The Bartlesville City Council on Oct. 6 approved a planned unit development (PUD) and site development plan for approximately 16.98 acres on West Hensley Boulevard submitted by SLB General Contractors.

The site is currently zoned M‑2 (General Industrial) and C‑5 (General Commercial). Staff told the council SLB plans an 18,750‑square‑foot storage building and that the project would bring the site into compliance with current zoning requirements.

Planning Commission review: The Planning Commission considered the application on Sept. 23 and recommended approval, 6–0, subject to a staff condition that any future new construction, expansions or building additions affecting the overall site — including parking areas and adjacent north properties — will require a PUD amendment and site development plan approval.

Outcome: The council opened and closed the required public hearing with no speakers and approved the PUD per the staff and Planning Commission recommendation. Recorded roll call indicated unanimous approval.
