Time on topic (from transcript timestamps; approximate, includes side talk; shares are rounded):
- Thursday, October 15, 2026, Board of Adjustment, called to order at 1:30 p.m. with a quorum.
- Captions begin at 0:06 with chatter among arriving applicants; there is no captioned speech from about 0:24 to 0:54, and the meeting is called to order at 0:54.
- Captions end at adjournment, about 1:11:53. There was no recess.
- About a minute of silence while staff looked up rental history (about 15:35-17:05) is not counted.
- The board received the October 1 minutes, approved 2 variance/exception cases, approved 6 home-sharing special exceptions, continued 3 cases and saw 1 withdrawal.
Other business
0:54-3:25, 1:11:32-1:11:53
- Minutes of October 1 received. Two continuances read: BOA No. 16379 (accessory building regulations, Mourning Dove Drive area) to December 3, and BOA No. 16376 to November 5 (the agenda's "October 5" was corrected). Approved on a motion and second.
- No consent docket, no withdrawals from the floor, no committee reports, no citizens to be heard; adjourned.
BOA No. 16380 Kelley Avenue Volleyball Facility Parking Variance
3:25-9:22
- Box Law Group, for Kelly Sports, sought a parking variance to expand an existing building east onto dirt lot; expansion would require 66 more spaces.
- A member favored it but said the coming code update would yield about 617 spaces; with up to 17 courts the lot is a concern. All lot trees had died, so approval carries a condition of 13 canopy trees in the large islands and front. Sarah Welch of the Planning Department clarified which islands. Approved.
BOA No. 16381 Southeast 154th Street Mobile Home Medical Hardship
9:25-13:50
- A homeowner sought a medical-hardship mobile home as a temporary second dwelling and a variance from the behind-the-front-wall rule; the old pad and utilities remain and the septic and rocky ground leave no room behind the house.
- Special exception and variance approved together, 3-year hardship term.
BOA No. 16196 Northeast 15th Street Home Sharing
13:50-24:48
- 32 Group LLC's request ran into the board's April 16 instruction not to rent short term. The city's booking tool showed July and August bookings accepted; the applicant's representative said the listing was down except for edits to existing reservations.
- Continued to November 5 rather than risk denial; the site must stay offline.
Home-sharing special exception
24:54-28:29, 45:10-46:49, 1:08:51-1:11:27
- Three routine approvals with standard conditions (quiet hours 9 p.m.-8 a.m., no on-street parking, 1-year term): BOA No. 16340 (duplex unit, NW 2nd Street, 3 guests, 2 vehicles; a late renewal, so treated as new, with a tip to renew about 6 weeks early), BOA No. 16374 (duplex, NW 38th Street, 2 guests, 2 vehicles) and BOA No. 16378 (owner-occupied home, NW 30th Street, 6 guests, 3 vehicles).
BOA No. 16359 Northwest 28th Street Home Sharing
28:30-34:37
- Staff said the Historic Preservation Commission meeting had been canceled for lack of quorum and a special meeting was set for the next day; members discussed approving contingent on its recommendation.
- County records show three bedrooms while the application said four; with no remodel record the board capped guests at 7. Approved with quiet hours 9 p.m.-8 a.m. and no on-street parking.
BOA No. 16363 Wallace Avenue Home Sharing
34:40-40:45
- Hall Enterprises sought a new license for a three-bedroom house. A family member of the next-door neighbor asked for denial, citing stress, safety and a plat restriction on commercial use. A member said deed language that does not mention short-term lease cannot by itself be a reason for denial.
- Approved: quiet hours 8 p.m.-8 a.m., up to 4 vehicles, no on-street parking, 1 year.
BOA No. 16365 Southeast 78th Street Home Sharing
40:45-45:06
- A written protest and the neighborhood's covenants (revised September 30, 2025) require 30-day minimum rentals. Members said they would not override a private agreement and that 30-day-plus rentals need no special exception. The applicant withdrew; no action taken.
BOA No. 16375 Lightning Creek Drive Home Sharing
46:52-1:08:49
- Prior 2025 request denied; the owner then ran 30-day-plus leases. Two neighbors described turnover, street parking, a blocked mailbox, trash, noise and upkeep problems; staff confirmed three 30-day-plus rentals on the platform and pointed to the city's online home-sharing complaint tool.
- Approved: 7 guests, quiet hours 9 p.m.-8 a.m., up to 6 vehicles (3 garage, 3 driveway), no on-street parking, 1 year.

02:30And I wanted to make a note that in the
02:33in the agenda, it says it's deferred to

02:37to be November 5th.
02:39>> Yes, we made that correction.

