Today is Wednesday, April 15th.

It's 10 30 a.m.

And we're at the urban and economic development committee meeting.

Welcome those of you joining us online and in the room.

First order of business is uh we called the meeting to order, second order of business.

Rezoning application Z7853 from RS3 to CH for property located north, north north and east of the northeast corner of Southwest Boulevard and West 38 place.

Requested by the Tulsa City Council, property owner, City of Tulsa in Council District 2 team APC voted 901 to recommend approval of the zoning.

And Susan Miller is so this isn't anything new.

Um I presented this for uh when you all were considering it for initiation and you initiated it.

This is something uh this is a piece of a parcel sort of along Southwest Boulevard Route 66 that currently houses the administrative offices for the Route 66 Main Street, it's zoned RS3, the highway zone RS3, which which never really matters what the highway zoned, but I think this was really caught up in that zoning.

It was been that way since 1970.

In order to facilitate a gift shop, um, which is something they want to get in place for the centennial, they need commercial zoning.

So that's what this request is for.

The 901, the one is is Genie Q because she recused herself because of her involvement in the you know community development funding for it.

So um, so anyway, it's really pretty straightforward, it just needs to be commercial, even to better facilitate what it's used for now, but especially for a gift shop.

Yes.

Um why is the property adjoining?

Why is that CG?

I don't know, that's been there a long time as well.

So there's we decided when we were kind of uh here, let's go.

Let's look here.

I'm just curious.

I mean, I've been over there.

I'm just curious.

Is there nothing there?

Oh, to the it's um, and that's the route that is the actual main street house.

Oh, okay.

Right, that's a parking lot or something.

Yeah, that's why I was confused.

I was like, I don't know how that goes.

Why is that commercial general?

I don't think there's anything there.

Yeah, not really.

But CGCH, they're very very close in what you can do, but we decided just to go ahead and go with CH since most of the property around it is CH.

Okay.

All right, any other questions?

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Uh Susan.

Item number three ordinance amending the Tulsa Revised Ordinances, Title V Boards, Commission and Committee Chapter 5, Greater Tulsa Area Indian Affairs Commission reorganizing for the reliable for the readability restructuring commission appointees in terms of providing for tribal designee from the Scotchy Creek Nation, the um Cherokee Nation and the O State Nation providing that the City of Tulsa Director of Travel Policy and Partnership for similar position in the evidence thereof shall be an exo non-voting member of the commission.

I don't think I recall your name, sorry.

Good morning, I'm Daniel Carter, the vice chair of the Greater Tulsa Area Indian Affairs Commission.

Thank you for having me here.

Would you like to speak to this or wouldn't it have to be helpful to set some context about if just for other folks the collection?

Yeah.

Um because I had spoken um maybe it was it last week that we met last.

I don't know what day it is.

Anyway, um, with a miss two week where we had a sorry I won't have a small big thing.

No, I'm day approved.

So um you we had this go through our committee table before, and we had it up for a vote at our last council meeting.

However, once um some of us had looked at it a bit more, we had more questions about that.

We I wish we'd caught up sooner for the committee meeting, and then I know you were out of town, right?

We were doing that last minute thing, so we apologize for the both delay because I I also know from the Title V end of things from one human rights commission how hard it is and helping state need is to work with everyone to even redraft these documents.

So we really appreciate you coming to join us.

But we had we had held it back where we got some answers from Amanda Swoke, but she really spoke to that um that's the vice chair was really best to kind of communicate and explain it because of the restructure.

Um we'd had questions about who this helped bring to the table or who it potentially left out, and it sounded like there were some really good explanations about how this really helped broaden and shore up the membership.

So if you wouldn't mind just explaining to us, you know, some of the shifts, it sounds like there's just some language cleanup here and what this changes or doesn't change relative to that.

I just think that would be really helpful.

We just all had context questions that I wish we'd caught when we had it on committee that first tied in.

Thank you for your patience with us as we've been back three as of this.
