Journal Staff Writer
The Perkins Planning Commis-
sion recently met with Charles
Warnken, Ph.D., an Assistant
Professor in the Division of
Regional and City Planning
at University of Oklahoma, to
discuss partnering to prepare
and complete the City's com-
prehensive plan.
Warnken undertook the job as
part of a studio class that will
take place during the fall semes-
ter at OU. Students will be seen
around the City taking notes and
photos starting around Sept. 1.
City officials went in search
of someone to help complete
the comprehensive plan when
it became known that it was
going to be mandated by the
state that the City has one in
place by 2004.
The partnership would involve
"preparation and completion of
a number of municipal docu-
ments that seek to manage and
guide future urban development
in Perkins." Each fall, the Divi-
sion of Regional and City Plan-
ning prepares a Comprehensive
Plan for a city in Oklahoma. The
work is done through a formal
studio setting, where faculty
and students partner with a
documents. The work has been
carried out for several years with
the most recent comprehensive
plans being completed for Pied-
mont and Poteau.
A comprehensive plan is
"a blueprint for growth for
a city that formally states a
municipality's development
goals and is meant to provide a
working guide for elected and
appointed officials, as well as
citizens to follow." The plan is
meant to provide "a broad policy
framework and is implemented
through a number of distinct
but inter-related documents,
typically including zoning
ordinances, subdivision regula-
tions and capital improvement
programs."
The plan generally includes
future land use map and written
policy guidelines broken into
sections for various aspects of
urban governance including land
use, housing, transportation/
circulation, economic develop-
ment, municipal infrastructure
and environmental issues.
Warnken began meeting
informally with Planning Com-
mission Chairperson Mel Miller
in September to discuss the proj-
ect and he told the Board that he
Perkins.
"What you've already com-
pleted on your own, like zoning
ordinances and goal and vision-
ing statements, puts you ahead
of a lot of other communities,"
Warnken said. "And, it shows
that you really want to go for-
ward."
Based on initial conversa-
tion with the Board and City
Manager Jack Rosson during
the meeting, Warnken priori-
tized the separate aspects that
will be addressed in the com-
prehensive plan, however, he
said these could change. These
included land use including criti-
cal structures and flood zones;
public works and infrastructure,
especially the water and sewer
system; and taking care of exist-
ing structures, especially Main
Street as it could be a real draw
for tourism. Specific priorities
were placed in the following
order: Land Use/Infrastructure,
Economic Development and
Housing.
"It's also irhportant that we
look at the mandate issues to
see what we need to do to meet
those," Warnken said. "It's even
more important that the public
gets involved. People need to