02:43>> Okay. We have a motion and a second to

02:55Yeah, I'll cast your vote.
03:03All right. Those two items are
03:05continued.
03:07Um is there anyone in the public who
03:09wants to
03:12You can come up, David. It's okay, but
03:14is there anybody in the pub- in the
03:16audience who wants to continue an item
03:18or withdraw?
03:20Okay. None. There's no consent docket.
03:25So, now it's your turn.
03:27>> Item number two, case number 16380,
03:31request of Box Law Group on behalf of
03:32Kelly Sports for a variance to parking
03:35regulations located at 11100
03:38North Kelly Avenue.
03:40>> Good afternoon, David Box, 525 Northwest
03:4211th Street. Here on behalf of the
03:43applicant, this is uh a variance request
03:45as it relates to the parking
03:46requirement. This is an existing
03:49building that we seek to add on to yeah,
03:51to the east. It's that land that is
03:53currently uh dirt in the aerial. The
03:55expansion would require an additional 66
03:57spaces, uh which would be significantly
03:59over parked. What we have now is more
04:02than adequate for what we have plus what
04:04the expansion will allow. So, uh with
04:06that, happy to answer any questions. We
04:07would ask your approval.
04:09>> All right.
04:11And I don't have anybody signed up.
04:13No. Nobody signed up on this one. Does
04:16anyone want to address the board on this
04:18application?
04:20Okay. Questions, comments?
04:22>> Um I'll start. And I am in favor of
04:26granting the variance, but I wanted to
04:27go through kind of what I've been
04:30working on with the new code update and
04:33where this actually would have to be
04:35parked and the threshold, if you were to
04:38do the math in the new calculation
04:41in the new code update, this would have
04:46617
04:48parking spots for this use unit.
04:52And
04:54uh
04:56Luda multiplier.
04:58So, just a a an idea of
05:01of where it would have had to be parked
05:03if this was under the new code update
05:05and
05:06>> 600?
05:07>> 607
05:08>> [music]
05:08>> 17.
05:10Anyway,
05:11um
05:12with that being said, I did kind of look
05:14at it. This is going to be a volleyball
05:15facility.
05:17And
05:18there's a possibility of 17 courts in a
05:21tournament situation over there.
05:23And that could be 408 players.
05:26That's a lot of of parents and cars. And
05:30you're you're proposing 222 parking
05:32spots when this is completed, right?
05:34>> Yeah, what's there now?
05:35>> What's there now? No additions? So, just
05:37the 202?
05:37>> In the back, there there will be perhaps
05:39some additional, but
05:40not
05:41>> not the 66.
05:42>> Right. Right. We'll probably be able to
05:43reduce some of that on the back.
05:45>> Yep.
05:46>> So,
05:47something that I wanted to see if if the
05:49applicant would be willing to do is
05:51there's a whole bunch of islands within
05:54the parking lot
05:56and there's zero canopy trees left. They
05:59all died.
06:01Do you think you could put some canopy
06:03trees back into the islands?
06:05>> Uh into those three islands or are you
06:07talking about every island?
06:09>> Uh I'm talking about every island.
06:12>> Sure. There's only thing that's left is
06:13some shrubs.
06:14>> The rest all the trees that were there
06:16are all dead.
06:17>> Well, that is sad. Um sure.
06:20>> And it used to all be upland forest. I
06:21mean, there's
06:23just some reasoning behind the upland
06:25forest.
06:25>> Yeah, we'll we'll we'll plant some I
06:27would say what is that?
06:29Uh 10?
06:30>> Yeah, there's there's 10 there's a I
06:32think there's
06:34>> We will give you 13 trees, one per
06:36island.
06:37>> Okay.
06:38>> maples
06:39I don't want to get into an argument.
06:41>> Yeah,
06:41>> [laughter]
06:41>> I don't want to I don't want to get into
06:43species either. I just I want them to be
06:45canopy trees.
06:46>> All right, 13 canopy trees as a
06:48condition to the approval of the
06:49variance.
06:50>> Okay. I was going to ask what
06:51>> With 600
06:53would be the not man.
06:54>> 617 spots
06:55>> You guys are going to get worn out with
06:56parking variances.
06:59>> I did the math on the equation.
07:01>> lovely
07:02>> Oh,
07:02well
07:02>> Airbnb it'll be the Airbnb commission
07:05and the parking variances.
07:06>> So, yes, commercial commercial has no
07:10basically no limit on the parking or a
07:12zero, but there's a threshold and if
07:15you're above the threshold, then you
07:16have to do X and if you're below, you
07:18have to do Y. So, you can park it
07:20however you want and that's why I'm in
07:22agreement with
07:24the applicant on making the variance
07:28because they know what they need for to
07:30park this. I'm just saying if you did
07:32the math according to the new calculator
07:35of parking,
07:36that's where it would have been.
07:40And I thought it was very interesting
07:42cuz I'm on that committee and wanted to
07:43see what this was.
07:46>> Okay, so from Sarah Welch Planning
07:47Department, from staff's perspective or
07:49just for clarification in the future,
07:51are you referring to the islands in the
07:54front of the building? Because we do
07:55have islands sprinkled around the
07:56building.
07:57>> the parking lot. The large
07:59>> So, to to your point, Sarah, you're the
08:01large islands. I don't know how to
08:03describe this.
08:05Uh
08:06No.
08:11Yeah, not those.
08:13>> Yeah, the Well, there's 13 islands, but
08:15I I want to see them in the large
08:16islands. You You plant the 13 trees
08:18wherever, but the big islands get a
08:19tree.
08:21Those little ones in the middle don't
08:22need one, and then maybe put some in the
08:24front.
08:25>> Okay, 13 trees.
08:26>> Yeah, cuz I was going to ask for 40, so
08:2830 30
08:29>> 40 trees?
08:30>> Yeah.
08:30>> We're going to reforest
08:32the northeast part of Golden City. All
08:33right, 13 trees.
08:36We'll call you to the dedication and the
08:37ribbon cutting.
08:39>> [laughter]
08:43>> Okay.
08:44>> Any other questions, comments?
08:47Are we ready for a motion?
08:49>> Sarah Welch tree.
08:51The dedicated tree.
08:52>> You guys have anything else?
08:53>> I do.
08:54>> Anything else?
08:56Then
08:59I will make a motion to approve case
09:01number 16380
09:04on the basis that it meets the s-
09:07statutory requirement for the variance.
09:10>> I'll second.
09:12>> With the condition of the 13 trees.
09:14>> additional trees.
09:18>> Okay, we have a motion and a second.
09:19Cash to vote.
09:21>> Thank you.
09:22>> You're approved.

09:285th. Number four, case number 16381.
09:31It's an application for a special
09:33exception of Todd and Tara Wilkinson to

10:16where we want to put it is
10:20I'm sorry, I have
10:22neurological problems, so to look up is
10:24is bad, but um
10:26and I'm not a good artist, so but where
10:29we say house
10:32if you'll look up in the far right
10:33corner, there's an acre of land that's
10:36already had a double wide put on it.
10:38That's when we bought it back in '09, it
10:40had a double wide there.
10:41Um when we built our house, we sold the
10:44double wide and removed it, but because
10:47I have um recently become
10:51down with some medical issues, I need to
10:53have some help with me
10:55and he works at night, so I need someone
10:57there during the night time.
11:00Um but

11:04What is this Bovi Road?
11:06154th comes in, as you can tell a little
11:09bit, and then there's um
11:13I'm going to step back.
11:15Um
11:17Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
11:21Okay. Um
11:23but right where it looks like some
11:24sidewalk
11:26going to a um
11:29carport
11:30right in front of that where's where the
11:32old double wide was and there are still
11:35all the um
11:37piers and
11:38>> The runners, everything is still there.
11:39>> Everything's hooked up for the water,
11:41sewer, everything's there still.
11:44>> The power still runs over there from the
11:46from the
11:46>> Yeah, I pay two electric bills, separate
11:49electric accounts, one for that side,
11:51one for our side.
11:53Um but to have it put behind our house,
11:55the front wall,
11:56my sewer and I brought current pictures
11:58from this morning when it was raining
11:59and my sewer was spraying because it's
12:01the anaerobic.
12:03There's no room to put a house back
12:04behind my front wall.
12:09Unless you go out in the pasture, which
12:11as you can tell nothing grows there,
12:13it's all rock.
12:15Good old Oklahoma red rock.
12:19>> Okay.
12:20No one signed up to speak on this
12:22application. Does anyone want to address
12:25the board on this one?
12:28Okay. Questions, comments?
12:30From the board?
12:36>> I'll just state
12:38Uh
12:39I will just state that
12:41that you did
12:42turn in the the
12:44documentation
12:46for the special exception on the medical
12:48hardship. And then as far as the
12:51variance, I'm in agreement with the
12:53reasoning and the fact that the existing
12:56location already is ready for it.
13:00So, with that, I will make a motion to
13:03do the variance first.
13:06Not together.
13:07Or
13:09together?
13:10>> One application. I'm okay with that.

