The Tulsa City Council approved appointments and reappointments to boards and commissions and recognized long‑service city employees at the Aug. 21 meeting. The chair read nominations and reappointments (Janet Bingman to the Tulsa City‑County Health Department board; Julie Minor to the Route 66 Commission; Carl Bracey reappointment to the Tulsa Development Authority; Danny Williams reappointment to the Tulsa City‑County Library Commission) and the council voted to confirm the slate.
