At its Dec. 1, 2025 meeting in McAlester, the Pittsburg County Economic Development Authority discussed establishing a dress code for employees who staff the county expo.
Trustee Mike Haynes said employees need a dress code for events at the expo and raised concerns about reports of improper language by employees and trustees. "The employees need a dress code for events at the expo," Haynes said, noting he had received complaints about conduct. Sandra Crenshaw suggested the authority obtain uniforms from Unifirst, specifically recommending embroidered shirts to present a more consistent appearance.
The discussion produced no formal motion or policy change. Members did not vote on a dress-code ordinance or a specific procurement for uniforms during the meeting. The remarks were recorded under new business as a topic for possible future action, but the minutes do not list any follow-up assignments, implementation timeline or a budget line for uniforms.
The meeting record indicates the authority handled routine business items before this discussion and adjourned without adopting a dress-code policy. Any future action to adopt a policy or to procure uniforms would require a formal agenda item and a recorded vote.
