The Muskogee City Council convened an executive session on Aug. 11 under Oklahoma law to discuss a pending lawsuit and to confer about a possible downtown property purchase.

Council cited 25 O.S. §307(B)(4) to discuss Polaris Technologies Inc. v. City of Muskogee (CV-2025-4570) in district court for Muskogee County and cited 25 O.S. §307(B)(3) to consult on matters pertaining to an appraisal and potential acquisition of property in downtown Muskogee.
