Dear Dr. Bryan Spriggs:
Thank you for affording me the opportunity to address some of the concerns you
expressed to the City Attorney regarding the proposed revisions to the Owasso
Animal Welfare Ordinances. I am attaching for your review a clean copy of the
ordinances with proposed revisions based upon your comments in blue. Please allow
me to provide an explanation on those areas not incorporated into the proposed code
revisions, but raised with the City Attorney in your discussions:
Section 4-101: You asked about use of the word "suitable" regarding adequate
shelter. This is the word that I have found in my research to be the most commonly
used in modern codes. I realize that "suitable" is not finite, but I believe that it is
substantial enough to sustain a constitutional challenge and is sufficient to convey
the standard to the citizens of Owasso.
You asked about determination of the crate size. This was based upon information
from Ruth Steinberger and a vet that I consulted in Bristow. Please let me know if
you think that this needs to be expanded.
You asked about elderly owners who might be in long-term care. Obviously, this
could create an issue. I believe, however, that there are sufficient safeguards in place
to protect the animals.
Section 4-107: You indicated your preference that citizens with small dogs be
allowed to have more than set forth in the draft Code and that the calculation be
based upon weight. I am not aware of any codes in Oklahoma that address the
number of animals by collective weight. My recommendation is that the Code
remain by number of animals because it is easier for citizens to understand and
Animal Control Officers to enforce. Importantly, most of the contact by Animal
Control Officers is complaint based. Unless small dogs over the set number are
creating a problem, it is unlikely that they will draw the attention of the City.
Section 4-108: You indicated your belief that individuals should have the ability to
maintain excrement on their property. Intervention by Animal Control Officers is
complaint -driven and if there is not an issue, it is unlikely that property owners will
be subject to rigid enforcement. However, I do believe that you are correct in that
the language may be somewhat restrictive in terms of requirements. As such, I am
recommending removal of the word "daily" from required pick up and the word
"all:'
Section 4-110: Your comments to this Section pertained to determination of the
number of animals by weight. I would ask that you please see my response to the
comments to Section 4-107 referenced above.
Section 4-116: You asked if the provisions of this Section had been reviewed by
beekeepers. I have not sent them to these individuals, but would be happy to do so
if you could please provide me with some contact information.
Section 4-117(B): You asked if the 40-pound limitation for reptiles was reasonable.
I used this number because it seemed to be the one referenced most frequently in the
Codes that I reviewed. Again, contact by Animal Control Officers would be
complaint -based. If you think that the number should be increased, please let me
know.
Section 4-120: You asked about inclusion of ferrets in the sections of the Code
requiring vaccination for rabies, as well as the ability of a veterinarian to have
discretion regarding immunization for rabies. I made those revisions, but provided
that the veterinarian had to approve waiver in writing.
Section 4-132: You expressed concern about the amount of time to claim an animal
and noted your belief that three (3) days was an insufficient amount of time. We had
considerable discussion about the amount of time from a staff level and this was the
number of days recommended by the Animal Control Officers. However, if the
animal is identifiable by tag, microchip, city records or other means, an owner will
have seven (7) days from the date a certified letter is mailed or left at the owner's
address. I did, however, provide clarification that the 7-day notice period would
exclude Sundays and City holidays.
Section 4-144: You indicated that people may want to sell chickens at the Farmer's
Market. They possess the ability to do this so long as it is permitted by the City.
Section 4-147: You requested that the proposed Code be revised to allow for male
dogs and cats to be neutered no earlier than 12-18 months and females to be spayed
no earlier than six (6) months or first heat. I made these revisions and also clarified
this in the provisions regarding release from the shelter.
Thank you again for your valuable input into these proposed revisions. As you know,
the City Council will again consider the proposed revisions at their work session on

SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS
FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION of the payment of SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
and 00/100's ($60,000.00) from The City of Owasso, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
the Undersigned, being of lawful age, does hereby release, acquit, agree to hold harmless, and
forever discharge The City of Owasso and Daniel Brockup, their heirs, representatives, successors,
assigns, and any agent, and employee, along with any other person, firm, corporation, contractor,
or entity who may be liable, (hereinafter referred to as the "Released Parties") from any and all
current and future actions, causes of action, claims of any kind or character, demands, damages,
costs, fees and expenses, in any way arising out of this incident, including but not limited to any
claims or actions for any and all known and unknown personal injuries, disabilities, property
damage, loss of services, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, pain and suffering, mental
anguish, or any other tort claim, which I may now have or hereafter have, resulting from an
accident that occurred on or about the 27th day of November, 2023, on East 1161h Street North in
the City of Owasso, Tulsa County, State of Oklahoma.
I hereby agree that as further consideration and inducement for this compromise settlement,
this settlement shall apply to all unknown and unanticipated injuries and damages resulting from
the above -described incident.
I hereby agree and further represent and warrant that I am completely, entirely and fully
responsible for any and all current or future liens, claims, or demands made by any and all
physicians, healthcare providers, hospitals, medical facilities, ambulance services, emergency
responders, dentists, chiropractors, practitioners of the healing arts or municipal, state or federal
governmental agencies, including but not limited to Medicaid, Medicare, the Social Security
Administration, and the Department of Health and Human Services, for the payment of bills and
for providing services, treatment, healthcare, use of medical facilities, prescriptions, medical
appliances or other medical services or aid rendered or provided to the Undersigned for injuries
sustained in the aforementioned incident, whether such liens or claims are known or unknown to
me at the present time, and I hereby promise for myself, my heirs, executors and assigns to release,
indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless the Released Parties and their attorneys for the full
amount, including the costs of defending any action, that they may hereafter be required or
compelled to pay as a result of the aforementioned incident, or as a result of any such claim, lien
or encumbrance, along with any claim for contribution, subrogation, indemnity, or otherwise, for
any amounts paid to me or for me because of this incident.
It is understood that the Released Parties have considered Medicare's interest in this
settlement and have determined that an allocation for future Medicare covered expenses is not
required pursuant to the policy and procedures established by the CMS Memoranda to protect
Medicare's interest as required by the Medicare Secondary Payer Statute and for the reasons set
forth below.
1 of 5
Any payments Medicare may have made for the Undersigned person's injury -related
medical expenses prior to settlement, even if payments were made by mistake, could result in a
Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) claim, which must be satisfied as part of the settlement. If not,
the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) can bring suit for repayment of Medicare's
claim against any entity which receives proceeds from the settlement, including the Undersigned
and my attorney, in a suit to recover its MSP claim, and further, CMS can seek double damages.
I affirm that I have not previously received and am not currently receiving Medicare
benefits, that I have never applied for, nor have I received SSDI benefits, that I do not have
expectations of becoming a Medicare beneficiary, that I have never been approved for SSDI
benefits and will not apply for SSDI benefits within thirty (30) months of the date of this
settlement. The Undersigned understands, and is aware, that should I become a Medicare
beneficiary within thirty (30) months of the date of this settlement, CMS (Medicare) may require
me to expend up to the entire settlement amount denoted in this agreement on Medicare covered
expenses related to the injury before Medicare will provide coverage for the injury and/or injuries.
Therefore, the Undersigned voluntarily accepts this risk and waives any claims against the
Released Parties, should Medicare take such action.
The Undersigned, further agrees to defend and hold harmless the Released Parties, and
counsel for the Released Parties, from any and all Medicare liens and/or Medicare requirements
set aside for trusts for future medical care and expenses.
To obtain payment of said sum, I now declare and represent that I am over eighteen (18)
years of age and that the injuries sustained are or may be permanent and progressive and that
recovery therefrom is uncertain and indefinite, and in executing this Release and Agreement it is
understood and agreed that I rely wholly upon my own judgment, belief and knowledge of the
nature, extent and duration of said injuries, and that I have not been influenced at all, or to any
extent whatsoever, in making this Release by any representations or statements regarding said
injuries, or regarding any other matters made by the persons, firms or corporations who are hereby
released, or by any person or persons representing them, or by any physician, healthcare provider,
hospital, medical facility, ambulance service, emergency responder, dentist, chiropractor,
practitioner of the healing arts, or anyone employed by them, or their agents.
I further understand and agree that this settlement is the compromise of a doubtful and
disputed claim, and that the payment is not to be construed as an admission of liability on the part
of the Released Parties, by whom liability is expressly denied.
I further state that I have voluntarily and freely chosen to enter into this settlement and
believe that this settlement is in my best interest, and in the best interest of all concerned, and that
I have not been coerced or tricked by anyone to enter into this Release, nor am I under any
economic duress which necessitates or requires that I enter into this Release.
This Release contains the ENTIRE AGREEMENT between the parties hereto, and the
terms of this Release are contractual and not a mere recital.

