\"The biggest thing that we were excited is the batch of amendments we had to the zoning code, those were approved second reading last week. So those will be in effect probably in about a month or so,\" Susan Miller said. She said the council had \"a lot of cases\" recently and that several zoning and comp-plan amendments were approved.

Miller did not provide detailed provisions of the code amendments during the commission meeting; she relayed the council action to the commission as part of the director’s update. Commissioners did not take formal action on the code amendments at this meeting; the planning commission discussion focused on agenda items and hearing procedures that followed the report.

Commissioners may address implementation or specific provisions in future meetings once ordinances and implementing materials are published by city staff.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Tulsa - Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission 09-17-2025","oneSentenceSummary","Tulsa planning staff told the commission that a recent batch of zoning code amendments won second-reading approval at City Council and are expected to take effect in about a month.","taxTitle","Tulsa, Tulsa County, Oklahoma","taxId",2682,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6471110,"Commission approves accelerated building-permit release for Memorial Drive development",103,341000,444000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5778477-3396dba6304b128a39351a915c68ddd2&start=341&end=444","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5778477-3396dba6304b128a39351a915c68ddd2/thumbnail_341000.jpg","/articles/6471110/Tulsa/Tulsa-County/Oklahoma/Commission-approves-accelerated-building-permit-release-for-Memorial-Drive-development","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6471110-e4b2027219964c5d4fe683631f742031/orig.mp4?Expires=1775075355&Signature=bCovcLDtB-P0HHX2FpqFWqka1fvYHvpIFeBPwVUk9pqUYYdztS4ofzi4OcPzpja4l9U8nuthkVpfx3ZZXKy1ey5pDNFFVs1sOxUSs5-l21wBi35OCCRKJBHDMZWMAORlq4rUun12lBOR-x2HkVeoJab51C-aCP8VbiESNBxD0OG9QHiooHzi114UUjmLCS6ZImaLZD6wrGLkgdejchOf49oztopvIgllyFKGY6y4rT5YHUnQmomEvs8F~HRVMw4fgfrgvgj1bnllbZQPN006mMgCdE3ptQdO4ZCoarmip2T4o62csp3idnOyLdLqzmTQAVy13m7WWyi5PR1xY2GFWg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission on Sept. 17 approved an accelerated release of a building permit that allows construction permits to be issued for phase 1 of a mixed-use development at the northwest corner of North Memorial Drive and East Pine Street before a final plat is filed.

Austin, a city planning staff member, said the original preliminary plat covered property down to Memorial and the applicant submitted final plats in phases. \"The request is to allow building permits north of Reading Street\" for what staff described as office-warehouse buildings in phase 1, Austin said. Staff recommended approval for the accelerated release \"tied to the improvements shown in your site plan, limited to phase 1.\" He also said phase 2 will include additional infrastructure and is planned to include a hotel, retail and restaurants.

When asked whether the applicant agreed with the staff recommendation, the applicant said, \"We are in review.\" Commissioner Craddock moved to approve the item per staff recommendation, and Commissioner Chiville seconded. The commission approved the motion by voice vote; the transcript records the chair asking, \"All those in favor? Opposed?\" and then the item was approved.

Staff characterized the accelerated release as limited to the improvements shown for phase 1; the commission did not record a roll-call vote or a recorded tally in the public transcript. No members of the public spoke on the item during the hearing.

The action allows the developer to proceed with construction for phase 1 earlier than final platting for later phases, subject to the conditions tied to the site plan shown to the commission.","The commission approved an accelerated release allowing building permits for phase 1 (office/warehouse) at a mixed-use site on North Memorial Drive before final platting, with staff conditioning approval on the improvements shown in the phase 1 site plan.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6471115,"Commission approves rezoning of West Tulsa property from RS-3 to AGR",121,215000,336000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5778477-3396dba6304b128a39351a915c68ddd2&start=215&end=336","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5778477-3396dba6304b128a39351a915c68ddd2/thumbnail_215000.jpg","/articles/6471115/Tulsa/Tulsa-County/Oklahoma/Commission-approves-rezoning-of-West-Tulsa-property-from-RS-3-to-AGR","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6471115-7ff5a24c9c56671a7499099a404fc3ea/orig.mp4?Expires=1775075355&Signature=Uiuh~lv~69FqIFqodiPq2c4ENyaQAFE9HZ9Rv9smHEJrXj5jElKh4pL7IRkP3QQo1qjMBnL0vQblsXITIfUl93tjw9yxAowNEuDZBNaXZ0whYT~4tkZ7vKULvGzMcGftx9LaAjXvika9eoa6IA3bzaIY5GNEJpQzsSSHLQlGY5ODvjO0OVzeLM4Fcy49sqzhq3gH~ATwWa-lcrI7z32eUg0C9sVRZw36WDXBRg~FJdk-1P1o~g41YfRbJ9V-tro7uvIg7P-m2NwjNJqgZHixVYolSt4JCXUM-rQ5NeLr6A803XahVbcxTBL3iuPOR2rOhch8mvAegI-CxCtc3CtpNQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission on Sept. 17 approved a rezoning request (Case C7829) to change a more-than-2-acre property in West Tulsa from RS-3 (single-family residential) to AGR (agricultural).

Nathan, a city planning staff member, told the commission that the property is at the northwest corner of West 70 Eighth Street South and South 20 Sixth West Avenue and lies within an area where AGR is common. \"The lot is over 2 acres in size, so it meets and exceeds all of the requirements of the AGR district,\" Nathan said, and staff recommended approval.

The change reflects a voluntary rezoning opportunity city council offered in 2020 for properties in the district; Nathan said the current owner was not the owner at that time and therefore missed that earlier opportunity. Nathan also said the lot’s size and frontage mean it could be subdivided into two 1-acre tracts, because the minimum AGR lot size is 1 acre, and that single-family housing would remain a permitted use.

Commissioner Humphrey moved to approve the request \"as presented by staff,\" and Commissioner Shiller seconded. The commission approved the motion by voice vote; the record indicates the chair asked, \"All those in favor? Opposed,\" and the item was approved.

No members of the public spoke on the rezoning request during the hearing, and the applicant indicated they were \"in review\" when asked whether they agreed with the staff recommendation.

The rezoning aligns the parcel’s zoning with the surrounding small-area plan and prevailing AGR zoning in that part of West Tulsa; staff said the lot’s size and the small-area plan supported the change. The commission did not record a roll-call vote in the public transcript.

The commission moved on to the next agenda item after approving the rezoning.","The Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission approved a rezoning request (Case C7829) to change a more-than-2-acre lot in West Tulsa from RS-3 to AGR to align with surrounding uses; staff said the lot could be split into two 1-acre parcels and single-family housing would remain permitted.","actionData","errors"]
