Top issues during term (20)(Development)
Saint Francis Hospital South expansion

The project has been funded with about $13.8 million from various sources over the years, plus a Bernstein Foundation gift covering two extra kennel pods.

Planned $80,000 contract addition for engineering and stormwater analysis, funded within the grant budget.

The city's Improve Our Tulsa package includes a $5 million infrastructure set-aside that could partially fund the area.