I further state that I have carefully read this Release and know the contents of it and sign
the same as my free act.

settlement. I have not been coerced or forced to settle this claim through economic duress, or
otherwise, and do so voluntarily because I believe this settlement is reasonable and, by doing so, I
can avoid the risks and uncertainty of trial.

SUBJECT: Specific Use Permit (SUP 24-02) - 11328 East 106+h Street North
DATE: September 6, 2024
BACKGROUND:
The Community Development Department received an application for review and approval of
a Specific Use Permit (SUP) to allow an automotive repair and maintenance use (for a proposed
car wash facility) in a Commercial Shopping (CS) zoning district. The subject property is located
at the southeastern corner of East 1061h Street North and North Garnett Road and is addressed
as 11328 East 106th Street North.

ANALYSIS:
• The subject property was annexed into Owasso City Limits in July of 2024 (Ordinance
1221).
• An SUP is required in certain zoning districts for uses or structures that may be considered
more intense than what is allowed by right, through the City of Owasso's Zoning Code.
• A conaash facility falls under the "automotive repair and maintenance" use category
outlined in Table 6.1 of the Owasso Zoning Code. In the CS zoning district, any
"automotive repair and maintenance" facility is allowed with an SUP.
o Thus, an SUP is needed for a carwash on this property, as it is zoned CS.
The GrOwasso 2035 Land Use Master Plan identifies the subject property for future
commercial uses.
o All surrounding parcels immediately adjacent to the subject property are also
identified for future commercial uses.
• The applicant has worked with staff to design the site and new structure in an
appropriate manner that conforms to the design requirements of the Zoning Code.
Page 2
SUP 24-02
o The proposed car was will be a 6-bay structure, composed of EIFS and concrete
masonry block, thus meeting the fagade requirements for commercial structures
seen within Chapter 11 of the Owasso Zoning Code.
• Phase 1 will construct four (4) bays. Phase 2 will be comprised of the
remaining two (2) bays.
o According to the conceptual site plan, the proposed structure is oriented with the
wash bays oriented east/west. The site plan also shows eight (8) vacuum stalls, all
located on the south side of the carwash, abutting vacant commercial property.
o The proposed structure appears to meet all setback requirements for CS -zoned
properties, as outlined in Chapter 6 of the Owasso Zoning Code.
o The conceptual site plan shows landscaping beds along all four sides of the
subject property. All landscaping requirements outlined in Chapter 19 of the
Owasso Zoning Code will have to be met. Screening fences are not required
along the boundaries of this subject property, as all of the surrounding parcels are
also commercially -zoned.
o As indicated on the conceptual site plan, the applicant intends to install lighting
immediately adjacent to the proposed building, adjacent to the internal drive
aisle. All lighting will have to comply with Chapter 20 of the Owasso Zoning Code.
o The applicant has indicated that the noise levels from the carwash will not
exceed the allowed decibels per the adopted Owasso Noise Ordinance.
• While the car wash will be operational twenty-four (24) hours per day, the
applicant has indicated that cars remain stationary within the bays while
in use. Therefore, the doors will remain closed during the night operation
hours of 9:OOpm to 7:OOam, to further dampen any noise from the dryer
blowers.
o The dumpsters for the site will be located on the southwestern corner of the
property and will be fully screened, per Chapter 19 of the Owasso Zoning Code.
All mechanical equipment, including equipment associated with the vacuums,
will also be fully screened.
The main purpose of the SUP requirement is to ensure the development does not impose
any negative direct impacts to adjoining properties and that the proposed use works in
harmony within the context of the area.
a This subject property adjoins other similarly -zoned properties, the Land Use Plan
calls out future commercial uses in this corridor, and the applicant has indicated
they will meet all applicable site -design regulations to minimize impacts on
adjoining properties.
Any further development that occurs on the subject property shall adhere to all
development, zoning, and engineering requirements of the City of Owasso.

