MEMORANDUM
TO: BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: LARISSA DARNABY
CITY PLANNER
SUBJECT: OBOA- 08 -13, A REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL EXCEPTION TO
ALLOW A CHURCH TO LOCATE ON A PROPERTY ZONED AG
(AGRICULTURE).
DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2008
BACKGROUND:
The City of Owasso has received an application for a special exception to allow a Church Facility
to be constructed on property zoned AG (Agriculture), located at 13918 and 14008 East 96"' Street
North.
PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS:
The property is located on the south side of East 96" Street North and about a half of a mile east
of North 129" East Avenue. The property is currently zoned AG (Agriculture) and is developed
with a single - family residential structure. The site is bordered to the south, east, and west by large
lot residential structures, and to the north lies East 96' Street North.
ANALYSIS:
The subject property, as stated, is undeveloped and contains approximately 11.5 acres of land. It
is the intent of Life Church to construct a one story church facility on the site.
The case was brought before the Owasso Board of Adjustment on November 17, 2008. At that
time the item was tabled to facilitate discussion between abutting homeowners and the future
developing team. Items of concern were drainage, location of the trash container, parking,
buffering, and the overall design of the structure. The architect has met with the homeowners
privately and redrawn elevations in an effort to make the development more compatible with
adjacent uses. The property is surrounded by single - family residences. The original design of the
building was modern, with arched rooflines and metal facades. The architect, after surveying the
area, redesigned the structure to have Mansard roofing and a mix of rock and EIFS building
materials.
The staff has evaluated the request, and finds that approval of the variance will not result in any
detrimental impact on the surrounding area. Staff does believe those abutting the property should
have significant input on the case, and the architect has show a desire to keep their interests in
mind.
Any development that occurs on the subject property must adhere to all subdivision, zoning and
engineering requirements including, but not limited to, paved streets and sidewalks. The
proposed development will require no significant expansion of utilities or infrastructure.
Staff published legal notice of the Special Exception Request in the Owasso Reporter and letters
of notification were mailed to property owners within a 300' radius.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff recommends approval of OBOA 08 -13
