Jared Moore and grants staff said the Emergency Rental Assistance dollars were nonrecurring COVID-era funds with a statutory or programmatic spending end date; at the outset the grants team estimated an administrative allowance and is now reconciling the budget as the program winds down. Staff said the $30,000 appears to come from staffing savings or unfilled positions and will be reprogrammed to the service side of the grant so it can be obligated to assist households.

Committee members asked whether the pattern of underspending on admin could represent a sustainable efficiency; staff said the funds were nonrecurring and could be replaced only by applying for other grants such as CDBG. Staff also confirmed that any leftover admin dollars are carried over into the next fiscal year and reprogrammed into projects on the department's website.

No vote was recorded in the committee during the April 9 discussion; the item was presented as an ordinance amendment to transfer appropriations between projects and account groups within the Emergency Rental Assistance Program subfund.

Committee members said they welcomed the reallocation because it would put additional dollars into direct assistance for renters, but asked staff to monitor year-over-year trends to ensure competitive grant administration and to avoid under-resourcing essential oversight functions.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Tulsa - Council Urban & Economic Development Committee - Apr 16, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Budget staff told the UED committee that they will transfer $30,000 from the administrative portion of the Emergency Rental Assistance Program subfund into program services so the funds can be expended before the grant's September 2025 deadline.","taxTitle","Tulsa, Tulsa County, Oklahoma","taxId",2682,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6598474,"Bike Club outlines after-school programs, trail work and a new headquarters to UED committee",740,3316000,4056000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3038128-c47b44adaf92c9e477bfd958f46b7102&start=3316&end=4056","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3038128-c47b44adaf92c9e477bfd958f46b7102/thumbnail_3316000.jpg","/articles/6598474/Tulsa/Tulsa-County/Oklahoma/Bike-Club-outlines-after-school-programs-trail-work-and-a-new-headquarters-to-UED-committee","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6598474-201455ff0caf3b8ffc7f9cef2b6e9839/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137860&Signature=TsoEoggySgZhLydCdhuytheC9x-iU~i8Wdp4cQHdGQkxzTNYBrG5zbmLIt6R0Apm4saVMvqTmztkFZMkcyshf34s9jir8dk1fXxPAYLGqW2kuphrm94w9NlMO66eq18D-C34eK8OfDeWacQziu0Pb3ICOSNAktNXuymM0vn0603yTNHJmwOkoF0DHnpovsrbgHtikoE2ZtgQlr-ZrSdfbXjC2zAWZQW2RTW2n~lK80D3XNk9GcyqBHgOnvxbkfKJZ~whwQyRGaj8ybkdgTeV6~~BZKphUl74nm2LZqZrYwlb1Tv5IxHmvC2G4IVIWY-53OsHOAcYBBECOFsSUsg8HA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Representatives from Bike Club told the UED committee on April 9 that the nonprofit operates after-school clubs, in-school bike safety lessons and trail-building projects across Tulsa and is constructing a new headquarters at Bales Park.

Emily Damick, Bike Club's director of programs and research, said the organization runs 37 elementary and middle school clubs serving more than 600 students and reaches nearly every Tulsa council district with in-school third-grade bike safety lessons. Damick said the program meets weekly year-round, that over 500 elementary students learned to ride for the first time in recent years, and that the club organizes annual capstone events and middle-school mountain bike experiences.

Bike Club also runs a bike-mechanic program for high-school students, an adaptive mountain-biking partnership for riders with physical challenges, trail-development and maintenance projects at multiple parks and a Christmas bike giveaway in partnership with Family & Children's Services. Damick said the group is collecting pre- and post-program survey data measuring mental and physical wellbeing and self-efficacy; she told councilors that post-season data from middle-school participants will be available and elementary-school post data will be complete after the May rally.

Damick described a new purpose-built headquarters at Bales Park that will include classroom space, a bike shop, bike storage and community programming, and said construction had moved from foundation to visible beams.

Councilors from multiple districts praised the program's work in building confidence and school connectivity, asked Bike Club to share survey and attendance data, and suggested the organization's student-generated route and infrastructure observations could feed into the city's GO Plan and capital priorities. Councilors also raised trail-safety concerns, including motorized vehicles on non-motorized trails; Bike Club said large groups with visible vests typically reduce conflict during rides but urged coordinated enforcement on safety issues.

Bike Club said its next rally, a citywide capstone ride, is scheduled for May 14 and invited councilors to attend. The group also said it hopes to expand middle- and high-school offerings in the coming year and to use the new headquarters for community clinics and expanded programming.","Representatives from Bike Club told the UED committee on April 9 that the nonprofit operates after-school clubs, in-school bike safety lessons and trail-building projects across Tulsa and is constructing a new headquarters at Bales Park.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6598476,"Tulsa councilors debate legality and neighborhood impacts of private pool rental apps",1035,1313000,2348000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3038128-c47b44adaf92c9e477bfd958f46b7102&start=1313&end=2348","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3038128-c47b44adaf92c9e477bfd958f46b7102/thumbnail_1313000.jpg","/articles/6598476/Tulsa/Tulsa-County/Oklahoma/Tulsa-councilors-debate-legality-and-neighborhood-impacts-of-private-pool-rental-apps","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6598476-20354330df9e59a70a612f3074386302/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137860&Signature=nMlxuICI06EoiTO~itCH832W5g0Sb9WnsiHX561jC~oL6sM72tkjzOypsISV8PSAG8RRiR21bvverZvwJAOVZ-a-mpheA9Y~Teubq-xPxwqyQyU-fbBl4kjcfcuhCymGbVBXigYbHCpW8Ary2gOHdrEAOO8Czh-HGKThH2iD~wnWe8OPG4jkeQ9NQ-CLSZ--H2QhFVeCPcNUBCp6Cx7DQeMg-T5bADwF3T9w-Hu1bRGIIeIZWAmCvC4DYIZAajRUPg0z3upenDQWd8gqF8jHTH68QB0WbKoEs03g9KFLsTptQgZJUV9X330UliMxjdKpqaEBuIGE~nmq-l27Ms1nBA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City planning staff told members of the UED committee that online platforms listing private residential pools for hourly rental are operating inside Tulsa and that the activity is not permitted in residential zoning districts.