SUBJECT: Annexation (OA 24-03) & Rezoning (OZ 24-03) —9727 East 116th Street North
DATE: September 6, 2024
BACKGROUND:
The Community Development Department received a request for the annexation and rezoning of
property located at 9727 East 1 16th Street North. The subject property is approximately 2.56 acres in size
and is currently zoned Agriculture Residential Single -Family, Rural Development (AG-R) within Tulsa
County. Upon annexation, the applicant is requesting the property be brought into Owasso City Limits
as Commercial Shopping (CS) via accompanying rezoning request OZ 24-03.

ANALYSIS:
The subject property is contiguous with City limits on the southern boundary of the property.
o Per Oklahoma State Statute, Title 11, Section 11-21-102, any territory separated by an
intervening strip less than four (4) rods (which is equivalent to 66 feet) wide is considered
"adjacent or contiguous to the municipality."
o Considering this, the subject property is contiguous as it is separated from Owasso City
Limits on its southern boundary by a strip of right-of-way that is twenty-five (25) feet
wide.
Typically, property is assigned a zoning of Agriculture (AG) by default upon annexation. The
applicant can also request the property retain the County's corresponding zoning designation
under the Owasso Zoning Code, or seek a concurrent rezoning based on what the GrOwasso
2035 Land Use Master Plan prescribes.
o In this case, the applicant is requesting that the subject property be annexed and
assigned a zoning of CS, via a concurrent rezoning request.
The GrOwasso 2035 Land Use Master Plan identifies the subject property for future
"Commercial" uses.
o As such, assigning a zoning of CS to the subject property upon annexation is consistent
with the long-range vision for the property in the Master Plan.
The subject property is currently unplatted, but will be required to go through the platting
processes prior to issuance of any commercial building permit(s).
OA 24-03/OZ 24-03

SUBJECT: Proposed Assessment Fee - Coffee Creek Lift Station and Force Main
Improvements
DATE: September 6, 2024
PROPOSED ACTION:
An item has been placed on the September 10, 2024, Worksession to discuss an assessment fee
for properties desirous of connecting to the Coffee Creek Sewer Lift Station and Force Main.
BACKGROUND:
Section 17-301 of the Code of Ordinances allows for costs associated with the construction of
designated sewer improvements, including costs for land, construction, professional fees, etc. to
be recouped through a per acre assessment fee.
This project was identified as a designated sewer improvement and the assessment area was
created by Ordinance 1124, adopted February 6, 2018. The area basin contains a total of 750
acres: 412 acres were developed before the creation of the assessment area; 75.6 acres have
developed since the creation of the assessment area; 262.4 acres remain undeveloped in the
assessment area.
TIMELINE AND COSTS:
• In August 2002, a local developer funded and constructed the original Coffee Creek Lift
Station and Force Main with a design capacity of 1 million gallons per day. In 2016, the
Wastewater Master Plan identified the lift pumps, wet well, generator, and force main
would need to be replaced within 5-10 years due to condition and anticipated capacity
increase for an additional 1 million gallons per day.
• In December 2017, Owasso Public Works Authority (OPWA) approved an engineering
services agreement with Kellogg Engineering, of Talala, Oklahoma, for $260,625.00.
• In May 2018, easement and land obtainment were completed for $218,093.72,
• In April 2021, OPWA approved a construction contract with MSB Construction, LLC of
Oologah, Oklahoma, for construction of the sewer improvements. The project was
completed and accepted by the OPWA in April 2023, for a total contract amount of
$5,021,070.23.

