Pryor Creek P&Z recommends council approve Casey’s General Store rezoning, easement closure and final plat
Summary
The Pryor Creek Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend city council approve a zoning change, an easement closure and the final plat for a proposed Casey’s convenience store on property owned by the Wallace & Phyllis Baker Trust (Laurie Ann Reinard, trustee). A nearby resident raised concerns about noise and lighting.
The Pryor Creek Planning and Zoning Commission on June 13 voted to recommend that city council approve a zoning change, an easement closure and the final plat for a proposed Casey’s convenience store on property owned by the Wallace and Phyllis Baker Trust (Laurie Ann Reinard, trustee).
The action would change the parcel’s zoning from residential duplex (RD) to commercial automotive/recreation (CAR) to allow construction of a convenience store and associated site work. Planning commissioners also recommended closing an easement needed for the preliminary plat and approved the final plat to forward to council for final action.
The matter drew one public comment. Kathy Boggess, a resident of 212 North Adair, said the store would sit "right here beside" her house and asked what impacts — including lighting and noise — she should expect. "I don't know what to expect," Boggess said.
Commission members and staff told Boggess the Planning and Zoning board could hear arguments for or against the rezoning but could not resolve operational details such as lighting; those are handled by the city and by conditions on permits. The board also noted it had heard from a Casey’s representative at an earlier meeting.
The commission’s recorded recommendations were unanimous where votes were recorded. For the zoning recommendation the vote was recorded as: Mike Dunham — yes; Randy Gibbs — yes; Brandon Erdman — yes; Gina Alvis Watts — yes; Dennis Nance — yes. The recorded vote on the easement closing and the final plat also resulted in motions passing; recorded votes for those motions where shown were similarly affirmative.
Discussion on the record focused on process items: staff noted the applicant had submitted the preliminary and final plat materials and that legal clarifications in the agenda were typographical (references to item numbers). No substantive changes to the proposed site plan were discussed during the hearing.
The commission’s recommendation now moves to the city council for final decisions on the zoning change, easement closing and plat acceptance.
