📌 PLANNING COMMISSION THURSDAY: Proposed rezoning and conditional use permit for Islamic Center site

The Broken Arrow Planning Commission will hold a public hearing and consider a rezoning and conditional use request related to a proposed development for the Islamic Center of Tulsa.

🗓 Thursday, December 18
🕠 5:30 PM
📍 Broken Arrow City Hall Council Chambers

The request includes rezoning approximately 15 acres from Agricultural (AG) to Commercial General (CG), along with a Conditional Use Permit for a place of assembly. The property is located about ½ mile north of Tucson Street (121st St.), just east of Olive Avenue (129th E. Ave.) and south of the Creek Turnpike.

This development has been in the works for years. Plans for a mosque in Broken Arrow were first announced over a decade ago, and property records show that North American Islamic Trust Inc. purchased the 15-acre site in 2014.

The proposed development includes:
• A commercial retail center along Olive Avenue
• The Islamic Center centrally located on the site
• A retention pond and open space in the floodplain area

🔎 The full agenda and staff report are available on the city's website.

Neighbors, your voices were heard!!! Today the Planning Commission voted no to rezoning the land in front of Earnest Childers and Spring Creek schools to RS4. The highest density zoning possible for single family residence. This is a huge win for our kids and our community.

The developer will have an opportunity to appeal to the City Council if they choose to. With that in mind we need to stay vigilant and watch to see if they do but you were ALL instrumental in becoming the communities voice! Thank you!!!
