Title: Miscellaneous Council Actions
Repository: The City of Oklahoma City Office of the City Clerk
Dates: 1892-1967
Extent: 14 c.f.
Origination: The City of Oklahoma City
Scope: The Miscellaneous Council Actions record group is a collection of records culled together by the Office of City Clerk. The records include early oaths of office and public official bonds, election nominations and returns, and letters to the Mayor and Council. Reports of commissions and department staff are also found, as well as petitions from residents and business owners for actions by the City or permission for actions of their own. Each grouping of records was filed chronoligically by type and this boxing reflects that system. The prevailing topics are citizen petitions, requests for funds for City staff professional development, requests for various event permits, contracts and agreements for service.
History: The Miscellaneous Council Actions are records previously stored in a metal trifold drawer cabinet in the City Clerk's lower vault. The record group includes a variety of documents, some of which were not enacted by the City Council. Each item was unfolded and foldered by year, in the order they were found in the drawers. Some include notes on the back indicating the action taken. The series ran from 1892 -1939 in the metal cabinet and contined to a standard file cabinet for the years 1940 - 1967. All box titles are taken from the drawer labels, which have been filed at the start of each folder containing that drawer.
