Voter Approved Quality of Life Projects
On August 28, 2018 Midwest City voters approved four propositions to meet important needs in different categories of essential city services: streets, water, parks and recreation and public safety.
Voter approval of the propositions authorized the City to issue General Obligation Bonds in the amount approved for all of the projects within each proposition.
