EDMOND — A large east Edmond housing addition will not come before the Edmond Planning Commission Tuesday.
Consideration of the preliminary plat of the Sun Country housing addition, located on the east side of Midwest Boulevard, south of Covell Road has been continued once again.
The project of Covell Development LLC contains 217 lots on 140 acres as presented in December. Most of the lots are 12,750 square feet with homes ranging from 2,200 to 4,000 square feet.
In other action, commissioners will look at a request from the Jan. 8 Planning Commission meeting for an Edmond Plan Amendment from “D-1” Restricted Commercial to “E-LU” Heavy Commercial Limited Use on the northwest corner of Rhode Island and Memorial Road.
Another scheduled item is a hearing on a rezoning from “A” Single Family to “E-2” Open Display Commercial, at 209 W. Second St., from Scott Wayne Weathers.
Commissioners also will consider a commercial site plan approval for Baker First Shopping Center, on the south side of West Edmond Road, west of Santa Fe, by Derringer Properties LLC.
And a hearing on the final plat of Walton’s Subdivision, which houses the Murphy’s Oil store on the east side of Santa Fe Avenue, south of Danforth, is on the agenda.
The Planning Commission will meet at 5:30 p.m. at the City Council Chambers, 20 S. Littler.
