Civilian oversight of public safety

Unresolved; a 2019 version was front-loaded with $500,000.

Online Human Rights Commission complaint form

Likely no additional taxpayer cost — the city is reusing software it already has.

Human remains protection ordinance

Work stoppages and archaeological reviews could add costs and time to development projects in the Greenwood area.

Tulsa Public Schools Challenges

The bond package funds school improvements across four propositions, though bond dollars can't pay for staff — TPS is cutting $7 million from district office positions.

Eviction prevention and legal representation program

Backed by a PY 26 HUD allocation plus private United Way funding through the SEMR Institute partnership since 2023.

Updated floodplain maps and resident notification

Owners newly mapped into the floodplain could face mandatory flood insurance costs; notification letters go out next month.

Florence Park Neighborhood Character Overlay

The owner avoids demolishing a small concrete section that could otherwise be replaced with even more paving.

2026-2027 budget amendments and GO Bond spending

Sets city spending and services for the coming fiscal year.

Rezoning CO-23: 275-unit apartment proposal at 71st & Union

Corridor improvements like the 81st Street diverging diamond interchange are already in the works; costs weren't detailed.

Saint Francis Hospital South expansion

No direct city cost identified; supports private hospital expansion in south Tulsa.

Flock surveillance and privacy policy

Mattress disposal rises to $20 each starting October 1, still well below private landfill costs.

Dreamkeepers Park renovation design

Grant money from the National Park Conservation Fund could cover signage the original park grant didn't.

Philcade building TIF split into Districts J and K

Redirects future tax increment; the Cathedral District alone has roughly $500 million in identified redevelopment needs.

Dissolution of the joint city-county planning commission

Staff said splitting saves resources since the two bodies already operate separately after the city planning office moved three years ago.

Opioid settlement funds for mental health crisis response

About $400,000 in year one from opioid settlement dollars, proposed via a future budget amendment.

New Tulsa Animal Services facility nearing completion

The project has been funded with about $13.8 million from various sources over the years, plus a Bernstein Foundation gift covering two extra kennel pods.

Transparency of judgment and settlement payments

$284,850.45 total, repaid to the Sinking Fund via a three-year property tax levy.

Greenwood Legacy Corporation capacity building and conveyance agreements

Omaha's model drew roughly $500 million in state investment; Tulsa's plan could unlock similar funding and keep more of the $2.15 billion flowing into Black Tulsa households circulating locally.

Z-7871: AG-R rezoning near 101st & 74th East Ave.

Safe Move Tulsa homelessness reporting and funding pace

Uses proceeds of the existing 2017 temporary sales tax — no new tax, but tens of millions redirected toward homelessness services.
