OBOA -08 -13 — Request for a special exception to allow a church to locate on property
zoned AG (Agriculture), on properties located at 13918 and 14008 East 96th Street North.
Joe Ramey presented the item and Larissa reviewed the staff report. The applicant is
requesting a special exception to allow a church to locate on property zoned AG
(Agriculture). The property is undeveloped and contains approximately 11.5 acres of
land. The case was brought before the Board of Adjustment on November 17, 2008. The
item was tabled to facilitate discussion between abutting homeowners and future
developing team. Items of concern were drainage, location of the trash container,
parking, buffering and overall design. The architect has redesigned the structure to have
Mansard roofing and a mix of rock. Notification letters were mailed to property owners
within 300 feet of the property and the request was advertised in the newspaper. The staff
recommends approval of OBOA 08 -13. The following are comments from several
surrounding property owners:
James Hess — 9323 North 139 East Ave — He is not opposed and appreciates the
opportunity to meet with the church committee. He is enthusiastic about the proposed
detention pond. The property owners would like to see the voluntary setback changed to
a mandatory setback. He would prefer to have trees planted along the southern boundary
of the property instead of fencing. These abutting property owners have existing privacy
fences.
Mark Allen — 3116 Viewmont Ct, Edmond, OK — He explained that the fencing on the

• Fencing (5 ft) along the eastern boundary shall be constructed when single
