location. Dr Standridge
moved, seconded by Ms Barnhouse, to approve the rezoning of the above-described property
from AG to OL.
