The Mayor’s Land Use Task Force will meet on Monday September 21st, at 4:00 p.m. at City Hall, Room 411.
PreserveMidtown presented a video and power point presentation to this Task Force last spring regarding infill problems including stormwater run-off issues. One of the points we made was that this current task force is only the latest of many reports regarding the same issues. This time, we want to ensure that the recommendations are acted on. The previous reports just sat on the shelf with no action. This is an accountability issue.
Go to http://www.preservemidtown.com/category/teardown-infill-issues/ to view the power point and the video presentations.
The agenda will include presentations from:
- INCOG – Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission / Board of Adjustment
- City of Tulsa Development Services Department
- City of Tulsa Planning Department / PLANiTulsa
Each department/agency will provide a progress report on its activities, as they relate to the Task Force recommendations of June 16th. The public is welcome to attend, but the Task Force will not be taking public comment at this meeting.
Starting Monday, the Task Force will meet every three months, on the third Monday, to evaluate progress on the recommendations. Special meetings might be called between regular meetings, as the need arises.
We encourage all interested parties to attend this meeting and keep up-to-date on all progress with implementing systemic changes identified in the current report. Tulsa residents must be the “watch-dogs” if we truly want changes made to the land use system.
