The editorial board discusses the activities over the past 15 months at City Council meetings.  Over the past 15-16 months a group of citizens has been using the city council meetings as their sounding board for trying to make change occur within the city. 

Darrell Davis, Edmond's mayor, joins the podcast to discuss "All Things Edmond."  This series within a series will allow our city council to discuss what is happening around town and what they are involved with around the city.

The editorial board does a quick review of the past year (2021) and discusses up and coming topics of interest for the new year.

The editorial board examines future changes to our city government.  With several key positions retiring in the next year or so, the city council will be making critically important hires to assist them in managing the operations of our city government.

Comments and questions about changes to the city charter have resurfaced in conversation about the redistricting of precincts for state offices.  The editorial board discusses the possibility of charter changes to address the boundaries and number of wards, as well as other potential charter changes.  

The editorial board discusses the upcoming city-wide vote to create a temporary sales tax to purchase 22 acres south of Hafer Park.  This purchase would not only create a buffer between the park and surrounding commercial development, but it would also end more than 20 years of fighting over this property. 

The city council has approved the development of a Veterans' Memorial to be located in the north end of Bickham-Rudkin Park.  The editorial board discusses the pros, cons and the public debate surrounding the issue in our inaugural episode of Edmond Voices.
