The GrOwasso 2035 Land Use Master Plan serves as a comprehensive guide for future growth and development within the City of Owasso and its surrounding areas. Developed through extensive public engagement and committee input, the plan integrates key land use considerations, population growth trends, economic factors, community facilities, and infrastructure availability. It provides goals and action strategies across seven core elements: Land Use, Quality of Life, Infrastructure, Downtown Area, Public Safety, Sense of Community, and Economic Development. The plan aims to balance diverse land uses, enhance municipal services, and foster a sustainable, vibrant, and welcoming community for the next 20 years, with a specific focus on accommodating a projected population of 53,607 by 2035.
