Join us on November 8th to hear Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum speak about his time leading Tulsa and what the future holds for our city.
Location: Oneok Field
Speaker: Mayor G.T. Bynum
Sworn in as the 40th Mayor of Tulsa in 2016, Mayor G.T. Bynum is using data and innovation to bring people together and make Tulsa globally competitive. Under his leadership, the City has implemented multiple strategies and programs focused on fiscal responsibility, public safety, infrastructure and equality of opportunity for all Tulsans. During Mayor Bynum’s tenure, first responders have received historic pay raises to contend with departments nationally, over a billion dollars in new investments have been announced citywide and nearly a thousand individuals have become U.S. citizens during City-hosted naturalization ceremonies. Simultaneously, Mayor Bynum is implementing the largest streets improvement program in Tulsa history (Improve Our Tulsa) and the largest economic development capital improvements program in Tulsa history (Vision Tulsa). Prior to his election as Mayor, Bynum served for eight years on the Tulsa City Council. During that time, he was elected as the youngest City Council Chairman in Tulsa history. Bynum is a proud graduate of two institutions operated by the Augustinian Order of the Catholic Church: Cascia Hall Preparatory School in Tulsa and Villanova University. Mayor Bynum comes from a family dedicated to public service and his children are the sixth generation of Bynum’s to call Tulsa home.
