HB 1457 prohibits centralized mail delivery systems (like community mailboxes) in new one- or two-family home neighborhoods and townhouse developments, effective November 1, 2025. It exempts existing neighborhoods with such systems before November 1, 2024; condos/apartments; commercial properties; and neighborhoods where residents or developers voted to install them (with specific voting rules). The bill allows centralized mail delivery devices under 62 inches tall in public rights-of-way if approved by local governments, and prevents municipalities from adding extra local rules about these systems. This directly affects new residential developers and neighborhood associations in Oklahoma.
