Council approves lot split, sidewalk waiver and rezoning for two single‑family lots in semi‑rural area
Summary
Council approved a lot split and a modification to waive sidewalk requirements for a proposed second single‑family house on a property in a semi‑rural area, and separately approved rezoning the lot from ARE to RE.
Broken Arrow City Council approved a lot split (Lot 1811‑2024), a modification to waive the sidewalk requirement along 90th Street fronting the parcel for construction of a single‑family detached house, and separately approved permanent rezoning of the property from ARE (Annex Residential Estate) to RE (Residential Estate).
Rocky Hinkle explained the site is in a semi‑rural area without existing sidewalks; staff recommended approval of a modification to section 4.1 of the subdivision code to waive sidewalks for the proposed construction. Planning Commission recommended approval 5‑0. No members of the public registered to speak on the item at council.
Council voted to approve both the sidewalk modification and rezoning on unanimous voice votes (4‑0). Staff noted that sidewalks would be required along the frontage if subsequent building permits are issued that trigger subdivision sidewalk obligations.
The approvals clear the way for the requested second single‑family detached house on the lot; the record shows the council accepted the planning commission recommendation and the staff analysis.
