ATTEST: CITY OF OWASSO, OKLAHOMA Sherry Bishop, City Clerk Susan Kimball Mayor APPROVED AS TO FORM: Ronald D. Cates, City Attorney MEMORANDUM TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL CITY OF OWASSO FROM: DUANE CUTHBERTSON CITY PLANNER SUBJECT: ORDINANCE NO. 793 DATE: SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 BACKGROUND: At the August 17, 2004 meeting, the Owasso City Council approved a rezoning request from the Longford Group for 66.42 acres of property located 0.3 miles northwest of the intersection of North 129 East Avenue and East 96w Street North in Owasso, OK. The approval changed the zoning from a combination of RS -3 (Residential Single - Family District), RS -2 (Residential Single - Family District), and RE (Residential Estates District) to OM (Office Medium Intensity District). Attached is a copy of Ordinance No. 793 that formally adopts the City Council's action of August 17, 2004. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Council approval of Ordinance No. 793. ATTACHMENT: 1. Ordinance No. 793 2. OZ 04 -09 Staff report with a location map N-3 MEMORANDUM TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: DUANE CUTHBERTSON, CITY PLANNER SUBJECT: REZONING — (OZ 04 -09) OWASSO MEDICAL CAMPUS DATE: AUGUST 12, 2004 The City of Owasso has received a request from the Longford Group, Inc., applicant/owner, for the review and approval of a Planned Unit Development rezoning approximately 66.42 acres of property for OM (Office Medium Intensity) uses to enable the development of a full service hospital, associative medical office space and assisted living residential. In conjunction with the PUD application the property owner has requested the city rezone the property to OM. PRESENT ZONING: RS -3, RS -2 & RE REQUESTED ZONING: OM The subject property is located 0.3 miles northwest of the intersection of E. 961h St. N. and N. 129th E. Ave.; immediately north of the Owasso Market. It is currently vacant and zoned a combination of RS -3 and RS -2 with a 150' strip of RE zoning adjacent to Sherrill Acres. Sherrill Acres (large lot residential) occupies the property to the north and is zoned RE while the Owasso Market shopping center resides to the south and is zoned CS. Bailey Ranch Estates (single family residential) is located immediately west and zoned RS -3 and the property to the east is vacant but planned for office use and zoned CS and OL. There are no recent plans associated with the subject property. At one time the property was being planned for single family residential however those plans were abandoned by the property's owner. As stated above, the property owner has submitted a Planned Unit Development application for review in conjunction with the rezoning request. The PUD outlines the development of the property in accordance with the zoning requirements of an OM (Office Medium Intensity District). DEVELOPMENT PROCESS The first step in the development of a piece of property in Owasso is annexation. Annexation is the method whereby land located outside the city limits is made a part of the city. Property owners and land developers sometimes choose to have their property annexed into Owasso in order to receive Owasso municipal services, such as police protection, refuse collection, and sanitary sewer. The second step in the development of a piece of property in Owasso is rezoning. When a property is annexed into Owasso, by law it must come in classified for AG Agricultural use. In order to develop the property, the land must be zoned for particular kinds of uses, such as residential, office, commercial, or industrial. Rezoning decisions are made in accordance with the growth policy displayed in the Owasso Master Plan. One type of rezoning that a developer may choose to seek is a Planned Unit Development, or PUD. When a development proposes to exhibit a mixture of uses with specific regulations and standards unique to a particular tract of land, a PUD is often the preferred land use control mechanism. The third step in the development of a piece of property in Owasso is platting. A preliminary plat is required for any development that proposes to divide land into two or more lots. Preliminary plats illustrate the development concept for the property, and are often modified significantly after being reviewed by the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), and the Owasso Planning Commission. Sometimes, difficult development issues such as existing utility lines, wells, or easements are brought to light at the preliminary plat stage and must be remedied prior to development. After the preliminary plat has been reviewed by the City and various utility companies, construction plans for the development's infrastructure are typically submitted. These plans include specifications and drawings for stormwater drainage, streets and grading and erosion control, waterlines, stormwater detention, and wastewater lines. Often, approval is required of other agencies, such as the Department of Environmental Quality for wastewater collection and the US Army Corps of Engineers for properties that may be development sensitive. Once the property development proposal shows a division of lots that is acceptable to both the developer and the City of Owasso, a final plat application is submitted. A final plat illustrates the layout and dimension of lots included on the final plat, right -of -way widths, easements, and other physical characteristics that must be provided for review by the City. After obtaining approval from the TAC and Planning Commission, the final plat is considered by the City Council. If approved, the final plat is filed with the office of the County Clerk and governs all future development on that property. Another form of property division that can be considered in some cases is a lot split. Lot splits are minor subdivisions of property into three or fewer tracts, and do not provide for any new public streets. Typically, this is an appropriate option for a land owner who wishes to take large undeveloped parcels of land and divide it into two or three smaller tracts. The fourth step in the development of a piece of property in Owasso is the site plan. Site plans are reviewed by the TAC and Planning Commission. Issues such as building setbacks, parking, access, landscaping, and building footprint are presented in the site plan. Once a site plan is approved, the development is clear to apply for a building permit and to submit construction plans for the building's foundation, plumbing, electrical system, and HVAC. REZONING REVIEW PROCESS The rezoning process is initiated when a property owner submits an application requesting a change in a property's zoning designation. The property owner must submit an application indicating the current zoning designation and defining the requested zoning designation. The application should be accompanied by the zoning fee, an accurate legal description and map showing the property as well as a certified 300' radius report. Upon receipt of a complete application the staff will begin the review process by providing legal notice through the placement of an advertisement of the application in the newspaper, sending notice letters to property owners within 300' of the subject property and posting a sign on the property at the point closest to a public road. As staff is soliciting citizen input from the notification the application will receive an internal review. The internal review consists of answering three primary questions: 1. Is the requested zoning designation consistent with the Owasso 2010 Land Use Comprehensive Plan? 2. Is the requested zoning designation the highest and best land use classification for the subject property? 