PRELIMINARY PLAT:

Fossil Ridge (1824)                              (PD-14) (County)

Location: East of the northeast corner of East 156th Street North and North Mingo Road

 

Staff Recommendation:

This plat consists of 17 lots in one block and one reserve on 15.05 acres. The property will be developed for single-family residential uses. It’s surrounded by similar, sparsely developed AG, AG-R, and RE zoned properties with large residential lots. The northwesternmost part of the property is in floodplain.

 

The following were discussed January 3, 2002 at the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting:

 

1.

Zoning:

 

Staff: This property was rezoned in October this year from AG to RE. All but four of the proposed lots meet the RE bulk and area requirements. The two most southerly will be too small after the required right-of-way dedication. Lots 11 and 12 are too narrow. Building line should be shown along 156th Street. Lot lines need to be shifted to provide for minimum lot widths on all lots.

2.

Streets/access:

 

Staff:  East 156th Street North is a secondary arterial on the Major Street and Highway Plan. Minimum right-of-way is 100 feet. Dedication should be made to make a total of 50’ from centerline. Dimension internal street width. Cul-de-sac exceeds 500’ maximum. Need to discuss whether stubs should be provided to the east and west.

 

County Engineer: Street will be named 102nd East Avenue; show the area to be dedicated and label properly; include 30’ radius returns at intersection in dedication; show access limits on 156th Street; stubs not needed to either side based on current and anticipated development; based on the low intensity of this development, over-length cul-de-sac is acceptable.

 

Applicant: No comments.

3.

Sewer:

 

Staff: Septic is proposed. ODEQ will approve with minimum lot size of ½ acre with public water supply.

 

ODEQ: No comments.

Applicant:  Roy D. Johnsen

(PD-26) (CD-8)

Location:

Northwest corner of East 101st Street South and South Yale Avenue

 

Staff Recommendation for Z-6844:

 

RELEVANT ZONING HISTORY:

Z-6510/PUD-540  December 1995:  All concurred in approval of a request to rezone a 19.5-acre tract located in the northwest corner of East 97th Street and South Yale Avenue north of the subject property, from AG to RS-1 and PUD 540.  The Planned Unit Development was approved for a maximum of 46 single-family dwellings on private streets.

 

Z-6498/PUD-538 July 1995:  A request to rezone a five-acre tract located on the northeast corner of East 101st Street South and South Yale Avenue from RM-2 and RM-0 to CS and RM-2 was approved subject to modifications within the CS development area.  The mixed-use development included commercial, office and single-family uses.

 

Z-6451/PUD-516 October 1994:  All concurred in approval of a request to rezone a ten-acre tract located on the southeast corner of East 101st Street and South Yale Avenue from AG to CS/RS-4/PUD to allow a mixed use development.

 

BOA-16438 November 1994:  The Board of Adjustment approved a request for a special exception to allow a children’s day care center in an existing church facility.  The request was approved per site plan.

 

Z-6405/PUD-503 June 1993:  All concurred in approval of a request to rezone a 4.4-acre tract located north of the subject property and fronting on South Yale and East 98th Street South, from AG to RS-1/PUD.

 

AREA DESCRIPTION:

SITE ANALYSIS:  The subject property is approximately 2.50 gross acres and is located on the northwest corner of East 101st Street and South Yale Avenue.  The property is sloping, partially wooded, contains a single-family dwelling and is zoned AG.

The Major Street Plan designates East 101st Street South and South Yale Avenue as secondary arterial streets.  The City of Tulsa Traffic Counts 1998 – 1999, indicates 12,400 trips per day on East 101st Street South at the intersection of South Yale Avenue.

 

UTILITIES:  The subject tract has municipal water and sewer. 

 

SURROUNDING AREA:  The tract is abutted on the north by church uses zoned AG and on the west by single-family uses zoned RS-1.  There is a Jenks elementary school zoned RS-3/RM-0/RM-2 to the south of the tract across 101st Street.  To the east, across Yale Avenue are commercial uses (Shops of Seville) zoned OL/CS/PUD-538.  F&M Bank is located at the southeast corner of 101st Street and Yale Avenue zoned OL/CS/PUD-516.

 

RELATIONSHIP TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:

The District 26 Plan, a part of the Comprehensive Plan for the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, designates the subject area as Low/Medium Intensity – No Specific Land Use.  According to the Zoning Matrix, the requested OL may be found in accord with the Low Intensity and is in accord with the Medium Intensity.  The requested CS is not in accord with the Low Intensity and is in accord with the Medium Intensity.

 

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Based on the District 26 Plan and the policy that the plan designation may allow up to a medium intensity development on the site, and on existing development and trends in the area, staff can support the requested OL and CS zoning and therefore recommends APPROVAL of OL and CS for Z-6844, provided that the accompanying PUD-658 or some version thereof is also recommended for approval.

The PUD consists of 1.74 net acres located at the northwest corner of East 101st Street and South Yale Avenue.  The subject tract has 280 feet of frontage on Yale Avenue and 272 feet of frontage on 101st Street.

 

The subject tract is zoned AG.  Concurrently, an application (Z-6844) has been filed to rezone the tract to OL and CS.  The tract is abutted on the north by church uses zoned AG and on the west by single-family uses zoned RS-1.  There is a Jenks elementary school zoned RS-3/RM-0/RM-2 to the south of the tract across 101st Street.  To the east, across Yale Avenue are commercial uses (Shops of Seville) zoned OL/CS/PUD-538.  F&M Bank is located at the southeast corner of 101st Street and Yale Avenue zoned OL/CS/PUD-516.
