Bristow council adopts zoning change lowering industrial-acreage threshold to 20 acres
Summary
At a special meeting Aug. 11, 2025, the Bristow City Council unanimously adopted Ordinance No. 203-081125 amending Chapter 22 (Specific Use Permit Process), reducing the acreage threshold for certain industrial uses from 40 acres to 20 acres and modifying height requirements.
The Bristow City Council unanimously adopted Ordinance No. 203-081125 on Aug. 11, 2025, amending Chapter 22 (Planning, Zoning and Development), Article XI, the Specific Use Permit process. The ordinance revisions change the Specific Use List (Section 22-602) and alter height requirements in Section 22-603; the ordinance was recorded as No. 203-081125.
Councilmember Judd Johns moved to adopt the ordinance, and Frank Groom seconded the motion; the roll call vote recorded Church, Deshazo, Fletcher, Green, Groom, Johns and Witty as voting Aye. City Attorney Beth Anne Childs told the council the Planning & Zoning Board recommended approval and called out two edits: replacing "Industrial Uses in Excess of 40 Acres" with "Industrial Uses in Excess of 20 Acres" in Section 22-602, and amending height provisions in Section 22-603. The council subsequently voted to declare an emergency for the ordinance; that motion also passed on a unanimous roll call.
The ordinance includes standard repealer and severability language. The transcript does not specify an effective date beyond the emergency declaration vote; implementation details and any required administrative steps were not specified at the meeting.
