Best use for my land?

[Joey]

I own 4 acres in Tulsa. We are currently seeking a special exception to open a business on this land. The business plan is good, but I am now having doubts that this is the best use of the land. The problem is that I DON'T KNOW what the best use of this land could be. There is a nice resi area directly to my North and a commercial corner to my south. Is there a consulting company in town that could help me decide what the best use is for this land?

My suggestion would be a use that provides a good transitional buffer between the residential and commercial areas that abut your parcel.

I think someone would need a lot more info than that. What is the zoning now that you are applying for a special exception?

Darn it, I was going to suggest heavy industrial. []

Thanks for the replies. I'm not looking for suggestions on the best use, I'm looking for a type of service of consultant that I talk to. Any suggestions?

Tulsa needs more drive-through banks...

We can not help you with advice as to weather your business will flourish or fail, but we can provide land planning and land use consulting.  

Do you have a site plan yet?
Are you aware of any utilities, easements, or other development limiting factors?
Have you established a budget, or acquired a permanent lender?

If you e-mail me privately I can set up a meeting for you with a Certified Land Planning Consultant.

If you had a bunch of historic buildings on your property, the "highest best use" would most likely be demolition for surface parking.

I sense bitterness in this forum.  If by historic you mean two dilapidated pole barns, then yes it is historic.