13:21variance as it
13:24relates to
13:28the
13:28it meets the criteria for the
13:30said exception and variance.
13:34>> And I'll second.

14:23Um
14:24I'm part of 32 Group.
14:28>> All right.
14:34I don't have anybody signed up on this
14:36one. Does anyone want to address the
14:38board on this application?
14:42Okay, questions, comments?
14:44>> No, I just want to go over your your
14:46application. It's a three-bedroom,
14:47one-bath home.
14:48>> Yes, sir.
14:50>> You are requesting a maximum number of
14:52guests to be six.
14:53>> Yes.
14:56>> I'd like to add quiet hours from 9:00
14:58p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
15:00>> I believe that's already on there, um
15:02but I'll double-check.
15:03>> And then
15:05uh maximum number of vehicles to be
15:07three.
15:08And then no on-street parking.
15:10>> Okay.
15:10>> And then the term would be 1 year.
15:12>> Okay.
15:16>> Is that a motion?
15:17>> Um
15:17>> It will be.
15:18>> It will be.
15:21>> I just I just want to verify that there
15:23hasn't been rentals.
15:25This I think this was one of the legacy
15:28when we were still enforcing that wait
15:30period. And so, as long as it hadn't
15:32been rentals, I'm okay
15:34with approving this one.
15:54>> So, what we're looking up is the rental
15:55history. Just put
15:56>> Give it again.
15:57>> We're just looking up the rental
15:58history.
15:59>> Okay. I know that we were here like
16:01April 16th 6 months ago or something.
16:03And then, I believe my wife uh took it
16:06down from there.
16:07And then, I think the whole thing was
16:09you had people that were already
16:12booked out cuz like I know we had
16:13somebody for like January of this year.
16:15Somebody after like the softball
16:17tournament already rebooked it for the
16:18next year. We kept those and we just
16:20didn't add any more.
17:05>> Were you booking 30 days or less? Were
17:08you booking less than 30 days?
17:10>> Um for the most part, what we've
17:11typically experienced is it's been
17:13people that have been longer. Like
17:14whenever we were up and going, it was a
17:16lot of people from OU Medical.
17:18Um
17:20it would be around 2 weeks. It would be
17:23most of them.
17:24Had other people that have asked to stay
17:26longer. Obviously, we try to keep it
17:27under that 30-day window.
17:29>> I think what we're concerned of is
17:31basically May, June, July, August,
17:34September.
17:35>> This past May, June, July, August,
17:36September, if we were booked out then?
17:38>> Yeah.
17:39>> No.
17:40There might have been people prior to us
17:42coming on the 6th that already booked
17:43like a week or whatever it is that
17:45already had surgery or whatever might
17:47take place that already signed up for
17:49it.
17:50But I think even if I go right now, I
17:51can't even book it.
17:52>> So, I have a We have a third-party tool
17:55that can see when it's been rented and
17:57booked and things. So, that's There were
18:00some bookings from back in March. So,
18:02before this was
18:04before you came before us, but it looks
18:06like it was booked in July and August
18:09also.
18:10>> really handle who like the booking of
18:12it. I just know what my wife sent me and
18:14showed me and sent me with in terms of
18:16turning it off
18:18for new people unless they've already
18:19prior
18:20booked it.
18:25>> Yeah, I mean, if this is in
18:27I mean, I might need more time to look
18:29at it then cuz
18:31it it appears on our third party that it
18:33could potentially be live right now. So,
18:37>> Yeah, and I'll tell you so,
18:39we have softened our approach on these.
18:41The main reason that I'm asking is
18:43because if
18:45it was off the record that this would be
18:47the requirement for granting it this
18:49time and so, I don't want to have
18:51something on record and then be going
18:52against that. And according to my notes
18:55from that April meeting,
18:58>> I have that too right here.
19:00>> Yeah, it was not to be uh
19:03rented as a short-term rental
19:05until
19:07uh you came back here. So,
19:09>> So, my mom was actually here and she
19:10gave me all of her notes and
19:12you are Marcus, and it says Marcus
19:14suggested, asked Marcus a number of
19:15times if we need to take it off. Marcus
19:17suggested not to, and then she made
19:19parentheses, take it off unless there
19:21are prior bookings.
19:23>> I don't think that would be the case.
19:24That's not something that we've
19:26established.
19:26>> Cuz that's what we were asking, that was
19:27a big thing.
19:29>> so your prior bookings that you already
19:30have booked, I don't I don't know where
19:32they all go, but definitely we would
19:34didn't want to see new bookings.
19:36>> Correct.
19:37>> And I think where they're getting maybe
19:39where
19:40they're getting a little bit stuck is
19:41that the software indicates that there
19:43were bookings made after that meeting.
19:46>> After that April
19:47>> like they're accepted, like not like
19:50like booked on
19:51um
19:51>> And you're saying if you go on right now
19:52it says it is
19:53>> No, no, no. Actually, I'm trying to
19:54click on it and it says the link's
19:56broken.
19:56>> Okay.
19:57>> Anyway,
19:58um but it like we
19:59>> live right now.
20:00>> No, I was like there's no way cuz I've
20:02>> Yeah, it just the link is broken.
20:03>> this, my wife was handling it, and then
20:05I stepped in to try to help whenever
20:06this all came in. So, I know for a fact
20:08that I took it down.
20:09>> When did you take it down?
20:10>> I took it down cuz my mom came, we went
20:13over all of this. I took it down, but
20:15what happened was I actually took it
20:16down, and then it took somebody's
20:17reservation off that was having surgery,
20:19so I put it back up so that they could
20:21finish what they had to cuz they needed
20:22to change their dates. If you take it
20:24down, you can't change your dates.
20:25And so, then I had to put it back up. I
20:27had to do that twice for people that
20:28were having surgery. One person had it,
20:30they were going to stay for a week. Now
20:31they only needed to stay for 4 days.
20:33>> Okay, so how long has it been down now?
20:37>> It went back up once in August to make a
20:38correction, and once in September to
20:40make a correction, I know of that, and
20:41then it came back down after the
20:42corrections were made.
20:44>> When did it go When did you take it down
20:45after the
20:46>> After after this, but like I said, I had
20:47to go in a couple of times
20:49>> day or that same day it was taken down?
20:50>> know if it was that night, the next
20:52morning, cuz
20:53>> But close after the April 16th.
20:55>> Yes, close after the April, and then we
20:56had to make prior adjustments. Like I
20:58think we have
20:59>> We'll continue.
21:00>> Like I said, we have I know that we
21:01already have a softball booking for the
21:03World Series uh College World Series.
21:06>> I'm going to recommend we continue just
21:08to verify that information.
21:09>> Okay.
21:09>> And if is
21:11if we can do that
21:13>> Well, I might not I might not be able
21:14to. So, we're using this third-party
21:15software. So, I I can tell where it was
21:18booked prior in April and or in March
21:20and then you came here in April. And
21:22then if he took it down and put it back
21:24up again, I don't know how that affects
21:26the booking date.
21:28I don't know how it affects the booking
21:29date in our software.
21:31Because it shows it was booked in July
21:33and August for for
21:35like like the the application or the
21:37booking was accepted.
21:38So, I don't really know if he took it
21:40down
21:41>> I get I get what you're saying. Does
21:42that does that affect it if they had to
21:44make an alteration or whatever it might
21:45be?
21:47>> Yeah, I don't know if the booking date
21:48is always when the client booked it or
21:50if you took it down and put it back up
21:52if it would reset. I don't know how that
21:54would I can't there's no way I could
21:55verify that.
21:58>> Okay.
21:59I get what you're saying.
22:01Trying to think of a way that I could.
22:05>> So, my recommendation then would just be
22:07to defer it
22:08>> I think it might be
22:08>> till then. November 5th is the only
22:09meeting we have in November.
22:12>> That would give us an opportunity to
22:15uh
22:16Yeah, and just
22:17clarification
22:17>> Right. And also just know it's another
22:1930 day they're close to 30 days that
22:20it's off.
22:22>> Okay.
22:23>> So, I need to come back again?
22:25>> Well,
22:27I mean you have to agree to the
22:28the continuance
22:30which is much better option than a
22:32denial today.
22:32>> Sure.
22:34>> So,
22:35and
22:36we just need to be
22:37>> be
22:38there would need to be no no bookings.
22:40So, the software is
22:42>> So,
22:43if I have somebody that wants to make an
22:44adjustment, can what do what do you guys
22:46need for me if you guys see that again?
22:47Do I not let them make an adjustment?
22:49>> So, are you saying you have you have a
22:51booking right now?
22:52>> I don't have a booking right now. But, I
22:54have somebody for like the only one that
22:55I can think of right now down the road I
22:56think we have someone for the softball
22:58college world series whenever that is.
23:00>> That's in a long time. You'll have a
23:01special exception by then.
23:03>> All right. Okay.
23:04So, then So, but I want to make sure
23:06we're all on the same page before
23:07leaving here. So, you don't currently
23:09[clears throat] have any bookings
23:10between now and the November meeting.
23:13>> Not that I'm aware of, no.
23:14No.
23:15>> Agreed.
23:16>> Okay. So, then
23:17>> It It hasn't been active for people to
23:19book it.
23:19>> Right.
23:20>> Like if I just like go in and make an
23:21adjustment, I guess that triggers it to
23:23be active again.
23:24>> But what I'm saying is there wouldn't be
23:26any need for an adjustment either
23:27because there's nothing between now and
23:30So, in the November meeting
23:32the software we shouldn't have any
23:34issues with the soft software showing
23:35any activity regardless of an update or
23:38a new booking because there's nothing to
23:39update. And there's there's the site's
23:41going to be down the entire
23:42>> And there's nothing else we can do cuz I
23:44don't live here. I live far away. This
23:46is I didn't want to send my mom again.
23:49>> So
23:49>> So, I flew in today.
23:52>> You can send your mom.
23:53>> Okay. Like we already paid I think
23:55>> If she lives here.
23:56>> Yeah, we already paid the
23:57$1,100 penalty.
23:58>> we'll we'll we'll remember this in the
24:00next 20 days. So
24:01>> Okay.
24:02>> And nobody signed up on this one. Is
24:05there anybody who wants to address the
24:07board on this application?
24:10>> Okay.

