CITY MANAGER’S MONTHLY REPORT
Letter from the City Manager Hello Muskogee,
One of the questions I am asked most often is, "What has been your biggest priority since becoming City Manager?" While there are many important answers to that question, one rises above the rest: building stronger connections between City Hall and the people we serve. I have always believed that good government begins with listening. One lesson I have learned in 30+ years in local government is the best ideas do not come from sitting behind a desk, they come from conversations with the people who experience our community every day. That is why community engagement has always been one of my highest priorities. One of the most rewarding ways I have done that is through Kendal's Koffee. What started as a simple idea to meet residents over a cup of coffee has become one of my favorite parts of the job. These conversations are informal, unscripted, and open to anyone. Sometimes we talk about major City projects, sometimes we answer questions about everyday services, and other times we simply listen to ideas about how to make Muskogee an even better place to call home. Those conversations matter, because they help me better understand the issues that are important to our residents. They allow me to explain why certain decisions are made, clear up misconceptions, and hear new perspectives that may not otherwise reach City Hall. Most importantly, they remind me that local government is ultimately about people. I also understand that not everyone can make it to a morning coffee meeting. That is why we recently began livestreaming Kendal's Koffee on Facebook. My hope is that this allows even more people to stay informed, ask questions, and participate from wherever they are. Whether you join us in person or online, I want everyone to have the opportunity to engage with their local government.
CITY OF MUSKOGEE
To me, community engagement is about much more than meetings. It is about building trust, being transparent, and creating a culture where communication goes both ways. As your City Manager, I never want City Hall to feel distant or disconnected. We may not always agree on every issue, but I believe we should always be willing to listen, have respectful conversations, and work together toward solutions. If you have not yet had the opportunity to attend a Kendal's Koffee, I hope you'll join me for the next one on September 18th. Whether you have a question, a concern, an idea, or simply want to visit, I would love the opportunity to meet you. These conversations continue to make me a better City Manager, and I always leave them with a greater appreciation for this community. The best communities are built by citizens and local government working together. I am grateful to be part of that partnership here in Muskogee.
Until next time,
Kendal Francis City Manager

This Month
Disaster could strike at any time of day, and you and your family might be separated and unable to communicate between overloaded cell towers.
Family meet-ups & texts Text, don’t talk– It is often easier to call long distance or send a text during an emergency. Choose an out-of-state friend or relative for all family members to call or text if separated during an emergency. Have two meeting places– one near your home and one outside your neighborhood in case you cannot return home after an emergency. Memorize and/or write down the phone numbers of each of your family members and emergency contacts and store copies in your emergency kits.
STAY INFORMED. STAY PREPARED. Tools and information to keep our community safe.
Safety Tips for a Smooth Back-to-School Season
CITY OF MUSKOGEE
A new school year means new routines, fresh supplies, and plenty of excitement. It’s also a great time to review safety steps to keep students, families, and communities prepared both in and out of the classroom. Back-to-School Safety Tips: Update emergency contacts – Make sure schools have current phone numbers and authorized pick-up information. Review communication plans – Ensure children know how to reach you and where to meet if separated. Practice the route – Walk or drive to school with younger students and review safe walking or bus procedures. Pack a “just in case” kit – Include a small flashlight, contact list, and any personal medical needs. Stay healthy – Encourage handwashing and good hygiene to reduce illness spread. Be weather-ready – Make sure students have appropriate clothing for unexpected conditions. A little preparation now can lead to a safe and successful school year for everyone. Wishing you and your student a great school year.
