Developments Committee

Chair: Rich Thom, Co-Chair: Joe O’Donnell
The OCCA Developments Committee holds public meetings twice a month where the Committee monitors development activity, responds to zoning variance requests, histoic commission submissions and proactively encourages development that meets the requirements under the established zoning code and special zoning overlay for Old City.

To qualify for voting rights, members must attend four consecutive meetings. Committee members must attend at least two Zoning Board of Adjustments (ZBA) Hearings per year. See meetings for further details.

The OCCA Liquor Committee holds monthly meetings to monitor liquor postings, discuss new liquor license applications, meet with establishment owners, review Liquor Control Board activities and formulate responses to liquor code violations.

Membership Committee

The OCCA Membership Committee serves as a resource, providing information about OCCA and its work to prospective, new, and existing members.
