About TuLsACouncil.org
On Valentine's Day in 1989, Tulsa voters approved the most sweeping changes in city government since the original 1908 charter. A new system was chosen to replace an outdated City Commission. The change came about after a 35-year debate on how City government could better represent the citizens of Tulsa. This new Charter provided for a Mayor-Council form of government with fewer City departments, more centralization, and greater operational efficiency.
