The City of Oklahoma City is seeking input from residents as it plans for a general obligation (GO) bond election in fall 2025, in which voters decide to fund major infrastructure projects across the city.
GO bonds are the city’s most important tool to fund major infrastructure projects like building or rebuilding streets, bridges, parks, police and fire facilities, sidewalks and more. Bond projects have been used since before statehood to pay for the city’s critical infrastructure and are determined by street and bridge ratings, planning studies, the City Council’s priorities, operating impact and resident survey results.
There are many ways people can provide input on what should be included in the 2025 bond package:

“The 2025 bond package will fund basic needs and critical infrastructure every community needs for stability, growth and safety,” City Manager Craig Freeman said. “Since 2017 when the last bond program was approved, we have been gathering input from residents in a variety of ways to learn about neighborhood and community needs. While we can’t meet every need across OKC’s 621 miles with a single GO bond election, we’re asking residents to help us identify priorities.”
