Where the data comes from

• City website: https://www.lawtonok.gov/ (City of Lawton, Comanche County; City Hall at 212 SW 9th Street). City Council page https://www.lawtonok.gov/178/City-Council; agendas and minutes page https://www.lawtonok.gov/129/Agendas-Minutes.
• Agendas, packets and minutes: the city's CivicClerk portal, https://lawtonok.portal.civicclerk.com (one page per meeting at /event/<id>/files).
• Meeting video: City of Lawton YouTube channel, https://www.youtube.com/@cityoflawton8415/streams. Council meetings are streamed live and also shown on the city website, the city Facebook page and Fidelity Cable Channel 2.
• Collected 2026-11-12 (added at Dewey's request).

Governing body

• City Council of eight ward members plus the Mayor, with a Fort Sill liaison: Mayor Stan Booker; Lane Hooton (Ward 1), Taron Epps (2), Kirby Brown (3), Tiffiney Dimery (4), Allan Hampton (5), Robert Weger (6), Sherene L. Williams (7), Randy Warren (8).
• Regular Council meetings: 2nd and 4th Tuesday, 6 PM, Wayne Gilley Auditorium (2nd floor), City Hall. Nuisance ("Dilapidated") Council meetings are held on the same dates, with addenda and special meetings as needed. An older version of the city page gave 2 PM; the current page and the portal say 6 PM.
• Other bodies on the city portal, not yet built here: City Planning Commission, Board of Adjustment, Lawton Economic Development Authority, Lawton Enhancement Trust Authority, Lawton Transit Trust Authority, Lawton Water Authority, Lawton Urban Renewal Authority, Lawton Metropolitan Area Airport Authority, the Metropolitan Planning Organization boards, Parks and Recreation Commission, Library Board, Housing Authority, Lakes and Land Commission and others.

Data quality notes

• The meeting pages were built from the portal's meeting listing only. The posted agendas, packets and minutes were not read, so no agenda items, votes or Issues are recorded yet.
• The minutes archive on the city's Municode library page could not be opened. Approved minutes on the portal are posted through the 2026-09-08 Council meeting; none are posted for 2026-09-22 onward.
• Videos are matched to meetings by the date in the stream title. The city's listing shows no separate stream for the 2026-09-22 Special Meeting; the 2026-10-20 Special Meeting has two streams.
• Meeting pages cover 2026-09-08 through 2026-12-22. The 2026-11-24, 2026-12-08 and 2026-12-22 pages are placeholders from the regular schedule. Cancelled Dilapidated meetings are noted on the Council page of the date. Boards other than the City Council are not yet built.
