Local council pauses zoning decision for new living center in District 3
The Wagoner County Board of County Commissioners held a special meeting on June 30, 2025, to address concerns regarding a property operating as a therapeutic center in District 3. The meeting focused on a letter sent to the property owner, which raised questions about zoning violations and the facility's operations.

Commissioners discussed the property's address, located at 17089 South 308 East Avenue, and clarified that it has been in operation for 18 months. The facility currently houses 17 residents, with plans for expansion that were initiated by an inquiry from a gentleman associated with the property. However, details about the expansion and the property's compliance with zoning regulations remain unclear.

During the meeting, it was noted that the initial contact with the property owner was prompted by an anonymous tip and subsequent communications regarding potential additional living quarters. The commissioners expressed the need for further investigation into the facility's operations before making any decisions.

Commissioner James proposed a motion to pause any actions related to the property until more information could be gathered, allowing the facility time to ensure compliance and protect the interests of all parties involved. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Randy, and both commissioners voted in favor of the pause, emphasizing the importance of thorough investigation before proceeding.

The meeting concluded with a consensus that further discussions would be necessary once additional information is available, ensuring that all stakeholders are adequately informed and protected.
