Started an Oklahoma Municipally-Elected Official’s Association

Ward I,

Just a note that I just started the Municipal Elected Official’s Association in Oklahoma. I started it recently at the Oklahoma Municipal League (OML) meeting.

The goal of the Association is to promote municipal government in Oklahoma because it’s the only group not organized on the municipal level. It could potentially be a powerful force to increase the voice municipal government.
I would expect the Association would certainly be about, but not limited to:
• Non-partisan activities - not endorsing or oppose any candidate for public office;
• Provide members with professional support in performance of their responsibilities;
• Encourage best practices in municipal administration and promoting mutuality of interests;
• Promote municipal needs at the capitol;
• Manage contact information and communication channels for Municipally Elected Officials across the state;
• And, set up and maintain a website for the Association.
