Stormwater, Insurance, and Engineering on the Consent Agenda
The council was set to vote on committing $1,362,788.75 in local matching funds for a FEMA BRIC (Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities) grant application for the South Town Regional Stormwater Detention Project. If awarded, the grant would help fund regional stormwater detention infrastructure.

Sheridan Reserve PUD and Ward 4 Vacancy
The council was scheduled to consider Ordinance 2557, a Planned Unit Development called Sheridan Reserve on approximately 5.07 acres at East 121st St S and South Sheridan Rd. Council members were also set to discuss applicants for the Ward 4 council vacancy, though no formal action on that item was planned.
Rezoning, Housing Proposal, and Personnel Ordinance
A separate July 9 council agenda included a Tulsa County rezoning request from AG (agricultural) to RM-10 and a Planned Unit Development (PUD 879) at 3939 E. 161st Street South. A proposed 20-unit residential development near Sheridan Road and 151st Street was also listed for discussion, along with a proposed personnel services ordinance. A Public Works update on future staffing and staff attendance at a professional conference scheduled for August 24–28 was also on the agenda.
Bixby Public Works Authority
The Bixby Public Works Authority, also meeting July 9, was scheduled to approve minutes from its June 22 meeting, renew workers' compensation insurance for $16,691.59, and approve an annual agreement with the Metropolitan Environmental Trust for recycling services at $39,801.00.
