Public Radio Tulsa

StudioTulsa

Tulsa’s acclaimed Public Radio interview program is StudioTulsa. Since its inception more than a decade ago, Rich Fisher has hosted the program, anchoring it with his down-to-earth interviewing style that makes sense of complex issues and uncovers new perspectives on topics we might take for granted. Despite the wide variety of guests Rich has interviewed, many have one thing in common: At some point during the interview, you may hear them say, "That’s a very good question." It’s hard to sum up the show’s continuing success any better than that.

Produced by Scott Gregory at KWGS, Studio Tulsa is northeastern Oklahoma’s award-winning arts magazine of the air. Authors and prospective guests are invited to e-mail the program’s host or producer at studiotulsa@publicradiotulsa.org.

On today’s edition of StudioTulsa, host Rich Fisher talks with John Fregonese, principal of Fregonese Associates, a renowned urban and regional planning firm based in Portland, Oregon. Fregonese and his outfit have been working closely with the City of Tulsa in an ongoing process to develop a new Comprehensive Plan. The name for this process is PLANiTULSA.

PLANiTULSA offers the citizens of Tulsa a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape the next thirty years of our city’s growth. This city-wide procedure, as Fregonese explains, will be inclusive and reflective of the wishes and requirements of Tulsans from throughout our community.

Fregonese also discusses two upcoming (and very important) PLANiTULSA workshops: a pair of preliminary “brainstorming” sessions at which all Tulsans will be encouraged to share their ideas and concerns about the development of this city. These meetings will happen on September 22nd and 23rd. (For more information about these workshops, visit http://www.planitulsa.org/)
