Okla. Stat. tit. 11, § 11-20-105: Effect of change

Unless otherwise provided for by the governing body, the

effective date of a change in the name, boundaries, or number of

wards shall be the effective date of the ordinance making such

change. Election of councilmembers or trustees for wards which have

no representation due to such change shall take place at the time

established by the governing body of the municipality but not later

than the next regular municipal election. The terms of office of

such new councilmembers or trustees shall be as provided for by the

law applicable to the form of municipal government. A change in the

boundaries or number of wards shall not disqualify a councilmember

or trustee from completing the term for which he was elected.
