The Planning Commission approved a 3.36 acre version of West Oaks on August 16, 1999. The developer has now decided to initially develop more of the RM-M zoned area and to include some lots in the RS zoned part of his property, thus the 9.37 acres being considered.

Comments and objections have been received from four City departments at the time of this writing.
