OML Municipal Liaison Board to the OK Tax Commission 

This Board was formed by the OML Board of Directors in April 2010 to further the League’s on-going efforts to increase municipal revenues.  The purpose of the liaison board is to develop opportunities to work better with the Oklahoma Tax Commission (OTC) involving sales and use tax collections and enforcement; the Independent Auditor Program as well as accountability by OTC for the retainage paid by municipalities for enforcement of their sales tax ordinances. 

Board is comprised of municipal officials chosen to represent:

• various municipal positions that deal with the Tax Commission,

• metro and non-metro municipalities, and

• all sections of the state.

• OML attorneys facilitate the Liaison Board’s meetings and activities.

The Liaison Board has authority to establish mechanisms for:

• accountability for the retainage fees paid by cities and towns,

• setting of priorities for OTC collection and enforcement activities,

• improving the contract terms and reporting methods,

• involving municipalities in formulating OTC’s policies and procedures in its enforcement of municipal tax ordinances, and

• working on draft legislation and priorities to modernize municipal revenue.