26:20it is.
26:21>> The whole house is?
26:22>> Yeah, because it's a duplex. One side is
26:24>> Okay. I just County records had it at
26:27three, so they must be counting both
26:28sides. You're just using one side, it's
26:30a duplex, but you own both sides.
26:32>> Yes.
26:34>> Okay.
26:35Um
26:38I'd like to see it just since it's a
26:40one-bedroom to be maximized as two
26:43guests instead of you had three.
26:46>> Okay.
26:46>> But I I'd rather see that it just a two
26:49two guest max.
26:50>> There's a pull-out couch in the living
26:52room.
26:54>> I think that's why

27:03that's I'm just one vote. You might get
27:04them on the on the additional.
27:06>> The other side is a golf simulator that
27:08I use, so there's nobody spending a
27:09night or anything.
27:11It's something that I I I personally
27:13use, so there's nobody sleeping on the
27:15other side.
27:18>> That makes a difference then.
27:20Uh

27:46>> Me too.
27:46>> across the wall. Yeah.

27:48>> So, we'll leave that at three.
27:50>> Okay.
27:57>> Anything else?
27:59>> Nope.
28:00>> Then I will make a motion to approve
28:03case number 16340

29:49if they HP decided to not approve it.
29:54Can we

30:05tomorrow.
30:07>> Yeah.
30:07>> Okay.
30:18>> So
30:19um
30:23I looked up in the county it says it's a
30:24three bed one bath.
30:26Is that correct?
30:28>> Um I
30:30I do think that's what it says. That's
30:32from like
30:33I don't know
30:3550 years ago or something but
30:38um
30:39yeah.
30:40>> Cuz you wrote down that it's a it's a
30:42four four bed or just number of rooms
30:44offered are four.
30:46>> Yeah.
30:47>> So,
30:49is it a four bedroom home?
30:50>> Yeah.
30:51>> One bath?
30:52>> Um no, there's more than one bath, yeah.
31:02>> Is it your home or are you managing it?
31:04>> It's fine.
31:08>> Was there a remodel at some point?
31:10>> Um
31:13not in the la- I mean
31:15that's been
31:16maybe 20 years or almost 20 years, yeah.
31:21>> But no remodel that you're aware of that
31:23would have converted to a four bedroom?
31:27>> Um I mean, I think
31:30the room has always been there. I mean,
31:31I don't know when they did it. I mean,
31:32it's like a
31:35por- you know, it's
31:37it looks like it has been an add-on, but
31:39that was again probably
31:42you know, 50 years ago or something.
31:45>> How long have you owned the home?
31:48>> Uh
31:49maybe 15 years or almost more than
31:53more than that, probably.
31:5820
31:592000
32:008. Yeah, 2015 years.
32:15>> What what
32:17What level of occupancy did we grant you
32:19on a previous application?
32:23>> I think it was for eight.
32:59>> I'd like to make a revision to the quiet
33:01hours, 9:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
33:03>> You have You have 10 to
33:05>> 10 to 8.
33:14And you have a four-car maximum, and I
33:17would like to add that no on-street
33:18parking to that.
33:22Now, we're just trying to find out
33:25if we can find it anywhere to say a
33:27four-bedroom.
33:27>> Yeah, I I and I don't have anything it I
33:30don't have any documentation to show
33:31four-bedroom. If you have it,
33:33I'm happy to continue to bring it back
33:35to give you that, but without it, it'd
33:37be capped at seven for me.
33:40>> I'm okay capping it. That's fine for
33:43now, and I you know, maybe I could get
33:44with the county and get it revised or
33:47something.
33:48>> Okay.
33:49The And seven would would be where I
33:51would be also on that.

