Tulsa leaders will host five town hall meetings to try to build support for a new tax vote on November 12.

The plans for the civic improvements are already set. The meetings are for “citizens’ questions and comments,” according to the city. Mayor G.T. Bynum and the city councilors will attend most of these meetings. The proposed tax hike includes money for roads.

• April 9 – Hardesty Regional Library Frossard Auditorium, 8316 E. 93rd St.
