Tulsa Preservation Commission Members

The Tulsa Preservation Commission is an eleven-member board of the City of Tulsa.  Its membership is designed to reflect a broad variety of professional interests and specialties, such as architecture, real estate, and history, and to balance those interests with the needs of Tulsa’s historic neighborhoods and landmarks.

Nine members are appointed by the Mayor and approved by the City Council, and two members are appointed by the Arts Commission of the City of Tulsa and the Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission.  Commissioners serve staggered three-year terms and attend two meetings each month, in addition to training and committee assignments.

If you are interested in serving on the Tulsa Preservation Commission, please contact TPC staff or the Mayor’s Office (918-596-2100, boards@cityoftulsa.org). You must be a resident of the City of Tulsa and meet the requirements for appointments.  A demonstrated interest in the preservation of Tulsa’s historic resources for the benefit of the greater community is required as well.