36:31Uh I can tell you that she is uh very
36:34upset about the prospect of a revolving
36:37door of strangers

36:41causing her a great deal of stress

37:54do it either, but so
37:56we've been directed as
38:00for the notes on the deed that if it
38:02doesn't actually say short-term
38:06lease that we cannot use that per se as
38:12reason for denial.
38:14>> I understand.
38:15>> So, the business or commercial
38:18they consider the short-term
38:20special exception to be a residential
38:22use.
38:24>> Yes, sir. I understand.
38:29>> Is there anyone else who wants to
38:31address the board on this one?
38:35>> And I will say that Mr. Isles got
38:37multiple
38:38He manages multiple special exceptions
38:41within the city. And he does a very good
38:43job of managing it.
38:45Get with him, have his contact

39:00no on-street parking etc. similar
39:03restrictions to what you were
39:05um laying out for some of the other
39:07properties.
39:08>> Okay.
39:14>> So
39:15do give him your information. That would
39:16help. Um
39:18And then on the application you did say
39:20it was a three-bedroom, two-bath.
39:22>> Yes, yes, sir.
39:23>> And the maximum number of guests you
39:24were seeking was six.
39:26>> Yep.
39:26Or I can do the plus one or anything.
39:28>> And I would like to do
39:31uh
39:32to revise the quiet hours 9:00 p.m. to
39:338:00 a.m.
39:35>> I think it's 8:00 p.m. now.
39:37I changed it today.
39:38>> Oh, okay.
39:39>> I always get docked with that. So I
39:40double-checked it.
39:41>> 8:00 p.m.

40:00but and then no on-street parking.
40:02>> Right.
40:09>> Good.
40:10>> Mhm.
40:10>> Then I will make a motion to approve
40:12case number 16 363
40:15on the basis that it meets the statutory
40:17requirement for the special exception
40:20with the revision of quiet hours from
40:218:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
40:25No on-street parking.
40:27And the term's 1 year.
40:30>> I'll second.
40:31>> Okay, we have a motion and a second.
40:37Cast your votes.
40:40You're approved.
40:45>> Item number nine, case number 16365.
40:49It's an application by Jeremy Hall to
40:50allow home sharing at 59 17 Southeast
40:5478th Street.
40:56>> It's the same setup, just different
40:57address. Three bedroom, two bath, two in
40:59the garage.
41:03>> No one signed up to speak on this one.
41:07Is there anyone who wants to address the
41:09board on this application?
41:12Okay.
41:15From the board?
41:16>> So, on this one they
41:19you did have a protester.
41:21A written protest. Did you see this?
41:22>> I did not.
41:24>> You're going to find this one more
41:25interesting.
41:26So, the CC&Rs on this do say
41:31that there has to be a minimum of 30-day
41:34rental period.
41:36>> With the neighborhood?
41:37Okay.
41:39That's what I'm doing now, so.
41:41>> Okay. You don't need a special exception
41:43for that.
41:43>> Right. So, we don't need a license for
41:45this. We just do a 30-day stay.
41:47>> Correct.
41:49>> Say that again.
41:50>> You don't need a special exception if
41:51you're doing 30-day plus.
41:53>> Well, I don't think you need the license
41:55either.
41:56>> You do need a license.
41:57>> You need a license?
41:59Even for 30-day stays?
42:01>> Anyways, Jeremy, you can get with them
42:03and they'll they'll get that. But
42:05because this neighborhood does have it
42:07written in the CC&Rs
42:10that I'm I mean, just for me, but I'm
42:12going to go with that.
42:14>> No, that's fine.
42:19>> And they'll get you a copy of that.
42:22>> I trust you.
42:43>> Good.
42:43>> Yeah, ready for a motion.
42:45>> What If he withdraws, he gets his money
42:47back, right?
42:49Or a portion of it?
42:50>> technically, no, for the Board of
42:51Adjustment. If it's been noticed, you
42:52don't. So, if there's a exception here
42:55where
42:56we didn't Nobody realized that it wasn't
42:58needed, we could we could request a
43:00refund.
43:02But are we sure we don't need it? So,
43:04you're not going to home share less than
43:0530 days.
43:06>> Yeah, we'll just stick with 30 days
43:07days. I have no problem with that. It's
43:08been booked with that anyway, so.
43:12>> Okay, so if you're According to our
43:14ordinance, if you're more than 30 days,
43:16you're not home sharing or short-term
43:17rental. So, you don't need to come
43:19through us, and you don't need really
43:20even need the license, so
43:23we just can't I can't guarantee on the
43:24spot you're going to get your money
43:25back.
43:26>> [laughter]
43:30>> So, it's worth withdrawing it?
43:31>> So, we'll withdraw it.
43:33Right?
43:33>> If you're absolutely sure, you're going
43:35to then go ahead and withdraw.
43:36>> I mean, if I can't get less than 30 days
43:38days, there's no point.
43:39>> I mean, you can see if you can.
43:43>> Yeah, no, I wasn't aware of the neighbor
43:44thing, so I don't really have any
43:46you know, if I had it really up to me.
43:49I would like less than 30, obviously,
43:50but if that's the rules, that's the
43:52rules.
43:53>> Yeah, for me, once once this actually uh
43:57updated and recorded in the the CCRs, I
44:01I'm going to to support that, simply
44:03because it's a private agreement among
44:04neighbors. I don't think that the city
44:06has any business um
44:08getting in between uh private
44:10contractual agreements.
44:11>> Yeah, that's fine.
44:14>> I I would agree with that and note that
44:18it says that the revised documents
44:21were enacted September 30th 2025. So,
44:25>> It was before I applied, yes.
44:26>> Yeah, it was
44:28It's in there. It's very clear.
44:30>> I'm with that.
44:32So, let's let's go ahead and withdraw
44:33mine then, I guess.
44:35We'll go with that.
44:40>> Okay.
44:40>> Good.
44:42So, I will make a motion to withdraw
44:44case number 16365.
44:47>> Wait, do we don't We don't He would just
44:50>> Okay.
44:52So, no motion then.
44:52>> I withdraw.
44:54>> [laughter]
44:55>> And then we don't take any action.
44:56>> Okay.
44:57>> Yeah.
44:58>> We're good?

