Bill overview
This bill allows Oklahoma cities and towns to officially designate buildings as ‘unoccupied’ for specific purposes, such as demolition or redevelopment. Currently, municipalities have limited authority in declaring buildings vacant. The legislation provides a formal process for local governments to identify and formally declare buildings as unoccupied, streamlining efforts to address blight and facilitate community development. It also sets an effective date for the law’s implementation.
