A
Welcome
to
the

of
the
oklahoma

youth
council.
The

is
a
partnership
between
the
city
and
leadership,
oklahoma
city,
the
18,
youth
council,
members,
learn
about
the
challenges
of
local
government
firsthand
and
the
program
provides
them
with
an
effective,
meaningful
channel
to
influence
decisions
affecting
their
homes,
school
friends
and
community.
While
serving

Intense
rain
are
also
joining
together
to
do
resurfacing
at
county
line,
and
people
also
get
what
they
want.
The
four-lane
wine
widening
on
burton
road
will
actually
be
three
lanes
due
to
they
want
to
have
enough
room
for
people
on
bicycles
to
be
able
to
get
along,
and
that's
that
should
be
done
by
this
bowl,
and
that's
all
for
my
report.
Thank
you.
Thank

worked
very
hard

Therefore,
reducing
the
number