FROM: Roger Stevens, Senior Director of Operations
SUBJECT: Construction Management and Bid Awards for the Public Works Facility
DATE: September 6, 2024
PROPOSED ACTION:
An item has been placed on the September 10, 2024, Worksession to discuss the construction
management services and construction bids received for the Public Works Facility.
BACKGROUND:
• In October 2022, Owasso Public Works Authority approved an agreement for architectural and
engineering services with Beck Design to design the new Public Works Facility, on -site detention,
and other utility improvements.
• The project will include a new administration facility, field operations facility, fleet and facility
maintenance facility, and three equipment and material storage facilities, totaling 77,387
square feet.
• In April 2024, City Council approved an agreement for At -risk Construction Management
services with Miller-Tippens Construction of Glenpool, Oklahoma, where the basis of payment
will be the cost of the work, in accordance with the Oklahoma Public Competitive Bidding Act
(PCBA), plus the negotiated service fee for a determined guaranteed maximum price (GMP).
• In July 2024, Beck Design in collaboration with City staff and Miller-Tippens completed the
design and construction documents.
BIDS:
• In August 2024, Miller-Tippens Construction sent out a request for bids and advertised following
City ordinances and the PCBA. Bids for the separate components of work were publicly opened
and read aloud at 2:00pm on September 4, 2024.
• City staff, Miller-Tippens Construction, and Beck Design are currently reviewing each bid for
compliance and to prepare a bid tabulation.
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AT RISK:
Staff is proposing to amend the agreement with Miller-Tippens Construction to include
construction management at risk services with a GMP.
The Construction Management at Risk (CMAR) is a delivery method that entails a commitment by
the Construction Manager to deliver the project within a GMP that is based on the construction
documents and project specifications, plus any reasonably inferred items or tasks.
The CMAR provides professional services and is a consultant to the owner in the construction
phase. The CMAR must manage and control construction costs to not exceed the GMP because
contractually any costs exceeding the GMP that are not approved change orders are the
financial liability of the CMAR.

The proposed amendment to the agreement with Miller-Tippens Construction will establish a "not
to exceed " dollar amount for the entirety of the project. Only a change or addition to the scope
of work, at the direction of the City, would result in aqdditional expenditures above the final
contract amount. The proposed contract includes a 10% contingency amount, intended for use
only if unknown conditions arise that would change the scope of work. This contingency may only
be utilized by authorization from the City after any and all alternatives are considered between
the owner, architect, and construction management firm. Any change order or subsequent bid
award and additional work outside of the original scope of work shall be authorized by the City
per City and State requirements.
FUNDING:
Funding is available in the Capital Improvements Fund.

SUBJECT:
Healthcare Self -Insurance Fund and Stop Loss Reimbursements
DATE:
September 6, 2024
BACKGROUND:
In 2004, the City Council approved a policy to establish the Healthcare Self -Insurance Fund for
employee health, dental, and vision insurance. The Healthcare Self -Insurance Fund covers the
cost of claims and administration, with financing provided by premiums paid by employees and
departments.
Self -Insuring means that instead of paying premiums to an insurance company, the City covers
the cost of claims directly through a third -party administrator. This approach allows the City to
retain any budgeted funds that are not spent on claims. To manage that risk, the City carries Stop
Loss coverage, which limits liability for any one individual. If a member's claim exceeds the Stop
Loss amount, the Stop Loss carrier will cover the excess cost.
For the last six years, Stop Loss coverage has been purchased through AETNA, which also
administers the City's healthcare plan and provides the doctor network. AETNA's Stop Loss
coverage automatically took over payment of claims once an individual hit the Stop Loss amount.
During the recent renewal, AEfNA proposed a 30.5% increase in Stop Loss coverage costs. In
collaboration with the City's Agent of Record, the decision was made to seek competitive quotes
for Stop Loss coverage. AETNA ultimately agreed to maintain the current Stop Loss rate without
an increase. However, the competitive quotes revealed an opportunity to save $400,000
compared to AETNA's proposed rates. As of July 1, Stop Loss coverage has been transferred to
SunLife, resulting in this $400,000 savings.
NEW PROCESS:
With the transfer of Stop Loss coverage to SunLife, the City will be required to pay the full amount
of all claims and will receive monthly reimbursements for claims exceeding the Stop Loss amount.
Following receipt of reimbursements, staff will include an item on the consent agenda requesting
City Council approval for a budget amendment in the Healthcare Self -Insurance Fund to increase
the budgeted revenues and expenditures by the amount of the Stop Loss reimbursements
received. The reimbursement revenue received will offset the increase in expenditures for
healthcare claims.
