Okla. Stat. tit. 11, § 11-47-122: Enforcement of building line ordinance - Board of

adjustment - Appeals.

The council shall provide for the method by which its building

or setback regulations shall be enforced and shall provide for a

board of adjustment with powers to modify or vary the regulations,

in specific cases, in order that unwarranted hardships, which

constitute an unreasonable deprivation or use as distinguished from

the mere grant of a privilege, may be avoided, the intended purpose

of the regulations being strictly observed and the public welfare

and public safety protected. If there is a board of zoning

adjustment such board shall be appointed to serve as the board of

adjustment for the building or setback line regulations. Regulations

authorized under the provisions of this section shall not be

adopted, changed or amended until a public hearing has been held

thereon by the commission, public notice of which shall be given in

the manner provided by law. Appeals may be taken from any order,

regulation or action of a board of adjustment as provided in this

section in the manner provided by law for appeals from orders of the

board of adjustment in zoning cases.
