Master plan
Official statutory text
The county planning commission shall make, adopt and may publish
an official master plan of the county for the purpose of bringing
about coordinated physical development in accordance with the
present and future needs of the county. The master plan shall be
developed so as to conserve the natural resources of the county, to
insure efficient expenditure of public funds, and to promote the
health, safety, convenience, prosperity and general welfare of the
inhabitants. Such master plan may include, among other things,
studies and recommendations relative to the location, character and
extent of highways, railroads, bus, street car and other
transportation routes, bridges, public buildings, schools, parks,
parkways, airports, forests, wildlife refuges, dams and projects
affecting conservation of natural resources. The master plan shall
not limit the construction, maintenance or operation of public
service facilities outside of the riding surface of county roads,
streets, highways or section lines of companies regulated by the
Oklahoma Corporation Commission, nor shall such master plan apply to
or limit construction of telephone exchange buildings. The
commission may adopt the master plan in whole or in part and
subsequently amend or extend the adopted plan or portion thereof.
Before the adoption, amendment or extension of the plan or portion
thereof the commission shall hold at least one public hearing
thereon. Such hearing may be adjourned from time to time. The
