The OML Regional Councils will serve as an Advisory Board to the OML Board of Directors, and will play an important role in our Legislative Efforts.  OML wants to have more representation from all of our cities and towns across the State, and to have our members more involved with OML. 

The NOI teaches the statutorily required topics such as Municipal Budget Requirements, the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act, the Oklahoma Open Records Act, Ethics, Procedures for Conducting Meetings, Conflict of Interest, and Purchasing Procedures.

State law requires each person elected or appointed for the first time as an officer of a municipality to attend an institute for municipal officials. The statute is codified at Title 11 O.S., Section 8-114.

An officer is defined in 11 O.S. Section 1-102 as “any person who is elected to an office in municipal government or is appointed to fill an unexpired term of an elected office, and the clerk and the treasurer whether elected or appointed. When “officer” or “official” is modified by a term which refers to a personnel position or duty, the holder of the position or duty is not an officer or official of the municipality for any purpose.”

The Oklahoma Municipal League is certified by the Department of Career and Technology as a trainer to implement this Act.  

Remember, you don't have to be a new official to attend. Returning elected officials and municipal employees are welcome!

Due to overwhelming demand, we must change the location of the June 5th NOI to Guthrie at the Meridian Technology Center.  We apologize for any inconvenience, but due to the large number of registrants we must switch locations.  OML made every effort to find another location in Midwest City, but we were only able to secure a location in Guthrie.

The Tribal Municipal Symposium was established to provide a forum in which ideas concerning common municipal issues could be exchanged amongst peers in a community building environment. It is our goal that through building communication streams, unity, and combining shared resources, an enhanced commonality between tribes and municipalities will be created. There is much more that unites us than divides us and the best way to unite is through communication and establishing a shared vision. 

The Oklahoma Municipal League will be hosting these events throughout the State, and we invite you to attend to hear from both tribal leaders and municipal officials as we work together to find solutions that affect all Oklahomans. We hope you will join us from 8:30-3:30 on February 20, in Hochatown, OK, at the Choctaw Landing.

Registration/Check-In will be 8:00-8:30 am followed by discussions to include Strategies on Collaborative Community Building, Economic Development and State of the Tribal Nations.

To book a room at Choctaw landing please use this link and use the group: SOKLA25