47:09seeking a special exception for home

47:14on behalf of Kelly Fasterling. Um this
47:17application was uh I brought this last
47:21year August 21st. Um it was denied as we
47:25had used it as a short-term rental
47:27prior.
47:28Um at that time you told us uh it would
47:30need to be 30-day minimum for a year, um
47:32which we immediately um put it as that.
47:36Um so I applied for it again um August
47:3921st of this year.
47:41Um since that time it was denied, uh
47:43we've had three
47:45um tenants stay there um
47:48starting August 27th, 2025 to April
47:5130th, 2026.
47:53Uh 246 nights.

47:5989 nights.
48:01And then it's currently being uh rented
48:03September 16th through November 17th for
48:0562 nights. Um those are the only people
48:08who have been there. I know there was a
48:09complaint that said there's people
48:10coming and going. Um
48:13that's uh
48:15They might have been coming and going,
48:16but they were part of these rentals that
48:18were uh
48:19midterm. Um
48:22that's that's really all I have right
48:24now.
48:26>> Okay.
48:27I've got one signed up.
48:29Mark
48:30Cortel?
48:33>> Well, how many tenants did you say spent

48:36>> Oh oh wait, address the board. Give us

48:43>> Okay.
48:43>> 10324
48:45Lightning Creek Drive.
48:46>> Okay.
48:47>> And may I ask you one question for
48:49clarification? Okay.
48:51Uh
48:52what did you understand the number of
48:54tenants that spent the year at that
48:57residence?
48:58Three?
48:59>> Three is what I heard.
48:59>> Well, I will not call a man
49:03untruthful,
49:05but I've been four families that spent
49:08there
49:09and a few short-term,
49:11about a week, week and a half
49:14during this past year.
49:16And there is somebody that just left uh
49:18I believe they left last night or just
49:21this morning.
49:25So,
49:26there has been violations. There has
49:29been
49:30on-street parking. We had one family
49:33that was there because they were waiting
49:35to have find another residence.
49:38They had a pickup truck. Mom had the
49:41company car, her private car, son had a
49:44pickup truck, and another son had a
49:46pickup truck. Nine times out of 10, the
49:49pickup trucks were in the street.
49:51We had one family that was there on
49:54Memorial Day weekend. They had
49:57a family get-together.
50:00I counted six cars at that time. So, I
50:02didn't count how many people were in
50:04there.
50:05>> So, let let me just say this to you. He
50:07was operating on long-term lease and we
50:09have no purview over that. He can have
50:11as many cars as he wanted and he can
50:13have as many people as he wanted.
50:14>> Okay. Okay.
50:17I was unclear. I still thought he was
50:19supposed to stay
50:21the long-term lease. Short-term lease is
50:231 week, 10 days?
50:25>> 1 day.
50:27Or so, any anything between 1 day and
50:30less than 30 days.
50:31>> Oh, there's been less than 30 days.
50:34People but like I said, there's been
50:35more than three tenants there in the
50:37last
50:38>> You were saying there was four.
50:40>> Pardon?
50:40>> You were saying there was four tenants.
50:42>> Four, five, six.
50:45>> [snorts]
50:46>> I remember one clearly cuz he had one
50:48neat boxer that he parked in the garage.
50:51When he fired that baby up, it just
50:53rumbled.
50:59>> We'll we'll get the rental history from
51:01our
51:02We'll look at the rental history from
51:03the last year with with the software
51:05that we have the capability.
51:07>> I'm
51:08I'm strictly against it because I do
51:10come suffer from
51:12post-traumatic stress from my service
51:14and the revolving door syndrome
51:18puts my dogs
51:20on nerve. When my dogs start barking at
51:22night, I get up to check my perimeter.
51:24And with the one family with the teenage
51:27sons,
51:28they were in and out at all god-given
51:30hours. All right?
51:32He changed oil in the street.
51:34I walked across the street and I was a
51:36little rough, I'll admit. I said, "Son,
51:38we do not do this in the street. We do
51:41it
51:43in our driveway or in our garage. We
51:45don't work on our cars in the street.
51:48Well, he was from the back hill
51:49someplace. Well, it didn't matter where
51:51he worked at.
51:52Now, there's been some good people
51:54there, some people I've talked to.
51:56One of the last groups we had were five
51:59men that worked for an alarm company.
52:01I see hello, goodbye, but still again,
52:05they were parking their stuff on the
52:07street.
52:08There was five people in there, but I
52:10don't understand with this that you've
52:12clarified it that he was on a long-term
52:15lease, you can rent it for wherever you
52:17want it.
52:18Uh no short-term lease.
52:21>> Yeah, and so today he's asking for the
52:23short-term lease and a special
52:24exception. And with said special
52:27exception, I will put
52:29parameters
52:31like you've heard all day on that
52:32special exception.
52:34So, if he violates those, then
52:37you'll you'll have to come back and and
52:40within a year when he reapplies.
52:42>> That was your last year.
52:43>> Yeah. So, and and like I said, if he
52:46doesn't follow the rules, then
52:49but right now he's not under those
52:51rules.
52:51>> I I don't know how I'd actually call
52:52that
52:53because I like people, but if they're
52:55not the kind of people I want to live in
52:57next door, I don't want them next to me.
52:59I've got grandkids in and out. There's
53:00plenty of kids up and down the street
53:02that live in the area. My house is
53:04directly across the street from the
53:06playground. There are kids there all the
53:07time
53:08playing.
53:11>> Mhm. Do you have his contact
53:12information?
53:14Do you have his contact information?
53:16>> I I don't have his contact information,
53:18but I do have the telephone number of
53:19his company.
53:21>> Okay. Well, again, he's he operates a
53:23lot of short-term leases in in Oklahoma
53:25City. And he knows the parameters and
53:29and he he does a good job elsewhere, so.
53:35Yeah, come on up.
53:40>> Okay.
53:40>> Oh, step up to the podium to the back.
53:42>> My name is Dona Andrews. I live in the
53:50>> 103 16 Lightning Creek Drive.
53:57I am to the
53:59south of this house.
54:02Trash cans are parked up on the side of
54:04the house.
54:07The people who have had them there,
54:09they have no respect
54:11for property.
54:13We have picking our trash out of our
54:15yard, out of my flower bed.
54:19I've had pickup trucks
54:22block my mailbox.
54:24I've gone over and asked them to not
54:27block my mailbox. I said, "Okay." Well,
54:31the next day, they're right back in
54:32front of the mailbox.
54:34I've got pictures where they had six
54:36cars, four in the street, two in the
54:38driveway. And Well, no, they're They had
54:41two in the garage, two in the driveway,
54:42and three or four in the street.
54:45I mean,
54:47our HOA prohibits overnight parking in
54:50the street.
54:52It prohibits working on cars
54:56in
54:57view of
54:59anybody
55:01anywhere. I mean, you can't repair cars
55:04in your in your driveway. You're
55:06supposed to use your garage where nobody
55:08can see you. You can't work on your cars
55:10in the street.
55:12That is in our bylaws of our HOA.
55:16And to me,
55:19they have not been responsible enough to
55:21instruct their renters that there is an
55:24HOA that they need to follow
55:27if they're going to rent it to them.
55:30They need to make sure they're going to
55:31follow the HOA rules.
55:33The rest of us have to follow them.
55:36They should have to follow them.
55:38But they had no concern for the rules.
55:41They're They don't have no quiet time
55:44because they'll be out there working on
55:46cars and making noise. My bedroom is
55:49right next to that Oh, excuse me. That
55:51house. So, I can hear the noise and the
55:55They're partying in the backyard at 1:00
55:58or 2:00 in the morning.
56:01So,
56:02I can't
56:04can't sleep.
56:05So, it's just It's very disturbing.
56:08>> And let me just say say this, if if we
56:10grant him a special exception today and
56:12we put the parameters on them that we
56:15put on most of these special exceptions,
56:18that if he operates outside of those
56:20special those parameters, you call
56:23>> I called the police.
56:25>> They will
56:26There was no So, it's a long-term lease.
56:29There were no rules.
56:31Now there will be rules if he gets a
56:33special exception. If he doesn't follow
56:35through, he breaks the rules, they'll
56:37write him a ticket, we will be notified,
56:39and he won't get a special exception.
