Minutes from Comprehensive Plan Meeting

Once again, Heller Park Neighbors had a great turnout for a neighborhood meeting. We had about 40 neighbors attend the Tulsa Comprehensive Plan meeting on May 10 at Southern Hills Baptist Church. We talked for about an hour and a half with the City's planners. We shared our opinions and top priorities for the City as they begin the process of updating the comprehensive plan.

You can read the minutes that our City Planner, David Simmons, took during the meeting. The City has posted the minutes on their website at the following address:

Riverwood's Comments on www.planitulsa.org

Thanks again for the interest everyone has shown in maintaining and improving our beautiful neighborhood.

In addition to the Comprehensive Plan meeting, we established a Heller Park Neighbors Committee to work in conjunction with the South Peoria Neighborhood Connection Foundation. Wendi Ward was elected to be the Chair of this committee.

P.S. Thanks to everyone for continuing to make a clean park one of our neighborhood's priorities. Studies have shown that a clean park tends to stay clean, and a park with litter tends to attract even more litter.
