El Reno city leaders have formally responded to a lawsuit as they defend their decision to expand El Reno’s corporate boundaries through annexation. And a newly elected state representative said he has proposed legislation to tweak state law pertaining to the matter. 

“The City of El Reno exercised its annexation power in a reasonable manner and in compliance with the standards of state law,” according to an answer filed Feb. 20 in Canadian County District Court.
