Permits in the Arcadia Lake Area, Edmond — Lake-Adjacent Properties Guide

The Arcadia Lake area covers the residential and commercial properties on the eastern edge of Edmond surrounding Lake Arcadia. The area is zoned a mix of A-1 estate, A district residential, and includes parks, recreation areas, and lake-adjacent commercial.

Lake-adjacent properties carry specific permitting considerations: watershed protection rules apply to construction near the lake, dock and boathouse construction requires coordination with the City of Edmond Lake Arcadia management, and stormwater quality features may be required to protect the lake watershed.

Many Arcadia Lake area lots have larger acreage and septic systems where city sewer service is not available. Septic permits run through the Oklahoma DEQ. Wells require Oklahoma Water Resources Board permits. Both must be in place before the city building permit is issued.