3. Is the proposed zoning designation consistent with surrounding development? Based on that criteria staff will formulate a recommendation for the request to forward to the Owasso Planning Commission. The Owasso Planning Commission will hold a public hearing to determine if the requested zoning change is appropriate and make a recommendation to forward to the Owasso City Council. The Owasso City Council will make the final determination whether or not to rezone the subject property to the requested classification or a less intense classification. If the zoning designation is changed by the City Council an ordinance officially declaring the rezoning of the property is written and adopted by the City Council. - LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS OF A REZONING REVIEW The decision to rezone a particular property in the City of Owasso should be based on three fundamental questions: 1. Is the requested zoning designation consistent with the Owasso 2010 Land Use Comprehensive Plan? 2. Is the requested zoning designation the highest and best land use classification for the subject property? 3. Is the proposed zoning designation consistent with surrounding development? It is important to note that particular site details such as drainage, streets, and utilities are appropriately discussed during the development review phases (plat and site plan) and not during a rezoning hearing. ZONING/DEVELOPNIENT LIlVIITATIONS If the application is approved, the subject property would be zoned OM (Office Medium Intensity District). According to the City of Owasso Zoning Code uses including offices, studios, hospitals and schools would be allowed on the subject property by right. Uses such as multi - family residential would be allowed on the subject property by Special Exception or as incorporated by a PUD. The intentions of the developer to construct a hospital, associative offices and assisted living residential units are consistent with the requested designation. CONFORMANCE TO MASTER PLAN DESIGNATION: The Owasso 2010 Land Use plan designates for the subject property for residential uses. The Master Plan draft that has been developed by the Master Plan update committee has the property planned for transitional land uses (offices and multi- family residential). It is anticipated that the Planning Commission and City Council will conduct a public hearing on the Master Plan draft in September. One of the stated goals of the Master Plan is to protect residential areas from commercial and industrial encroachment. Such encroachment is prevented by the development of transitional zones, ranging in type from duplex and multi - family to office districts. When the transitional zones are developed between commercial areas and single - family areas, conflicts are avoided between incompatible land uses. The property to the north and east of the subject site are established residential districts. The property to the south of the subject site is an intense commercial district. OM zoning for this property would provide a suitable transition between the commercial to the south and the residential to the north. Staff believes the request would be found consistent with the Owasso 2010 Land Use Master Plan. ANALYSIS Longford is requesting to rezone 66.42 acres of property to OM (Office Medium Intensity District) in order to develop a full service hospital complex. The proposal includes a hospital, associative medical support offices and a multi - family assisted living complex. As was stated above staff believes that this type of transitional zoning designation is appropriate between high and low intensity zoning districts. The office designation would provide a reasonable transition between the Owasso Market shopping center to the south and the residential subdivisions to the north. Staff believes that a transitional zoning designation such as office would prove more appropriate immediately behind the Owasso Market than the property's current designation of residential. The proposed use and requested designation of OM(Office Medium Intensity District) are compatible with the most recent development trends in the surrounding area. The subject property lies within the rapidly growing 960' St. N. and U.S. Hwy 169 activity node. The node has blossomed into a densely developed commercial center. An office complex indirectly accessible from 96`h St. N. and directly accessible from N. 129 1 Ave. behind the Owasso Market would be consistent with that growth trend. The property seems ideal for a Hospital as it is in the geographic center of Owasso and highly accessible from all directions. The property is also highly visible from U.S. Hwy 169. Staff is aware that the proposed development would abut residential property however the zoning code does provide for protection in the form of screening requirements and light pollution protection. In addition, there exists a large berm between Bailey Ranch Estates and the subject property that would provide further insulation between the two uses. The property owner has, in conjunction with the requested zoning change, applied for a Planned Unit Development (PUD) designation for the subject property. If the zoning request is approved a PUD would allow the city to apply any measures it deems necessary to further ease the transition from the proposed zoning designation of OM to the residential land uses to the north. Letters were mailed to surrounding property owners and a legal advertisement was published in the Owasso Reporter. Staff has received several phone calls from the public in regards to the request. Most of the concerns expressed by adjacent property owners were related to the anticipated relationship or conflict between residential and office uses. Many residents expressed concerns with additional traffic, light and noise associated with the proposed development. The developer set up a neighborhood meeting that was conducted on August 5, 2004 so that surrounding property owners would have an opportunity to express their concerns with the proposed development and allow the applicant an opportunity to address those concerns. Citizen input gathered from that meeting will be presented to the Planning Commission. Copies of both the letter to property owners and the legal advertisement are attached for your information and review. If the zoning request is approved, the land will still have to be platted in accordance with municipal regulations in order for development to occur. Significant development will be subject to a site plan review, at which time proposed and existing development will have to meet the City's requirements. Stormwater detention will be required as will adequate infrastructure including water and sewer and all other requirements such as sidewalks, appropriate access and appropriate signage. PLANNING COMMISSION At the August 9, 2004 meeting the Owasso Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of OZ 04 -09, to rezone the subject property to OM (Office Medium Intensity District). Staff recommends approval of OZ 04 -09 to change the zoning designation of the subject property to OM (Office Medium Intensity District). ATTACHMENTS 1. General Area Map 2. Rezoning Application 3.
