Director’s Report:
Mr. Dunlap stated that there are several items on the City Council agenda for Thursday, March 16, 2000. He indicated that he would be attending the City Council meeting.
Ms. Matthews stated that there are two neighborhoods that have indicated that they would be coming before the TMAPC requesting rezoning.
Ms. Matthews reported that the South Maple Ridge Neighborhood Association is requesting a worksession for March 22 at 2:00 p.m. She stated that staff has requested background documentation, which has not been received at this time.
Ms. Matthews stated that the Oakview/Timberlane Neighborhood has indicated that they will be requesting RE zoning. This is a neighborhood that the TMAPC encouraged to come forward to request the rezoning after a couple of infill cases. She indicated that staff has already met with the neighborhood leader. Ms. Matthews concluded that it appears that the rezoning issue will be the subject of the April worksession and the request for rezoning in May.
Mr. Westervelt asked Ms. Matthews if the Historic Preservation item would be on the worksession schedule for next week. In response, Ms. Matthews stated that it is tentatively scheduled for next week. Ms. Matthews indicated that if the documentation is submitted in time, then the item would be on the March 22nd worksession. Mr. Westervelt stated that he will be out of town next week and would like to participate if it is not an inconvenience. Ms. Matthews stated that it is within the Chairman’s power to request a continuance.
Mr. Midget asked Ms. Matthews if staff has heard anything from the Irving Neighborhood. In response, Ms. Matthews stated that she has not heard anything from that neighborhood.

SUBDIVISIONS
LOT-SPLITS FOR DISCUSSION:
L-19027
– Sack & Associates (784) (PD-18)
(CD-8)
11015 East 73rd Street South
Staff Recommendation:
The applicant has applied to split Tract A of PUD 567 into two tracts called Tract A-1 and Tract A-2. The two proposed tracts meet the CO and PUD requirements. In lieu of a PUD amendment, the applicant has provided the building area square footage for each tract.
Staff believes this lot-split meets with the intent of the Zoning Code and would therefore recommend APPROVAL of the lot-split, with the allocation of floor area for each tract as follows:
Tract A-1 (2.57 acres) 65,000 SF (Tulsa Residence Inn)
Tract A-2 (1.83 acres) 45,000 SF (Tulsa Springhill Suites)
There were no interested parties wishing to speak.
TMAPC Comments:
Mr. Westervelt asked staff if the lot-split request is an acceptable process to reallocate the square footage rather than through an amendment to the PUD. In response, Mr. Beach answered affirmatively.
Mr. Westervelt asked if the lot-split is the best way to achieve the reallocation of the square footage. In response, Mr. Dunlap stated that in the past this was achieved by a minor amendment, but recently staff began writing recommendations that would allow this to be achieved either by lot-split or minor amendment.
Applicant’s Comments:
Ted Sack, 111 South Elgin, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74120, stated that the subject application is part of one development area, and normally the square footage is allocated for each individual lot as part of the platting process. In this particular case, a lot-split application is being used to achieve the square footage allocation. He indicated that as long as the square footage was allocated and an amendment to the deed-of-dedication is filed, Mr. Stump thought this would be similar to a subdivision plat being filed.
Mr. Sack stated that the there were two different motel units built on the property. Now his client would like to split this property in order to finance each project separately. The tracts must be split so that they will be independent tracts.
TMAPC Comments:
Mr. Jackere stated that the TMAPC could approve this application subject to Legal’s review of the legal requirements for this particular application.
TMAPC Action; 8 members present:
On MOTION of HORNER, the TMAPC voted 8-0-0 (Carnes, Harmon, Hill, Horner, Ledford, Midget, Pace, Westervelt "aye"; no "nays"; none ”abstaining"; Boyle, Collins, Jackson "absent") to APPROVE the lot-split for L-19027 subject to the following allocation of floor area for each tract: Tract A-1 (2.57 acres), 65,000 SF (Tulsa Residence Inn); Tract A-2 (1.83 acres) 45,000 SF (Tulsa Springhill Suites).

RESCIND TIE AGREEMENT ON LOT-SPLIT RECEIVING PRIOR APPROVAL:
L-18715 (PD-18) (CD-2)
South of Southeast Corner of East 73rd Street & South
Wheeling
Staff Recommendation:
On September 21, 1998, staff approved a lot-split that split Tract 4 into Lot 4 and Lot 5, with the condition that Lot 4 be tied to Tract A. At that time, the owner of Tract A was preparing to purchase Lot 4, which would have been land-locked without the tie agreement. The applicant had the deed stamped tying Lot 4 to Tract A.
Since that time, Tract A owner has not purchased Lot 4 and the present owner has another buyer who desires to purchase both Lot 4 and Lot 5. However, the approved lot-split restricts Lot 4 from being conveyed separately from Tract A.
The applicant is requesting that the Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission rescind the tie agreement of Lot 4 to Tract A, with the condition that Lot 4 be tied to Lot 5.
Staff has reviewed the applicant’s request, noting that currently Lot 4 and Tract A are under different ownership. Staff would therefore recommend APPROVAL of rescinding the tie agreement between Lot 4 and Tract A, with the condition that Lot 4 be tied to Lot 5.
There were no interested parties wishing to speak.
The applicant
indicated his agreement with staff’s recommendation.

Lot 4 be tied to Lot 5 as recommended by staff.

TMAPC Comments:
Mr. Westervelt expressed concerns with there being only one access point. In response, Mr. Beach stated that there are some topography challenges along East 106th Street, which creates some sight distance problems to the west. Mr. Beach indicated that there was brief discussion regarding the access point and the stub streets to the east and south. Mr. Beach stated that the County Engineer did not demand or require a second access be given. Mr. Beach commented that TAC did not feel that it was important that a second access be provided.
Applicant’s Comments:
Michael Denny, White Surveying, 9936 East 55th Place, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74146, stated that he had discussed a second access point to the northwest corner, which would be atop the hill. He explained that sight distance was an issue regarding the second access point to the northwest corner. He stated that there are plans to develop the property to the east in the very near future. With this in mind, the one access was proposed because the stub streets will go through when the property to the east is developed.
TMAPC Comments:
Mr. Ledford stated that the topography in this subject area makes it difficult to add a second point of access. In the alternative, the TMAPC could require that the applicant enlarge the entrance with a divided median so that there will be access on both sides of a divided median. If an accident blocks one side, one could still access around it and this has been done in the city before.

conditions and standard conditions; subject to access points being reviewed by the
