This measure is a legislative referendum proposed by SJR 16 that was passed during the 2024 regular session. The question will allow for the creation of public infrastructure districts. To form a public infrastructure district, a petition must be filed with a municipality containing signatures of all surface property owners within the district’s proposed boundaries. Once the municipality approves the petition, the district is governed by a board of trustees that may issue bonds to pay for public improvements inside the district. These bonds cannot exceed ten mills. The bonds are repaid through specially assessed taxes levied on the properties benefiting from the improvements.
Supporters Say:
SQ 833 gives municipalities a tool to provide the infrastructure necessary for growing and improving communities.
Unlike a TIF, Public Infrastructure Districts allow for normally assessed ad valorem dollars to continue to go towards schools, EMS, and other local services.
Opponents Say:
If a developer owns all the land in the public infrastructure district, it will only take one signature to petition the city council for the PID’s creation.
SQ 833 would increase the cost of property taxes if someone bought property in the PID.
SQ 834 was placed on the ballot via legislative referendum during the 2024 legislative session. The question amends the definition of qualified electors in the Oklahoma Constitution by replacing the phrase all citizens of the United States with only citizens of the United States in the listed criteria to be a qualified elector in the State of Oklahoma.
Supporters Say:
Changing Oklahoma’s voter qualifications will provide more clarity for who is and is not qualified to vote in the state of Oklahoma.
This change will provide further security for Oklahoma’s elections against interference and impropriety.
Opponents Say:
Oklahoma’s constitution is already clear- U.S. citizens are the lone group of people allowed to vote in Oklahoma elections.
Oklahoma has the most secure elections in the country and rearranging one sentence in the Constitution will not provide any more election security than we already have.
