Mayor Kathy Taylor

Greetings,

We all want what's best for Tulsa, especially as we think about and begin making future plans for our great city. PLANiTULSA is a comprehensive plan for Tulsa's future that will seek citizens' input to help map out our city's future. From public meetings and months of input from Tulsans, four possible scenarios have been designed for our comprehensive plan. Each scenario shows differences in land use, transportation patterns, determining where people work, live, play and how they get around town. After months of planning and designing, it's now time for Tulsans to choose a scenario that will guide our city in the right direction. Visit www.planitulsa.org by Thursday, June 18 to take the survey for Tulsa's future!

So, Which Way Tulsa? Only you can decide - let's continue to believe in Tulsa!

Sincerely,
Kathy Taylor
Mayor
