Proposed Process for Adoption of the Unified Development Code

This City of Edmond meeting on July 28, 2026, focused on the proposed process for adopting the Unified Development Code (UDC), which updates key municipal development regulations including subdivision, zoning, and stormwater drainage codes. The Planning Director outlined the multi-year project status and the next steps involving review by various boards and commissions such as the Planning Commission and Urban Forestry Commission. The proposal includes a 180-day transition period post-adoption to update internal systems, maps, and related municipal codes, and to begin accepting zoning applications under the new code while allowing a grace period for plat applications initiated under the old code. The discussion emphasized a methodical approach with stakeholder input and planned workshops to ensure smooth implementation. No specific contract awards or procurement actions were discussed during this meeting.
