Executive Summary

Executive
Summary
Our Vision for Tulsa lays out concepts
for how the City of Tulsa will look, function,
and feel over the next 20 to 30 years. This
vision is the guiding document for Tulsa’s
comprehensive plan update, PLANiTULSA,
and describes the kinds of places, economy,
housing and transportation choices, parks,
and open spaces that the city’s policies should
be designed to create.
It is a product of unprecedented public
engagement, developed with the guidance
of thousands of Tulsans, stakeholders, City
staff, and a volunteer Citizens’Team. Through
this vision, Tulsans are setting our city on a
new course.
With help from surveys, workshops, and
growth and transportation scenarios, the
shared vision for Tulsa’s future is emerging.
Five key themes have surfaced.
Our Vision for Tulsa is a major step forward
in building a brighter future for the city. The
PLANiTULSA team thanks the thousands of
Tulsans who helped shape this document, and
looks forward to working with you to make our
vision a reality.
Tulsa should:
• Have a Vibrant & Dynamic Economy
• Attract & Retain Young People
• Provide Effective Transportation
• Provide Housing Choices
• Protect the Environment & Provide Sustainability
