- Next: none; the tree condition is the item to watch.

Log
- 2026-10-15 - City of Oklahoma City Board of Adjustment Meeting - Approved with a 13-canopy-tree condition. A board member favored the variance but noted the pending parking code update would calculate about 617 spaces for the use, with up to 17 courts and roughly 400 players in a tournament and 222 spaces planned. All the original lot trees had died; the applicant agreed to one canopy tree per large island, and the board member said he had considered asking for 40. No public comment. Vote tally not stated.
