MEMORANDUM
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: LARISSA DARNABY
CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: OZ-O8-03, A REQUEST FOR REZONING OF .24 ACRES LOCATED
AT 109 WEST 2"D STREET NORTH
DATE: MAY 5, 2008
BACKGROUND:
In order to further facilitate the development of their property for duplex use, Maven Investments,
LLC requests their property be rezoned from an RS-3 (Single-Family Residential) Zoning District
to an RD (Residential Duplex) Zoning District. A general area map is attached for review.
PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS:
The property is currently developed with a single family dwelling unit and is zoned RS-3 (Single
Family Residential). The subject site is .24 acres in size. The property will be served by
municipal water, wastewater, police, fire, and EMS service.
DESCRIPTION OF RD ZONING DISTRICT:
The RD zoning district is designed to permit a more intense yet compatible use of tracts in or near
single-family residential and other neighborhoods.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS OF ZONING REQUESTS:
Section 1500 of the Owasso Zoning Code outlines the city's policy on zoning amendments. The
code states that amendments will be adopted to recognize changes in the Comprehensive Plan, or to
recognize changing conditions in a particular area or in the jurisdictional area. Zoning changes must
be based on two fundamental questions: 1) Does the requested zoning allow a land use that is
appropriate for the subject property, and 2) Is the requested zoning in conformance with the Owasso
Land Use Master Plan?
Development considerations such as traffic, roads, grading, drainage, stormwater detention, utilities,
rights-of--way, etc, are not to be considered until the platting stage of development. At the platting
(and site planning) stage, the Planning Commission, municipal staff, and the Technical Advisory
Committee work with the applicant to solve these types of specific development concerns.
The proposed development for this property is a duplex.
CONFORMANCE TO MASTER PLAN DESIGNATION:
The requested zoning designation, RD (Residential Duplex), is allowed within the master plan's
designation for the property.
ANALYSIS:
The subject property lies to the northeast of 2"d and Atlanta, and is adjacent to compatible
residential development. The developer is requesting a rezoning to facilitate the construction and
utilization of a duplex upon the subject tract. The existing structure shall be removed from the
property prior to the issuance of a building permit.
Letters were mailed to surrounding property owners and the legal advertisement was published
in the Owasso Reporter.
If the Commission approves this application it will then require City Council approval.
PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING:
The Owasso Planning Commission will consider the request at a public hearing on May 12,
2008.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff intends to recommend Council approval of OZ 08-03.

MEMORANDUM
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: LARISSA DARNABY
CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR AN EASEMENT CLOSURE, AT 10603 EAST 86Tx
STREET NORTH
DATE: MAY 6, 2008
BACKGROUND:
The City of Owasso received a request from Kum and Go for the closing of a drainage easement
located on property recognized as 10603 East 86`h Street North. The location of the building
encroaches upon this easement, thus requiring the vacation.
PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS:
The tract is zoned for CG (Commercial General). The existing land use is a gas
station convenient store. The property to the north is recognized as Temple Business Park, the
property to the east is recognized as Brookwood Apartments, and the property to the West is the
Owasso Public Schools 7`h Grade Center.
The subject property is located at 10603 E.86`h Street North and is served by municipal water,
wastewater, police, fire, and EMS service.
ANALYSIS:
The applicant is requesting that the existing drainage easement on the property be vacated
because the existing structure currently encroaches upon the easement. The easement was
originally granted to cover an 18" storm sewer that ran across the property. The storm sewer has
been relocated and staff finds that the easement closure will have no impact on the subject tract
or surrounding areas.
The Technical Advisory Committee considered the item at their regular meeting on April 23,
2008. At that meeting, utility providers and city staff are afforded the opportunity to comment on
the application and request any changes or modifications. There were no comments.
PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING:
The Owasso Planning Commission will consider the request at a public hearing on May 12,
2008.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff intends to recommend Council approval of the request for an easement closure.

