2019 Annual Report

L E T T E R F R O M T H E C H A I R

Without question, 2019 was another landmark year for Oklahoma City’s growth and development. We witnessed our dreams become a reality with the opening of Scissortail Park and then followed that up with the passage of MAPS 4 -- setting the course for a new era of projects that will improve the quality of life for our residents. The Chamber continues to be a leading voice for the growth of business and the development of our community. Our work this year was important to creating the collaboration that is so vital to continuing our city’s momentum and spreading it to affect every member of our community. From advocacy at the capitol, to our criminal justice reform efforts, to our intensive work helping companies grow, and more, we are committed to this place and these people. This report highlights our efforts this year, but is by no means an exhaustive list of the work we have accomplished together. Our membership can be proud of what we have done and enthusiastic and hopeful about the future we are creating. I am humbled to represent your efforts and thank you for your commitment. Sincerely,
