Two IQC project partners recently won nearly $150,000 in funding from Oklahoma Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET) to enhance public spaces and walkability.
Both of these IQC projects were made possible in part by sponsorship from the Oklahoma Municipal League, an annual partner of IQC. OML supports IQC’s Community Request for Proposals which invites Oklahoma towns and cities to submit projects.
Pryor Creek Streetscapes
The City of Pryor Creek will receive $102,000 to improve walkability, wayfinding, accessibility, and safe crosswalks. These streetscape improvements are related to an IQC design workshop in March of 2020, conducted in partnership with Pryor Main Street, the Mayes County HOPE Coalition, and City of Pryor.
Luther’s Wild Horse Park
The Town of Luther will receive $36,000 to carry out improvements at Wild Horse Park. IQC developed a conceptual plan for the park in partnership with the Town of Luther Parks Commission and Friends of the Park, during a Fall 2019 community engagement and design process.
