ACOG: LEADING VOICE FOR REGIONAL COLLABORATION IN CENTRAL OKLAHOMA

The Association of Central Oklahoma Governments (ACOG) was established on June 29, 1966. ACOG is the leading voice for regional collaboration in Central Oklahoma.  Comprised of local governments that include 47 cities and 4 counties, ACOG’s mission is to advocate for regional cooperation and address common issues; solve mutual problems and promote efficient government services; and to strive to improve the quality of life in Central Oklahoma.

ACOG, as the designated regional planning agency for Central Oklahoma, provides a forum for elected officials to come together and solve common problems.  With local elected official guidance and consent, it also administers and manages the state and federal grant programs for which it receives funds.  Through various grant funding mechanisms, membership dues, and service fees, ACOG administers four major service areas: Transportation Planning Services (Metropolitan Planning Organization – MPO), 9-1-1 & Public Safety, Community & Economic Development, and Water Resources.
