MAPS 4 sales tax collections started at midnight Wednesday, officially kicking off the ambitious program to transform our community with public investments for everyone.
MAPS 4 is a debt-free public improvement program funded by a voter-approved temporary penny sales tax. The tax will raise a projected $978 million until it expires March 2028.
The sales tax rate is staying the same. The temporary sales tax included in the Better Streets, Safer City program ended when MAPS 4 began. The bond-funded projects in Better Streets, Safer City will continue through 2027 and beyond. Visit okc.gov/tax for more on taxes in Oklahoma City.