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: TIMOTHY ROONEY
ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: E. 86TH STREET NORTH (MAIN TO MEMORIAL)
PROPOSED SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT
TULSA COUNTY/C2A ENGINEERING
DATE: May 6, 2008
BACKGROUND:
In 2005, Tulsa County voters approved a million dollar expenditure (under the "4-to-Fix
the County" program) as matching funding for the widening of E. 86`" Street North
between Main Street and US Highway 75. Following the award, city staff began
discussions with Tulsa County to better define the scope of improvements due to the
limitations in funding. Initial discussions included enhancements to the road between
Main Street and N. Mingo Road, serving to complete improvements to E. 86t" Street
North between US Highway 169 and N. Mingo Road.
TULSA COUNTY AGREEMENT:
On June 23, 2006, Tulsa County submitted an Agreement to provide improvements on E.
86t" Street North, from Main Street to Memorial Road. Per the agreement, the City of
Owasso consents to provide the right-of--way, utility relocation and engineering services.
The County, in exchange, agreed to provide $1,000,000 in matching federal highway
funding and assist in the application for such federal funds and financing of engineering
services.
ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENT:
Following concurrence by Tulsa County and the City of Owasso staff, C2A Engineering,
Inc., submitted a proposal for the performance of design work associated with
improvements to E. 86t Street North between Main and Memorial. C2A Engineering
was selected as a result of their success in design work on the E. 86`" Street North and
Mingo Road project, as well as their ability to facilitate discussions with ODOT, Tulsa
County, and INCOG that ultimately made possible the award of additional funding for
that project. The amount of the Engineering Services Agreement was $180,000.
Both the Tulsa County Agreement and the Engineering Services Agreement were
approved by the City Council in July of 2006.
PROPOSED SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT #1:
Attached, for your information and review, is a proposed Supplemental Agreement #1 for
the Engineering Services. The supplemental agreement is necessary due to the need for
the design of a waterline relocation for Washington County Rural Water District #3.
Initially, the County and C2A Engineering believed that the design work for the waterline
relocation was going to be performed by Washington County Rural Water District #3
personnel.
If approved by the Council, the Supplemental Agreement #1 will allow for the
completion of the engineering design and construction plans for the relocation of the
Washington County Rural Water District #3 line. The total cost of the proposed
supplemental agreement is $17,976.
FUNDING:
Funds for this project are provided by Tulsa County 4-to-Fix Program and ODOT.
Additionally, matching City funding is included within the Capital Improvements Fund.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff intends to recommend Council approval of Supplemental Agreement #1 to the
Agreement for Engineering Services for East 86`" Street North (Main Street to Memorial)
with C2A Engineering in the amount of $17,976.

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: ROGER STEVENS
INTERIM PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: OKLAHOMA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
EAST 116TH STREET NORTH AND NORTH 135TH EAST AVENUE
SIGNALIZATION
DATE: May 7, 2008
BACKGROUND:
In the fall of 2007, the Garrett Creek Commercial shopping center complex, located southwest of
East 116th Street North and U.S. Highway 169, opened for business. This complex includes
Reasor's Supermarket, Alexander's Furniture, Subway restaurant, and U.S. Cellular Phone store.
Sonic has a restaurant located in the same area which opened in 2006.
Due to the increased amount of traffic produced by the addition of these businesses, signalization
was needed at the intersection of East 116th Street North and North 135th East Avenue. This
intersection falls within right of way owned by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation
(ODOT). Public Works Engineering personnel contacted the ODOT Division VIII Traffic
Engineer to request a traffic study be conducted at the intersection in order to justify
signalization.
Following the ODOT traffic study, the City of Owasso received correspondence dated October 8,
2007 (see Attachment A), from Randall White, P.E., ODOT Division VIII Engineer, authorizing
the City of Owasso to proceed with the installation of signalization at this intersection.
PROJECT FUNDING:
The installation cost for this project was funded by private dollars. The City provided hardware
to include poles, signal heads, and the control cabinet. This equipment will be returned to the
City when East 116th Street North is improved and permanent signalization equipment is
installed.
