Owasso council approves Corrigan Glen plat vacation and abandons PUD to allow single-family replat

Owasso planning staff presented a paired request to vacate the final plat for Corrigan Glen and to abandon OPUD 23-06 so the owner can move from a previously approved multifamily plan to single-family lots.

Alexa Beamer told the council the subject property is approximately 2.5 acres at 10094 North 97th East Avenue and had previously been approved for three quadplexes under an OPUD document filed as PUD 23-06. The applicant proposes to void that approval by vacating the final plat and abandoning the PUD so the parcel can be replatted into single-family lots.

Beamer said planning commission recommended approval 5–0 and staff reviewed the application against the city—s subdivision regulations and Oklahoma State statutes (title 11, chapter 1, part 1, article 42 for the plat vacation and article 43 for the PUD abandonment) and concluded the requests met legal criteria. "Approval of the plat vacation would effectively void the original final plat, eliminating all associated easements, dedications, access limits, and the lot lines," Beamer explained.

City staff noted water and sewer service for the property is provided by the City of Owasso. Councilors had brief procedural questions about whether a new PUD would be required for single-family development; staff replied that single-family uses are allowed by right in the RNX base zoning and the applicant would instead proceed with a replat.

A councilor moved to approve the plat vacation and the companion PUD abandonment; both motions were seconded and the council voted to adopt the actions as recommended by staff and the planning commission.

The approvals remove the prior multifamily development standards and clear the way for a future replat and single-family subdivision application, which would return to staff and the city for plat-recording procedures.
