Commissioners approve rezoning for 1-acre residential lot in Owasso, leaving remainder agricultural
Summary
The board approved a zoning change (case 2637) allowing a one-acre split to RS-40 and AR zoning on the remaining 15.76 acres; applicant Gregory Calhoun intends a single-family dwelling and livestock on the larger parcel.
The Rogers County Board of County Commissioners approved a zoning change for a 16.8-acre tract near North 190th East Avenue in Owasso, allowing the owner to split a one-acre parcel to be zoned RS-40 for residential use and to rezone the remaining approximately 15.7 acres to Agricultural-Residential (AR).
County planning staff described the application (case 2637) from applicant Gregory Calhoun. The proposal would permit a single-family house on the one-acre parcel and agricultural uses — specifically a few cattle — on the larger parcel; both parcels have road frontage and meet the minimum area requirements for the requested districts. The planning commission had recommended approval 4–0; no members of the public attended the planning meeting and no public speakers appeared at the county hearing.
The board opened the public hearing, heard the staff presentation and closed the hearing before moving to approval. A motion to approve the zoning change carried.
Why it matters: the decision allows the landowner to subdivide and place a residence on the one-acre lot while preserving agricultural use on the balance of the property.
Next steps: staff will complete the administrative processing for the rezoning and record changes on county land records.
