Even while Oklahomans are making history in St. Paul, Oklahomans back home are doing what we do best – helping others. 1,700+ Louisiana evacuees are staying temporarily inside the old Lucent building, and Mayor Mick Cornett continues to stay in close contact with City staff coordinating the efforts.
Also, this morning, Mayor Cornett and other mayors on the Gulf Coast and in evacuee cities got together on a conference call, where Mayor Cornett spoke to Mayor Ray Nagin of New Orleans about the Louisiana evacuees in OKC.
