The Edmond Planning Commission on Oct. 7 unanimously approved a set of site‑plan and variance requests and confirmed general consent agenda items. The planning commission recorded all votes in this meeting as 3-0 where tallies are reported.

Key outcomes from the meeting:

Chipotle at Legacy at Covell (Case SP20Five‑00006): The commission approved a site plan for a 2,300‑square‑foot building at the northwest corner of Covell and Market Street, including two access points (one full access on Heritage Park Drive and a right‑turn only drive on Market Street) and a request to reduce the required driveway separation from 150 feet to about 105 feet. Staff recommended approval, including the driveway‑separation variance. Public comment was not recorded for this item. The commission approved the item 3-0 and advanced it to City Council for consideration on Oct. 27, 2025.

Case SP‑00003 (Covell and Conference Drive): The commission approved a site plan for a proposed commercial building of approximately 9,800 square feet on a roughly 2.2‑acre site at the northwest corner of Covell and Conference Drive. The applicant requested a driveway separation variance, reducing the standard 150 feet to approximately 80 feet; staff recommended approval including the variance. No public commenters spoke on this item at the hearing. The commission approved the item 3-0 and scheduled it for City Council on Oct. 27, 2025.

University Plaza sign variance (Case VA25‑00011): The commission approved a variance to the sign code to allow an additional panel on the existing University Plaza ground sign. The additional panel would increase the sign face from 72 square feet to 99 square feet, exceeding the 75‑square‑foot limit in the sign code. No public comment was recorded; the commission approved the variance 3-0 and sent the matter to City Council for Oct. 27, 2025.

General consent: The meeting opened with a general consent block. Commissioners pulled item B for separate consideration; the remaining general consent items (A, C and D) were approved together by a 3-0 vote.
