4. OBOA 17 -01— Special Exception Request — Consideration and appropriate action
related to a request for approval of a special exception to allow a billboard. The subject
property is located at approximately 7304 North Owasso Expressway, Owasso, OK. The
property is zoned IL (Industrial Light).
Bronce Stephenson presented the item and described the property location. The billboard
location lies within Owasso City Limits, where billboards are not allowed. The applicant has
a letter authorizing the transfer of billboard rights to the proposed location. The Board of
Adjustment is asked to make a decision authorizing a Special Exception to allow a billboard
in this location. Under typical circumstances, staff would not be in favor of allowing a
billboard within City Limits, but because the applicant has a letter authorizing the transfer of
rights, staff is in favor of honoring the agreement. Letters were mailed to property owners
within 300' of the subject property and the request was advertised in the Owasso Reporter.
Staff received no objections concerning OBOA 17 -01. The Chair opened the floor for public
comments. A decorative brick treatment around the base of the sign is required.
