It is City Council’s vision of the City of Oakwood to continue its heritage as a premiere residential community:
- Where citizens know and respect one another.
- Where principal emphasis is placed on neighborhood, schools, responsive city services and parks.
- Where citizens contribute to and benefit from strong, responsible stewardship of community resources.
- Where a responsible citizenry helps establish and follows community standards that preserve the quality of individual and community property.
- Where residents feel comfortable and secure in their homes as they move about the community.
- Where education is a vital community tradition.
- Where viable business and professional enterprises are clearly compatible with residential living and not in conflict with the residential integrity of the community.
- Where citizen participation is valued and encouraged to give definition to the high expectations to the community and its residents.
- Where Oakwood benefits from the involvement of its residents and employees in a variety of regional, business, cultural and governmental activities.
