Commission recommends RM-3 for planned 112-unit apartment complex near North Peoria BRT
Summary
The commission recommended rezoning a 6.34-acre site to RM-3 to allow a 112-unit multifamily development; staff cited transit access and the city housing assessment as supporting rationale.
The Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission voted 10-0 on July 1 to recommend approval of Z-7864, a rezoning application to RM-3 that would allow a 112-unit, two-story apartment development on a 6.34-acre parcel west of East 46th Street North and North Peoria Avenue.
Staff told the commission the site is appropriate for higher-density housing because it is adjacent to the Osage Prairie Trail and within walkable distance of the North Peoria BRT line; the Citywide Housing Assessment (March 2023) was cited as projecting a need for 12,900 units over the next decade. Applicant Brian Green confirmed the proposal: "the 112 unit two-story apartment buildings." Commissioners voted unanimously to recommend approval, with Mr. Bulmash making the motion and Mr. Humphrey seconding.
The record notes floodplain constraints elsewhere on the agenda but does not list floodplain impacts for this site beyond staff's environmental summary. The item will advance to the appropriate council body according to standard procedures.
