One trustee proposed forming a citizens committee to inventory and recommend placement of stop signs and other traffic controls so the town could get multiple community perspectives before changing signage. Trustees noted the town lacks enforcement authority in some areas and that a working group could convene residents and stakeholders to develop recommendations.

Separately, a trustee said they had tried to contact the Langston University chief to discuss a patrol concept to supplement town coverage. The trustee apologized for not securing a visit yet because the university contact had been in training; trustees agreed to continue outreach to the university and said staff would try to arrange the presentation in a future meeting.

No formal vote to create a citizens committee was recorded in the transcript excerpt; trustees discussed nomination and next steps and left the item for follow up by staff.","Trustees debated forming a citizens committee to review stop‑sign placement and discussed inviting a Langston University public‑safety representative to present patrol options for town coverage; no binding action was taken.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6218271,"Trustees approve letter supporting Centranet’s last‑mile broadband application",36,1236000,1272000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3630333-b78ce298a0db468b3ce73f201ba6a972&start=1236&end=1272","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3630333-b78ce298a0db468b3ce73f201ba6a972/thumbnail_1236000.jpg","/articles/6218271/Coyle/Logan-County/Oklahoma/Trustees-approve-letter-supporting-Centranets-lastmile-broadband-application","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6218271-9696178b7bf45c61dd16c4019820d5ca/orig.mp4?Expires=1773588592&Signature=Zu99zVQatHS~hKYXqiABJ-F4mE75zkipssUfw-UhBtpP4WDpdA8ME4Er3hIJFE6MGITbOa3i6wQ~BIRvOEyxoMSAt94Knct9vdzeYJpIEaRLCKDC1dCHgDslQk2m3T4nG3DYdN1-F7~SPsM0YZYbF3RPpYPf4mUuxNfSr6WqcoOmmEJ9S6I8egCtNWDrDo1XXapcaO96Nn7wvGiQX8bkRoKm1Nv0iVCxaNg3LreJCl6MpjyNU-Vx3xWyYRjeH6EBRUztpsjG41lv80-YCHO2Q2IAwqmYTFXB-Y~JKZEkwPenVk2TwvZQRJ6Pbp5RdlcR57ZbZI-HhsrHfWXOt1NVUw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Trustees discussed and moved to approve a letter of support for Centranet’s application to build a last‑mile fiber network into town to serve unserved and underserved residents.

The packet described Centranet’s plan to bring fiber to the home and said the network would enable remote work, distance learning and greater digital access for residents. A trustee moved to approve the letter and another trustee seconded the motion; trustees directed staff to sign and forward the recommendation to the Oklahoma Broadband office.

The discussion focused on the potential benefits of increased broadband access; there was no in‑depth vendor presentation at the meeting.

The quote in the meeting packet from American Asphalt was described as approximately $13,500 to soft-cut, remove and install road base as needed, compact, and place 3-inch type hot mix.

Trustees discussed recent equipment issues that affect road work. Staff reported a gearbox on the finish mower was shattered and that the town’s finish mower may be unusable; if the town replaces that equipment it could alter equipment needs and influence whether to purchase a finish mill that might supplant both a brush auger and the finish mower. The town also noted a previously ordered tractor that was expected to be delivered within a couple weeks after the last meeting.

Finance comments in the meeting suggested that if road projects stay on budget there might be about $5,000 remaining that could be returned to roadwork or reallocated. Trustees discussed following up with the asphalt vendor to confirm the scope and whether transition work discussed earlier was included in the price; staff emphasized that some transition-related work was not part of the original quote.

There was no recorded formal roll-call vote on contracting with American Asphalt in the transcript excerpt; a trustee noted the contractor’s quoted price and recommended moving forward if trustees agreed. Trustees asked staff to confirm exact scope and to proceed consistent with the town’s procurement rules.","Town staff presented a roughly $13,500 quote from a private contractor to soft-cut, remove and repair road sections with 3-inch hot mix, and trustees discussed equipment failures, tractor delivery and possible reallocation of remaining road funds.",{"_33":111,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":112,"_41":113,"_43":114,"_45":115,"_47":116,"_49":117,"_51":118,"_53":119,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":120,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":121,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6218280,"Trustees say generator for lift station is due soon; grant extension must be filed",381,3635000,4016000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3630333-b78ce298a0db468b3ce73f201ba6a972&start=3635&end=4016","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3630333-b78ce298a0db468b3ce73f201ba6a972/thumbnail_3635000.jpg","/articles/6218280/Coyle/Logan-County/Oklahoma/Trustees-say-generator-for-lift-station-is-due-soon-grant-extension-must-be-filed","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6218280-4f4b3f2925c509afa25db61730379046/orig.mp4?Expires=1773588592&Signature=PP7VwkJB~ABnncBCaJO-M410xGeP~Wg3I6IjeEZ1XCade9EBGkVjPmkMGJC6TW0ivqFEKJBrYlZYXs3ceyjk0JnkdJa1GLsZ5bsqp44uhh5ALwBb~kWqkntqv9M~hAP9euhVoBACaCZEHeFoMRmoKCGFC0Fmxwj3i7JAmv4tGALPil4u8extfNtuhDNX7Ckt24UTY-AsQwc~nokdAN3fMABhcGTuuvMozPUfo8B2L8-ia9~RStuVjvbUUsQE51-QKNvRO4W4YKNIOJA-PIvQ8ZcxPYyopR5GaHTVeqCNrmS3zojn5wB~6iWx2pEMupRXuxpVVOlpIZnfZHrZkLIrNw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Town trustees were told this meeting that the electrical transfer switch for the town’s sewer lift station is installed and the generator purchase is imminent, but the town must submit a grant extension by the grant deadline to preserve funding.

Staff reported that the transfer switch box is already in place next to the lift station and that once the generator arrives crews will trench and run electrical and gas lines to connect it. The generator selected is a 32 kilowatt model to supply 480-volt service; staff said it will provide capacity beyond the lift station for possible future emergency uses.

Trustees discussed operational steps still required: locating buried utilities ahead of trenching, running the electrical conduit under a small road, and coordinating with the gas utility to set a meter where the contractor plans to tie in the gas line. A trustee asked whether the town could schedule the locate in advance so the contractor’s work window would be covered; staff recommended doing a locate early to create a 30-day window for the contractor to begin work.

The group also discussed grant timing. Staff said a grant deadline of May 30 requires filing an extension by the next day to avoid losing eligibility; one trustee volunteered to drop off an extension letter the following morning so the project remains in compliance with the grant timeline.

No final construction completion date was recorded in the public transcript. Trustees instructed staff to continue coordinating with the generator vendor, the gas utility, and the locate service and to file the extension to preserve the grant funds.

The item was discussed during the public works and utilities portion of the meeting; there was no recorded vote tied to this update.","Town staff reported that the transfer switch is installed at the lift station, the 32 kW Generac generator is expected to arrive, and a grant extension with a May 30 deadline must be submitted by tomorrow to preserve funding.","actionData","errors"]
