Welcome to the Shawnee Public Safety, Governance, and Economic Impact Campaign

Introduction

Welcome to our campaign to address the public safety, governance failures, and economic impact issues affecting Shawnee, OK. Our mission is to inform and engage the community, leveraging your support to drive improvements. This page provides key insights into critical ongoing issues and how you can make a difference.

Public Safety & Governance Failures

The City of Shawnee faces significant governance challenges, particularly around the **Lions Club Ballfields**, where public safety has been neglected despite available resources. We have identified the following key issues:

  • Unaddressed safety hazards at the Lions Club Ballfields after tornado damage.
  • Mismanagement of sales tax revenue meant for infrastructure safety improvements.
  • Lack of transparency in handling public funds, including medical marijuana inspection fees and fines.

USSSA RICO Proceedings & City of Moore Case Study

Our research has drawn connections between the ongoing **USSSA RICO lawsuit** and similar governance issues in other cities, such as the **City of Moore** case study. These legal proceedings highlight systemic failures in the governance of youth sports organizations and infrastructure management, which also impact Shawnee’s municipal operations.

Shawnee’s situation mirrors the failures identified in the **USSSA RICO proceedings**, where financial transparency and organizational oversight were found to be severely lacking. Similarly, the **City of Moore case study** showcases how local governance can either hinder or support youth sports infrastructure, impacting communities economically and socially.

Economic Impact in Doctoral Study & “The Journey”

As part of **The Journey** and your **doctoral study**, we explore the economic impact of youth sports governance and the infrastructure required to sustain them. Shawnee’s mismanagement not only compromises public safety but also has far-reaching economic consequences. Improving governance in cities like Shawnee and Moore is essential for ensuring that youth sports contribute positively to the local economy and public well-being.

Executive Summary

This executive summary provides a condensed view of the key findings related to Shawnee’s public safety issues, governance challenges, and the broader economic impact. Immediate action is needed to address these concerns, ensure transparency, and prevent further mismanagement.
