When will we find out which areas were chosen?

[PonderInc]

The first two areas (workshops tonight!) are in north Tulsa (centered on Apache between Peoria and Lewis), and in east Tulsa (vicinity of 21st and 145th).

There were approx 25 other small area nominations submitted (with a lot of "redundancies"...different people basically nominating the same area).  Taking into account the redundancies, there were about a dozen unique areas for consideration, in various areas of town.

The nominations will be reviewed within the next few weeks, and I believe 5 sites will be chosen for small area workshops (that will take place in Jan & Feb).  

There will be one additional workshop focused on transportation and related development / infrastructure. (Taking place in late Feb.)  All types of transportation will be considered: cars, bikes, pedestrians, rail, freight, you name it...
