Oklahoma City’s police and fire unions have organized against MAPS 3, forming a committee called "Not This MAPS.” Union officials claim the city needs to keep up staffing in the police and fire departments before moving on with MAPS 3. The city and union officials currently are in contract negotiations and city officials hope they can address concerns from police and firefighters before the vote.
