On Dec. 1, the Bartlesville community was asked to weigh in on nearly $35 million worth of city improvement projects. City leaders said the plan could be a significant step for the city's future.
The improvements would come through approvals of sales tax-funded projects and a General obligation bond.
Margo Proctor has lived in Bartlesville all her life.
"I love Bartlesville, it's got great people and great stores," said Proctor.
Aaron Kirkpatrick with the city said this project could be vital.
"This project funds core services that we have to have," said Kirkpatrick.
Some of the proposed upgrades include street maintenance, police equipment upgrades, and new equipment for pools and parks. Once all of the exact teams for the bond are finalized, residents can vote to approve it on Feb
