County Says City Wants Too Much 'Vision'

Tulsa County

The draft plan for the Arkansas River is out, with associated costs. Nothing is set in stone, and Tulsa County leaders say that’s good.

Overall, the city of Tulsa plans on taking 0.55% for its’ Vision share, using about a third for the river. It leaves only 0.05% for the county. Commissioner Karen Keith says that’s unacceptable. They need one-tenth.

The river is in Keith’s district. She supports the planned low-water dams and levee improvements, but will not support taking money from other county priorities.
