Tulsa, OK – Proposed expansion of Tulsa city limits to the west and north spurs debate at city hall.
City economic director Mike Bunny says completion of the Gilcrease Expressway is an opportunity for growth that should not be missed .

But City Councilor Rick Westcott, his district includes the Westside, says this is far from a done deal there are way too many unanswered questions

A new state law taking effect in November would make it more difficult to annex, and those favoring expansion want to get it done before then.