56:41So, possibly having a special exception
56:44and a short-term lease will make this a
56:45better property for you.
56:48And he's hearing every single thing you
56:50said, and I know that he'll take care of
56:52it and vet these people as best he can.
56:55>> I mean, cuz we have little kids across
56:56the street. I have a granddaughter
56:58that's 6 years old.
57:00I want to know who's living next door to
57:02me, and that I don't have to worry if my
57:05little granddaughter wants to ride her
57:06bike
57:07in the front up and down the sidewalk.
57:10And there's other kids on the street.
57:13There's
57:14six families on the street that have
57:15kids that ride their bikes and play up
57:18and down the sidewalk and over at the
57:20park.
57:22The tenants they have had in there have
57:24had no respect for the speed limit.
57:28My husband has had to stop them several
57:30times to tell them to slow down. It's
57:33not a racetrack.
57:36And they still
57:38They don't
57:39These people
57:41They're
57:42Some of the
57:43people they've had in there that were
57:45short-term, they worked like for
57:48Walmart, they come in, put shelves up,
57:51and they're gone.
57:52So, they're only there two or three.
57:54They may have rented it They may say
57:56they rented it for 30 days, they weren't
57:58there 30 days.
58:04And
58:05there had been more than I think he said
58:08three They did three rentals. There had
58:10been more than three changes in that
58:12house in the last year.
58:17So,
58:18and I sent an email and I sent pictures
58:22of the trash,
58:24the
58:26their maintenance or whatever they are
58:28that come in and clean after after
58:30somebody leaves. They have
58:33I don't know what they do. They didn't
58:35do anything with the trash and I'm in
58:37the trash can. It stayed overflowing for
58:406 weeks
58:42till I think Mark had finally put it
58:44out.
58:47So, I mean, and all I can do is get the
58:50trash in my yard.
58:52And we have to consistently pick it up.
58:54And it's frustrating.
58:58So,
58:59>> One other side comment, I don't know
59:01last year you said you were going to go
59:02out and look at the property to see if
59:04it's been maintained.
59:07It has not been maintained. You got
59:09weeds growing in the flower beds. You've
59:12got weeds growing where the lawn should
59:14be and dead grass.
59:16Uh
59:17>> There isn't a grass
59:18>> And last year he said it was maintained
59:20and if you went out and you saw that it
59:23has not been maintained.
59:25Uh the most rain it's water it's gotten
59:27in in the last year has probably been
59:29the last 2 days.
59:31Any other day we got a sprinkle. But
59:34it's never been watered or or taken care
59:36of.
59:38So, that's just making the neighborhood
59:39look like trash, which
59:42I've always taken pride in my property
59:44and my yard. I'm 71 years old and I
59:46still mow my yard.
59:49And
59:50still fix my own vehicles, too, in my
59:52garage, not in the street.
59:54>> Sounds like a lot of HOA
59:57questions and and concerns, and I would
1:00:01definitely suggest you work through that
1:00:03for those individuals.
1:00:04>> Yes.
1:00:05>> There is supposed to be a tree
1:00:08in the
1:00:09one tree, at least
1:00:11>> Mhm.
1:00:11>> Everybody has to pay supposed to have
1:00:13more than one tree, but we
1:00:14everybody's just got one tree.
1:00:17>> It died.
1:00:18But, you know,
1:00:19>> Yeah, there's but it's never been
1:00:20replaced.
1:00:21>> It died before
1:00:23>> Trash cans.
1:00:24>> You're not supposed to be able to see
1:00:26the trash cans. You're supposed to
1:00:27either be kept in your garage or behind
1:00:28a fence.
1:00:29But there's are in full view. You can
1:00:32see them in the picture.
1:00:34In the picture I sent, where the trash
1:00:36is just overflowing, and that's where
1:00:39they leave it.
1:00:39>> When was that picture taken? That must
1:00:41have been color proof.
1:00:42>> When that we didn't take that, somebody
1:00:44else took that. That's a long time ago,
1:00:46because I got stuff that don't look like
1:00:48that.
1:00:48>> I didn't know.
1:00:49>> [laughter]
1:00:50>> That's like to color touch somebody
1:00:52touch it.
1:00:53Touched up that picture.
1:00:54>> Yeah.
1:00:55And the Google Earth picture, they're on
1:00:56there and and Zillow, they're also on
1:00:58there, so
1:00:59like I said, the
1:01:01the managers hearing every single thing
1:01:03you guys had to say. And
1:01:06I'm hoping that the if if granted a
1:01:09short-term exception, that it'll be
1:01:11operated in a lot better fashion than it
1:01:13was operated as a long-term lease.
1:01:18And that's all I can I I hope for.
1:01:21And I will rely on the neighbors and you
1:01:24guys to come back in in a year
1:01:27or or follow
1:01:28up with with the
1:01:30>> You know, I have my pictures and
1:01:32>> Mhm.
1:01:32>> everything to prove that they haven't
1:01:36>> Yeah, that helps. It goes goes a long
1:01:38ways.
1:01:39>> [snorts]
1:01:40>> I mean
1:01:42what is this house going to be limited
1:01:43to as far as cars?
1:01:49>> Um if he agrees, three.
1:01:52>> Three?
1:01:52>> No on-street parking in three.
1:01:55>> Okay.
1:01:57And they Nobody's never said Nobody's
1:01:59ever had three cars. They've always had
1:02:01more.
1:02:02Five, six cars.
1:02:03>> Yep.
1:02:04>> And they park
1:02:05>> Like I said, hopefully it'll be operated
1:02:06much better as a special exception in a
1:02:08short-term lease.
1:02:09>> I just want to quit making parking by my
1:02:11by my mailbox. I can't get my mail.
1:02:14And you know, I've told told them and
1:02:16they just
1:02:17>> Yeah, and and you also said that they
1:02:18your HOA doesn't allow off-street
1:02:20parking, right?
1:02:21>> Pardon?
1:02:22>> Your HOA doesn't allow it.
1:02:23>> HOA says no no no overnight parking in
1:02:27the street.
1:02:28>> So
1:02:28>> Oh, shoot.
1:02:29>> Just work with them.
1:02:31Right?
1:02:31>> Uh they park them overnight. It
1:02:33>> No, I'm just saying work with the HOA,
1:02:36get that taken care of through them, let
1:02:37them fine them, do whatever they need to
1:02:39do, and I mean you got to do something.
1:02:42>> Uh
1:02:43our HOA doesn't
1:02:46enforce
1:02:47the the deal. So, I can complain about
1:02:51it, but they don't
1:02:52>> Run for president.
1:02:53>> Yeah.
1:02:54I've told the president.
1:02:57And
1:02:58I've told him we needed to get this in
1:02:59our bylaws, and he said, "Well, you take
1:03:01care of it."
1:03:02I said,
1:03:03"This isn't my job."
1:03:06>> One question, how many violations does
1:03:08it take to have their special
1:03:10approval withdrawn?
1:03:12>> One. I mean, it's up to us.
1:03:15I mean
1:03:15so.
1:03:16>> You know,
1:03:17let's say they've got
1:03:18>> I mean it'd be it'd be it'd be a
1:03:20renewal, right? For us it'd just be a
1:03:22renewal. They they wouldn't pull the
1:03:24special exception.
1:03:25>> So do you not pull it during the year?
1:03:27>> I mean it'd have to be very egregious
1:03:29for something like that to actually have
1:03:31happened and that would be done by a
1:03:32district judge.
1:03:33>> That's understandable. Okay.
1:03:35>> We're we're just the panel that would
1:03:36renew.
1:03:37>> Okay. So if this short-term rental goes
1:03:40through
1:03:45they can just rent it for a party for 20
1:03:47people.
1:03:48>> No.
1:03:49Maximum number of people will be in this
1:03:51house would be
1:03:53it's a four-bedroom home. For me it'd be
1:03:54nine people. Any more than nine it'd be
1:03:57outside the purview or the
1:03:59the guardrails that we put on it.
1:04:04>> There may be nine people see
1:04:06we had somebody live there that had
1:04:08family.
1:04:09>> Nine people maximum.
1:04:10>> That came over to visit. So they took up
1:04:14the whole street and the garage and you
1:04:16know
1:04:18>> Pictures. That's all I can do tell you.
1:04:21Pictures and documentation.
1:04:23What he'd done in the last year
1:04:25long-term leases we can't control.
1:04:28>> but so I believe me I will document it.
1:04:32I I will document it all of it if it's
1:04:36not done right.
1:04:38>> Okay.
1:04:39>> Thank you.
1:04:45>> Are are you able to verify um what I
1:04:48said earlier?
1:04:49>> Um I am. I see three different rentals
1:04:53on the platform that were all 30 days
1:04:55and Airbnb it's currently advertised for
1:04:57a 30-day plus.
1:04:59I was going to tell our neighbors too
1:05:01there's a we have I don't know if this
1:05:03is I think it's new from last year but

