Midwest City council approves series of zoning, code and funding measures
Summary
At its regular meeting the Midwest City Council approved multiple rezoning and code amendments, accepted a federal/state clean-air vehicle replacement grant, accepted the city's 2024 audit, and approved a package of administrative changes to boards and reserve policy.
The Midwest City Council on March 1 approved a package of ordinances, resolutions and administrative actions affecting zoning, fees, public works projects and municipal reserves.
Among the votes, council members approved rezoning and PUD amendments for two commercial sites, adopted consolidated language and a fee schedule in the zoning ordinance, authorized a resolution of necessity to acquire property for a street extension, accepted $1,000,585 in state diesel engine replacement funding, adopted the city's audited financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2024, and raised the city's general fund emergency reserve target to 20%.
Why it matters: Together the measures advance several development projects and update the city's land-use rules and fees after decades of unchanged rates, provide grant-funded vehicle replacements that reduce diesel emissions at no local match, and increase the city's fiscal cushion.
