Zoning 101: How Scale And Density Impact Your Neighborhood

The City of OKC, in partnership with the Neighborhood Alliance, invite you to learn more about the City’s current zoning code, how zoning decisions are made and how you can make the zoning code better. The next two sessions will cover topics that directly impact neighborhoods, so please register asap as space is limited.

Scaling Your Neighborhood:

How City Codes Affect Building

Form and Scale

Tuesday, September 20th 6:00-7:30pm via Zoom

In this session you will learn about parts of the code called Bulk Regulations that determine:

How high a building can be
How far it is set back from the street
How much the surface of the lot can be covered with building and paving

These development standards affect the way your neighborhood and surrounding commercial businesses look and function.

Density: What It Is and

How it Affects You

Tuesday, October 18th 6:00-7:30pm via Zoom

In this session you will learn about development intensity and:

How it affects neighborhood interactions
How it effects walkability of a neighborhood
The types of buildings, businesses and services around you
How the need for development intensity may change throughout your life

This session will also cover how density affects health, transportation, and city service cost; as well as the need for a mix of densities to cover diverse needs in a city.

This workshop is hosted by the Neighborhood Alliance of Central Oklahoma. Our mission is to create safe, healthy and attractive neighborhoods throughout Central Oklahoma. For more information, please visit www.nacok.org.