1:05:10um www.okc.gov/str
1:05:15like short-term rental and you can log
1:05:17as a very specific home sharing
1:05:19complaint anytime a day.
1:05:25>> Yes, so we'll, you know, definitely
1:05:27abide by no street parking.
1:05:29We'll We typically use a trash valet
1:05:32service. I don't have to check if we
1:05:34have not been doing it on this one, but
1:05:35we will that they'll move Make sure the
1:05:37trash cans are moved in the backyard or
1:05:40in the garage.
1:05:42You know, obviously we'll follow all
1:05:43these rules, but also HOA rules.
1:05:47So we'll We'll look into that and make
1:05:49sure,
1:05:50you know, it's a good year for the
1:05:52neighborhood and, you know, we want to
1:05:53be a good partner
1:05:54with the neighborhood. So

1:06:36on the application is a It's four
1:06:38bedroom home, two bath.
1:06:42Right?
1:06:42>> Yeah, yes, sir.
1:06:45>> Has it always been a four bedroom home?
1:06:46Cuz when I looked up the county, it was
1:06:48a three three bed. So
1:06:51>> Yeah, I think we had the same thing come
1:06:54up last year. I mean we have four beds
1:06:56in the in the house. One
1:06:58you know, might have been used for
1:07:00office in the past. I don't know, but we
1:07:02have it set up as four bedroom.
1:07:05>> It's not a security issue.
1:07:06And
1:07:08Zillow's got a four, too. So.
1:07:11>> Is I'll ask the same thing I asked
1:07:13previously. Do you have a a remodel
1:07:15record of converting it from a
1:07:16three-bedroom to a four-bedroom?
1:07:18>> Um no, I don't.
1:07:20>> Would you be opposed to reducing the max
1:07:22occupancy down to seven?
1:07:24>> No.
1:07:24>> Okay, then that is fine then.
1:07:26>> Yeah, that makes it a lot easier.
1:07:31>> Um
1:07:34>> Quiet hours 9:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. Good
1:07:36with that?
1:07:37>> Yes.
1:07:38>> And so on the on the
1:07:40maximum number of vehicles, I know it's
1:07:42a three-car garage. Is it empty? So they
1:07:45can put three in it?
1:07:46>> Mhm.
1:07:47>> So I will say you can have up to six
1:07:49cars, but you have to have three in the
1:07:51garage and three in the drive.
1:07:53>> Okay, yeah. Well yeah,
1:07:55um

1:07:57parking.
