Neighbors warn of water, road and flooding risks as commission approves gated RE/PUD in south Bixby
Summary
After residents raised long-running concerns about water pressure, road conditions, flooding and wildlife habitat, the Tulsa County Planning Commission on Nov. 7 approved CZ-571 and PUD-874 to allow an RE/PUD gated-estate subdivision in south Bixby, with the applicant required to meet engineering and utility approvals before final plat.
The Tulsa County Planning Commission on Nov. 7 approved a rezoning and a planned-unit development request to allow an RE (residential estate) subdivision with a gated PUD after an extended hearing in which neighbors urged the commission to delay action until water, road and drainage issues were resolved.
Preston Bartley of Westwood Professional Services, the project engineer, described the proposal as "minimum, over a little over half-acre lots" to be served by septic and public water extensions. Bartley said the team met with the City of Bixby about water and that the plan includes looping a water extension into the development and using an existing pond for detention. "We will be proposing to extend water south to the development and loop it through the development as well," Bartley said.