PROPOSED FINAL PROJECT AGREEMENT:
ODOT has prepared a Final Project Agreement (see Attachment B) to outline the responsibilities
of the City of Owasso and ODOT for the completion of signalization improvements. Key
provisions of the Agreement are as follows:
• The City will install equipment that will interconnect with the new signals currently
being installed at the U.S. Hwy. 169 and East 116th Street North/U.S. Hwy. 20
intersections.
• The City agrees to manage this project to ensure the contractor complies with all state
regulations.
• The City agrees to assume any and all financial obligations for the operation and
maintenance of the signalization equipment.
In addition to the Project Agreement, the City must also execute a Resolution agreeing to provide
maintenance for the signals (see Attachment C). The City Attorney has reviewed the Resolution
and Agreement and has found them to be in proper order.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Staff intends to recommend Council approval of a proposed resolution authorizing the
Mayor to execute the final Project Agreement for the Traffic Signalization at East 116th
Street North and North 135th East Avenue intersection.
2. Staff intends to recommend Council authorization of the Mayor to execute the final
Project Agreement for Signalization Improvements at East 1161 Street North and North
135th East Avenue.

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE CHAIR AND TRUSTEES
OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY
FROM: ROGER STEVENS
INTERIM PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: ANNUAL WATER QUALITY REPORT
WATER QUALITY REPORT CERTIFICATE
OF COMPLETION AND DISTRIBUTION
DATE: May 8, 2008
BACKGROUND:
Every year, in conformance with the Safe Drinking Water Actl, the City of Owasso prepares and
distributes over 8,700 Water Quality Reports to our customers in an effort to enable our citizens
to make practical and knowledgeable decisions about their health and the environment. The
report contains basic educational information on the water quality -including levels of any
detected contaminants, and compliance with drinking water rules. At a minimum, the report must
provide consumers with the following fundamental information:
- Lake, river, aquifer, or other source of the drinking water;
- A brief summary of the susceptibility to contamination of the local drinking water source,
based on the source water assessments that states are completing over the next five years;
- How to get a copy of the water system's complete source water assessment;
- The level (or range of levels) of any contaminant found in local drinking water, as well as
EPA's health-based standard (maximum contaminant level) for comparison;
- The likely source of that contaminant in the local drinking water supply;
- The potential health effects of any contaminant detected in violation of an EPA health
standard, and an accounting of the system's actions to restore safe drinking water;
- The water system's compliance with other drinking water-related rules;
- An educational statement for vulnerable populations about avoiding cryptosporidium;
- Educational information on nitrate, arsenic, or lead in areas where these contaminants are
detected above 50% of EPA's standard; and
- Phone numbers of additional sources of information, including the water system and
EPA's safe drinking water hotline.
' Right-to-Know Amendment to Clean Water Act in (1996) requires that all owners of systems serving at 25
residents or more or that have 15 service connections serving year round residents distribute such report.
It is worth noting that because the report simply summarizes information that the City must
collect to comply with the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act, no additional monitoring is required
to comply with this mandate. Additionally, since the City purchases water from the City of
Tulsa, Owasso's Water Quality Report uses much of the educational information and monitoring
data provided by the City of Tulsa. A copy of the City of Owasso 2008 Water Quality Report is
included as Attachment A.
REQUIRED ACTION:
The mandate further requires the City to mail or deliver a copy of the Water Quality Report to
each water customer, make an effort to deliver the report to non-bill-paying customers and
provide copies of the report upon request. The City must send a copy of the Water Quality
Report to the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) and submit a Certificate
of Completion and Distribution by October 1, 2008. The Certificate confirms that the
information contained in the report is correct and that all distribution requirements have been
met.
Public Works staff will include copies of the attached report in customer utility bills during the
months of June and July 2008. Additionally, a copy of the report will be available for viewing on
the City's website at www.cityofowasso.com and at the Public Works office located at 301 W.
