Regulatory Barriers - Nation Call To Action: Reports

This report from the city of Bartlesville, Oklahoma evaluates the city's development policies and regulations to identify potential barriers to the production of affordable housing. According to the report, the city currently allows small residential lots, accessory dwelling units, manufactured housing in single family districts, and one-stop expedited permitting. To actively promote affordable housing development, the report recommends adoption of additional strategies such as expedited review and fast track permitting, permit-ready plans for residential infill development, and development fee waivers for projects that include affordable housing.
