17 issues in zoning with medium priority
Side yard setback variance at 1405 Leawood Drive
A property owner at 1405 Leawood Drive wants permission to build closer to the side property line than the standard setback allows. Neighbors in the area may want to weigh in during the public hearing.
Sooner Road rezoning continued
A 2.5-acre rezone on Sooner Road was delayed two weeks so the developer can meet with the Clayton Pond and Tuscany HOAs about buffers, noise, and drainage.
Zoning change near Sooner Road and 2nd Street
A parcel east of Sooner Road, north of East 2nd Street, was proposed to change from agricultural zoning to retail commercial, opening the door to commercial development in that corridor.
Central Plaza PUD rezoning at 930 E 2nd Street
A proposal to rezone a commercial property at 930 E 2nd Street from E-1 Retail General Commercial to a planned unit development. The hearing was scheduled for August 4; the outcome is not on record.
101 W Thatcher PUD rezoning
A request to rezone 101 W Thatcher from single-family to a planned unit development could change what can be built just west of the railroad on the north side of Thatcher.
Infill duplex PUDs near downtown
Two small infill parcels got PUD zoning for duplexes — one at 101 W Thatcher that's 31 square feet under the normal duplex threshold, and Hirn Corner at 230 E Lincoln with up to eight units. Both reflect Edmond's push for varied housing types near downtown and the university area.
The Stables at Hallmark PUD continued
The Sun Properties rezoning on South Bryant was pushed to May 11, so neighbors will get another chance to weigh in next month.
Charter 'freeholder' candidate qualification
The council formally declared that the charter's requirement that candidates own property (be a "freeholder") is against the law and shouldn't disqualify anyone running for mayor or council — and will look at changing the charter.
PUD rezonings draw mayoral opposition
Two rezonings — Lexi's Cottage on 4th Street and Colon Holdings at 2nd and University — passed 4-1 with Mayor Nash opposed. Residents questioned why developers use PUDs instead of standard zoning, and one neighbor asked for alley improvements. The debate may shape how future rezoning requests are handled.
