on all the duplex lots with the proposed plat for `The Reserve on Elm Creek'.
This request was tabled at the October meeting due to the applicant's absence. The item

]HEARING DATE: November 23, 2004
LOCATION

The properties to the north, east, and west are utilized in an agricultural- residential
manner. A church and large lot residential are located to the south of the subject
property.
PRESENT ZONING
The property is part of OPUD 04 -01; the Planned Unit Development calls for a mixture
of Single Family homes (RS -3) and Duplex homes (RD) on the property. The application
is intended for the Duplex zoned lots within the development.
SURROUNDING ZONING
Properties to the north, east and west are zoned AG (Agricultural District) in Tulsa
County. The property to the south is zoned AG -R (Agricultural- Residential District) in
Tulsa County.
ZONING HISTORY
In May, 2004 the property was rezoned to OPUD 04 -01. The Planned Unit Development
calls for residential development in the form of single family homes and duplex homes.
In September, 2004 the applicant was granted a Variance from the Board of Adjustment
to allow reduced side yard setbacks on all of the duplex zoned lots.
ANALYSIS
The Board of Adjustment, upon application, and after notice and public hearing, may
grant variances from the terms of this code only upon a fording that the variance will not
cause substantial detriment to the public good or impair the spirit, purposes and intent of
the Owasso Zoning Code, or the Comprehensive Plan, where by reason of exceptional
narrowness, shallowness, shape, topography, or other extraordinary or exceptional
situation, condition, or circumstance peculiar to a particular property, the literal
enforcement of the code will result in unnecessary hardship. Provided that the Board in
granting a variance shall prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards, and may
require such evidence and guarantee or bond as it may deem necessary to enforce
compliance with the conditions attached.
The Dominion Corporation has requested a variance to allow a 20' front yard setback and
a 15' rear yard setback on the duplex zoned lots (lots 18 — 44) in the proposed `The
Reserve on Elm Creek' addition.
OPUD 04 -01 was a planned and approved development conceptualized by the applicant,
Dominion Corporation, as a tightly knit residential development containing a mix of
single family homes and duplex units. The intention of the Planned Unit Development
was to ensure uniformity of the subdivision. The development standards adopted in the
PUD call for 20' front yard and 15' rear yard setbacks on the single family housing sites
and setbacks per the Owasso Zoning Code for the duplex sites. The applicant was under
the impression that standard (according to the Owasso Zoning Code) front yard setback
requirements were 20' and rear yard setback requirements were 15' for the duplex units.
In fact the Owasso Zoning Code duplex front yard requirement is 25' and 20' for the rear
yard. This minor oversight has created standards for the proposed subdivision that will
deviate from the intended outcome of uniformity throughout the development. In order
to correct this oversight the applicant is requesting a variance from the Owasso Zoning
Code to allow the duplex units a front yard setback requirement of 20' and a rear yard
setback of 15'. The variance would provide the applicant with the intended outcome of
uniformity. As construction of the subdivision has yet to commence granting of the
variance would create no unforeseen detriment to surrounding lot owners as the standard
would be applied to all within the development.
Again, as the development has yet to take shape and considering that an equivalent front
and rear yard setback standard already applies to the single family residential lots,
granting the requested variance would pose no detriment to the proposed subdivision.
The variance would allow for greater equality and uniformity throughout the subdivision.
Decisions on this type of request can be and are often influenced by surrounding property
owners' comments /concerns. Letters were mailed to all property owners within three -
hundred (300) feet of the subject property and the request was advertised in the Owasso
Reporter. To date staff has received no inquiries concerning OBOA 04 -19.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of OBOA 04 -19 allowing the requested variance for 20' front
yard setbacks and 15' rear yard setbacks on the duplex lots (lots 18 — 44) within the
development.
