Tulsa's Area Wide Planning Brownfield Grant

 
The City of Tulsa has completed a two-year project using a Brownfields Area wide Planning Grant from the Environmental Protection Agency to identify Brownfields and create strategies for their redevelopment. The final report is available online. Throughout this project, public involvement was critical, and six public meetings were held to receive information and comment from citizens. Public comment, combined with expertise from a Neighborhood Advisory Committee and a consultant chosen by the City of Tulsa, provided a consensus for selection of six key Brownfield sites recommended for cleanup and redevelopment.
