Oklahoma mayors to gather at state Capitol

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – The Oklahoma Congress of Mayors will gather on the state Capitol this week to debate issues facing municipalities and craft a legislative agenda for 2015.

Mayors from across Oklahoma will meet at the state Capitol on Friday. Delegates will attend discuss municipal issues, participate in the legislative process and ratify resolutions that will be presented to the governor and legislative leaders.

Former state Rep. Joe Dorman of Rush Springs, the Democratic nominee for governor in 2014, has served as parliamentarian since the Congress of Mayors began five years ago and has agreed to do so once again.

The Oklahoma Congress of Mayors is sponsored by the Mayors Council of Oklahoma and the Oklahoma Municipal League.