2na Avenue.
RECOMMENDATION:
Upon completion of all distribution requirements, staff intends to place an action item on the July
15, 2008 OPWA agenda requesting Trustee approval of the Certificate of Completion and
Distribution of the Water Quality Report and authorization for the Chairman to execute such
certificate.

2008 ANNUAL WAFER QUALITY REPORT
OWASSO'S DRINKING WATER IS SAFE!!!
The City of Owasso is pleased to submit to you
the 2008 Annual Water Quality Report. We take
great pride in providing you, our customer, with
reliable and safe drinking water that meets all
Federal and State regulations. Again this year,
parameters in our water are well below the
maximum allowable levels in most instances.
We want to keep you informed about the
excellent quality of water and services delivered
to you over the past year. This report explains
where your drinking water comes from, and how
the water is treated, monitored and delivered.
The information included in this report reflects
the data collected from January 1 through
December 31, 2007. The included Water Quality
Tabulation shows that some contaminants were
found, however, not at levels to cause any
concern.
The Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) Safe Drinking Water Hotline
Drinking water, including bottled water,
can be expected to contain at least small
amounts of some contaminants. The presence of
these contaminants does not necessarily indicate
that water poses a health risk. More information
about contaminants and potential health effects
may be obtained by calling the Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA) Safe Drinking Water
Hotline (800-426-4791). In order to ensure that
tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes
regulations which limit the amount of certain
contaminants in water provided by public water
systems. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
regulations establish limits for contaminants in
bottled water, which provide protection for
public health, as well.
How to Contact Us:
For questions concerning your water utility,
please contact the Owasso Public Works
Department at 272-4959. Inquiries about this
report may be directed to Roger Stevens (Interim
Public Works Director).
For questions about your water bill, please

2008 Water Quality Report
Questions and Answers about Owasso's Drinking Water
Q. Where does Owasso's water come from? Q. What does the data mean?
A. Our water is purchased from the City of
Tulsa. The water is treated surface water
transported from three sources in
northeastern Oklahoma (Lake Oologah on the
Verdigris River, Lakes Spavinaw and Eucha
on Spavinaw Creek, and Lake Hudson on the
Neosho River). After the water reaches the
lakes, it travels to the Mohawk and A.B.
Jewell water treatment plants where it is
treated to remove substances that might
threaten public health.
Q. Which plant treats our drinking water?
A. Tulsa has avast underground network of
pipes that carry drinking water from two
treatment facilities to our faucets. Which
plant provides water to specific areas of the
city and surrounding areas depends on daily
changes in supply and demand. Generally,
customers in the north and west portions of
Tulsa (which includes Owasso) receive water
treated at the Mohawk Plant and those in the
south and east areas are served by the A.B.
Jewell Plant. Both plants serve the central
areas of Tulsa.
Q. Is Owasso's water safe to drink?
A. YES. The City of Owasso and the City of
Tulsa routinely monitor for irregularities in
your drinking water according to Federal and
State laws. In 2007, the City of Tulsa
analyzed more than 2,300 samples looking
for pollutants that might be dangerous to
your health, and substances that can make
the water taste or smell unpleasant. In
addition, the City of Owasso collected 300
samples throughout the distribution. The
adjacent table shows the results of our
monitoring for the period of January through
December 2007.
A. As you can see by the table, the drinking
water delivered to Owasso area homes and
businesses exceeds all federal requirements.
Although some contaminants were detected
in 2007, the EPA has determined that your
water is safe at these levels.
Q. What are contaminants?
A. The sources of drinking water (both tap and
bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams,
ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As
water travels over the surface of the land or
through the ground, it dissolves naturally
occurring minerals and, in some cases,
radioactive material, and can pick up
substances resulting from the presence of
animals or human activity. Contaminants
that may be present in water prior to
treatment include:
Microbial contaminants:
Come from sewage treatment plants, septic
systems, agricultural livestock operation
and wildlife.
