OUR VIEW: Let voters decide on water funding

McAlester city councilors should let voters decide on a $32.5 million bond for water infrastructure.
An item on Tuesday’s meeting agenda called for discussion and possible action to call a special election to allow the McAlester Public Works Authority to go into debt to address the city’s water infrastructure needs.
Councilors pulled the item after the city’s financial advisor was unable to attend the meeting — so the item moved to the May 11 meeting.
When it comes up again, council members will consider a resolution calling for a special election on July 13 for McAlester voters to decide if they want to allow the MPWA to go into debt for $32.5 million to address water infrastructure issues.