The presentation on April 9 explained that Tulsa's zoning code treats commercial operations and home occupations differently. Type 1 home occupations allow incidental, noncustomer activity; Type 2 home occupations can have up to three customers and one nonresident employee but must occur inside a building. The planning office said pool listings displayed hourly rates, guest limits up to 40 and features such as allowances for pets — details that, staff said, make the listings inconsistent with rules for home occupations.

Planning staff showed sample listings and said they found about 14 pools listed within the city limits at the time of their review. The office described two possible regulatory paths if the council wished to act: a citywide zoning text amendment to allow and regulate the use, or property-specific rezoning to a commercial district. The staff said it would likely be reluctant to recommend a text amendment permitting commercial pool rentals citywide because of potential neighborhood impacts. The office also noted that text amendments are not site-specific and would not generate direct mailed notice to neighbors; they would follow the standard public hearing process at the Tulsa Planning Commission and the council, and typically take about 120 days to become effective.

Councilors raised multiple concerns during the discussion, including parking, noise, restroom access, frequency of rentals, liability and the potential for events that would draw dozens of guests and cars into residential streets. Several councilors said the issue currently is complaint-driven and that code enforcement is reactive; one staff member said code enforcement had received two complaints about an active listing and the owner voluntarily removed the listing.

Responses proposed by councilors included: leaving enforcement to complaints and code enforcement; researching how other cities have regulated private pool rentals and adapting short-term rental controls (for example noise and party prohibitions, decibel monitoring and licensing); evaluating a permitting model or a Board of Adjustment pathway similar to other home-occupation relief processes; and tracking the listings and complaints to gather more data before launching a citywide initiative. Multiple councilors said they did not want to unintentionally authorize broad commercial activity across residential neighborhoods by approving a sweeping zoning change.

The committee did not vote on any ordinance or text amendment during the meeting. Several members asked staff to monitor the number of listings, gather examples of other cities' regulatory approaches and return with options and data. Councilors also encouraged constituents to make formal complaints to 311 or the council when specific neighborhood impacts occur so code enforcement can act.

The staff presentation cited the city's zoning code home-occupation provisions, the Board of Adjustment process and the city's complaint-based code enforcement practice. No new regulatory measure was initiated at the April 9 meeting.

Copies of the staff slides and the sample listings will be available in the committee record; staff said they will circulate follow-up options and examples from other jurisdictions for future consideration.","City staff told the UED committee that apps listing private pools for hourly rental appear to be operating commercially in residential neighborhoods and are not allowed under Tulsa's zoning code; councilors discussed potential responses ranging from complaint-driven enforcement to city-initiated zoning text changes but took no formal action.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6598465,"Committee hears plan to move $718,123 leftover from Northgate lift station to interceptor rehab",61,764000,825000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3038128-c47b44adaf92c9e477bfd958f46b7102&start=764&end=825","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3038128-c47b44adaf92c9e477bfd958f46b7102/thumbnail_764000.jpg","/articles/6598465/Tulsa/Tulsa-County/Oklahoma/Committee-hears-plan-to-move-718123-leftover-from-Northgate-lift-station-to-interceptor-rehab","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6598465-8deaac37031fe0a0ac28f5f3793a51d6/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137860&Signature=AwWL2VZtlE8iLECRyY0EGBpbpwXGWsRkaz4oKN32M0djNy7ORxH7qQye2Sut6C2wUknydaYGFIf-~wyabA5CmAlEXfkbkzv~q2HHTZKNgPZ4owOWh~s4wibWO~my~AwYyE8A3-Jwrv9X5oSmESdnA4EiydI8iKMufnK~dFYNalVq5L4n2EhhrkmTL9HogE9SfjPQAxS1fv8H71GMQgbx403dxLtpi3Qo97xKIrDDwkpdchQTq7yMKpCAK~Yx8BhU2fc6SZSxF54StzXn6~Criny3ykLBium7cw2zt8b06qIwlYYTUA6bnYwWy9hl93gWoje~HQ2GVw7CalU~gGASZQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Jared Moore of the Budget Office told the UED committee that an ordinance amendment would move $718,123.31 in available appropriations between projects inside the 02/2019B sewer revenue bond subfund.

Moore said the Northgate Lift Station project will be completed with funds remaining; the ordinance would transfer the leftover funds to increased costs on the North Interceptor rehabilitation. The presentation described the transfer as an intra-fund movement to cover higher-than-anticipated interceptor rehab expenses; Moore answered no substantive follow-up questions from councilors during the committee presentation.

The committee did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript; the item was presented as a budget-transfer ordinance to be considered by the full council.","Budget office staff said $718,123.31 remaining in the Northgate Lift Station project will be transferred to increased costs on a north interceptor rehabilitation project; committee members asked no substantive questions and the item was presented as an ordinance amendment.","actionData","errors"]
