City Council / Public Works Authority — August 10, 2026
The council unanimously rejected changing the Covell Crossing development's rules to allow a Club Car Wash. Residents and the Planning Commission opposed it, and council members cited noise, water demand, and keeping faith with the original development plan.
Capital Improvement Projects Advisory Board Amended Agenda — July 21, 2026
Staff proposed a balanced approach: rebuild Covell/Coltrane in year two of the eight-year plan (construction in about three years), with Covell/Santa Fe about five years later. Members pressed for a comprehensive strategic plan covering all city assets before committing, and staff said a full draft eight-year plan is coming.
Planning Commission — May 19, 2026
Three separate cases — a hotel, a car wash and the West Fork PUD — cluster around the busy Covell and Sooner Road area. Residents there may see changes in traffic, access points and nearby land uses depending on how these move forward.
Planning Commission — April 21, 2026
Several big projects cluster along Covell Road — The Oaks at Covell subdivision, Texas Roadhouse with shops, and The Legacy at Covell. Together they signal continued growth on Edmond's northeast side, bringing new homes, dining, and retail. Residents should watch how access spacing and traffic are handled.

Planning Commission — January 6, 2026
Three separate cases touch the Covell/Sooner area: a Chick-fil-A site plan, the Shoppes at Covell rezoning, and nearby office and park projects. This cluster could reshape one of Edmond's busiest growth corridors.
