Voters across Tulsa County overwhelmingly approved all the Vision propositions on the ballot Tuesday.

Tulsa County voters approved a countywide proposition while city of Tulsa voters approved the three Vision propositions on their ballots.

Voters in Collinsville, Glenpool Jenks and Owasso also approved the Vision propositions for their communities.

In Tulsa, the effort to pass the Vision plan, worth almost $885 million, included a wide range of politicians and other leaders, including several former mayors.
