Turkey Mountain: What Happened?

During this past week, TulsaNow was busy on the phone with INCOG, as well as scouring the Tulsa County Tax Accessor’s office, and gathering up as much official data we could possibly get our hands on. We learned a lot, and we’d like to share it. Over the next few days, as we’re enjoying the long Labor Day weekend, we’re going to be posting some maps, arial photos, and links to planning documents that we hope you’ll be as interested in digging in to as we were. We’ll also be answering your questions: contact us, and let us know what you’re confused about.