Inorganic contaminants:
Naturally-occurring or result from urban
stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic
wastewater discharges, oil and gas
production and mining or farming.
Pesticides and herbicides:
Come from a variety of sources such as
agricultural urban stormwater runoff and
residential uses.
Chemical contaminants:
Include synthetic chemicals - are
byproducts of industrial processes and
petroleum production that can come from
gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and
septic systems.
Radioactive contaminants:
Naturally occurring substances or the
result of oil and gas production and
mining activities.
Important Health Information
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population.
Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who
have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some
elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about
drinking water from their health care providers. EPA and The Center for Disease Control (CDC)
guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other
microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).

*Definitions of Terms Found in the Table:
MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level): The highest level of a contaminant allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible
using the best available treatment technology and taking cost into consideration. MCLs are enforceable standards.
MCLG (Maximum Contaminant Level Goal): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health.
MCLGs allow for a margin of safety and are non-enforceable public health goals.
MRLD )Ma:rimum Residual Disinfeetaat Level): The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that the
addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
MRDLG Maximum Residual Disiafectaaat Level Goal): The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to
health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
TT (Treatment Technique): A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.
AL (Action Level): The concentration of a contaminant, which iC exceeded, triggers a treatment or other requirement which a water system must follow.
NTU )Nephelolometric Turbidity Unit): A measurement of the turbidity, or cloudiness, of the water. Turbidity has no health effects. However, turbidity
can interfere with disinfection and provides a medium for microbial growth. Turbidity may indicate the presence of disease-causing organisms. These
organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, and associated headaches.
mrem/yr )millirems per year): A measure of radiation absorbed by the body.
ppm (parts pea million): Comparable to 1 minute in two years.
ppb (parts per billion): Comparable [0 1 minute in 2,000 years,

MEMORANDUM
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: SCOTT CHAMBLESS
DEPUTY CHIEF OF POLICE
SUBJECT: SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION
ANIMAL CONTROL
DATE: May 8, 2008
BACKGROUND:
During the FY2008 budget preparation process for Animal Control, staff met with local
veterinarians for the purpose of determining equipment and supply needs for the proposed
surgery room at the Animal Shelter. During the course of these meetings, the veterinarians made
several recommendations for the surgery room. Based on these recommendations, staff requested
and was approved for $6,200 in order to purchase the necessary equipment. During FY2008,
staff appropriated the requested equipment and had it installed. As part of the final preparation
process for opening the surgery room, the veterinarians were asked to inspect the surgery room
for any final recommendations. Based on this final inspection the veterinarians recommended the
purchase of several items of equipment that were not initially requested. The additional
acquisition of the requested equipment resulted in a budget overage of $2,911.53.
The budget appropriations and overage referenced above were funded by the Animal
Sterilization Fund. In the past, when animals were adopted, the new owner would pay a $20.00
adoption fee with the understanding that they were required to have their animal spayed or
neutered. If the owner brought documentation back to show the animal had the required surgery,
the $20.00 was reimbursed. If the owner did not return, the monies were deposited into the
Animal Sterilization Fund. State Law restricts the use of these funds to promote animal
population control efforts or programs. Over a lengthy time period this fund grew to over
$13,000.
REQUEST:
The staff request is for Council to approve a supplemental appropriation to the Animal Control
budget to satisfy the budget overage of $2,911.53. In addition, staff requests a supplemental
appropriation of $4,636.15. These funds will be utilized to procure additional equipment/supplies
for the surgery room, finalize remodeling of the surgery room, and pay for veterinarian services
related to the spay and neutering of adopted animals. The combined total supplemental request is
for $7,547.68. Approval of this request will result in a zero balance in the Animal Sterilization
Fund,
FUNDING:
Funding for this request is derived from the Animal Sterilization Fund.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff intends to recommend that the City Council approve a supplemental appropriation to the
Animal Control budget in the amount of $7,547.68 at the May 20, 2008 Council meeting.
