Protecting Affordable Healthcare
Rick fought to keep the OSU Medical Center open, which provides health care for many Tulsans and individuals across NE Oklahoma.
Properly Funding Police and Fire
As Co-Chairman of the Subcommittee on the Tulsa Police Department, Rick has worked to properly fund the TPD and increase manpower. He will continue to be a strong supporter of additional police and fire support, but will fund these areas in fiscally responsible ways.
Roads, roads, roads
Rick will make sure that the Gilcrease Expressway is finished and will help bring further development to Southwest Tulsa.
Arkansas River Development
Rick is working to create a Tax Increment Financing district on the west bank of Arkansas River and bring river development to Southwest Tulsa.
Homeowner Rights
Rick spearheaded a two-year effort to protect homeowners from the excesses of neighborhood group homes, while at this same time protecting the rights of those who need
these services.
A Leader on Mass Transit
Rick has been a leading voice for affordable mass transit, and is currently working on an ad hoc committee with area leaders to address our mass transportation needs.
Tulsa is a diverse city with a bright future. But we need leaders who can represent people with diverse interests and bring all parties to the negotiating table. Rick is that type of leader. He was a Tulsa Police Officer, a carpenter, worked for a downtown bank, worked in radio for 17 years, was a college professor for 14 years, and has been a practicing attorney for 16 years. Let's re-elect Rick to represent District 2 on the Tulsa City Council.

About Rick
- Rick Westcott
- Rick Westcott grew up in Tulsa, in a blue-collar family, west of downtown along Charles Page Blvd. His mother has lived in the same house since 1959, and Rick represents the same district that he has lived in for more than 20 years. Rick knows his community, and that means he knows how to better represent his constituents at City Hall.
