Broken Arrow City Council - May 19, 2026

350 new homes near 121st and Olive have neighbors worried about a two-lane Tucson Street that already backs up, and about crowded elementary schools. City engineers say the road is at about half its capacity and widening is in design, and school officials reportedly aren't telling the city they're full.

Broken Arrow City Council - May 5, 2026

A 90-acre PUD and rezone from Commercial Heavy to single-family compact would put up to 350 homes north of Tucson Street. Neighbors worry traffic will outpace the planned Tucson Street widening approved in the bond issue, so the hearing was pushed to May 19.

Planning_Commision_04232026_WEB - Apr 29, 2026

A 90-acre tract would convert from planned commercial to up to 350 homes, with trails, ponds and a pool. Tucson Street widening is funded by the April 2026 Go Bond, and a resident opposed citing two-lane 121st Street congestion, emergency access, and school capacity.

MeetingApr 23, 2026

Planning Commission - Apr 23, 2026

A 350-home subdivision replaces the commercial portion of PUD 307 on 90 acres near Tucson Street. The developer agreed to dedicate turnpike frontage road right-of-way, protect billboards, and cut density, while voters' recent Go Bond funding will widen Tucson Street.

MeetingMar 26, 2026

Planning Commission - Mar 26, 2026

A large 90-acre project pitched for a shift from heavy commercial to compact single-family residential isn't ready — the commission in February asked for a more blended design, and updated plans won't arrive until the April 23 meeting.

MeetingFeb 26, 2026

Planning Commission - Feb 26, 2026

A 90.33-acre flip from commercial-heavy to compact single-family with up to 415 homes north of Tucson Street. The plan ties every final plat to Tucson Street widening funding from the April bond — but commissioners want more detail on the required service road, billboards, and lot quality before saying yes.
