Two RC fields in OKC were moved.
The Baxter Field flyers original site on the Lake Stanley Draper Reservation was closed due to the opening of a new Police shooting range. They were located 2-3 miles farther south.
The Westside club orignally at NW 50th and Morgan road got a new paved runway right down the middle of their field 4 lanes wide and 14 miles long, the John Kilpatrick Turnpike around OKC. They moved to leased land 3 miles west of the old location.
Our CL park for life in central OKC Topping park is being destroyed for new interchange of I-44 and I-235. There was a lawyer that kept defending the land, which was given to the city as a flying park inperpetuity but he evidently gave up the fight.
The TORKS of OKC had a second field in some undeveloped land. But it fell out of favor with the club. The runway is still there:

And as documented else where around here my old club in Akron Ohio the Corsair Model Club is losing a site because the county parks department doesn't want noisey little airplanes flyin OVER park land.
