Summary
The Oklahoma County Excise Board on Aug. 11 approved the minutes of its July 30 meeting after members discussed two late submissions from Edmond Public Schools that arrived by mail rather than email.
Eleanor Thompson, an Oklahoma County Excise Board member, called the special meeting to order at 9:15 a.m. Aug. 11 and the board approved the minutes of its July 30 meeting following brief discussion about two late submissions from Edmond Public Schools.
The board discussed that two items for the minutes had been mailed rather than emailed and members questioned the timing and receipt process. A board member said the items “just didn’t get it,” and the group discussed asking schools and cities to both email and mail originals going forward.
A motion to approve the minutes was moved and seconded; the board voted unanimously in favor. The vote was recorded as “Aye” by the members present.
The exchange was procedural and limited to clarifying how Edmond Public Schools had transmitted documents for the July 30 meeting; no substantive change to the minutes was recorded in the meeting transcript.
The approval cleared the way for the board to take up the FY2026 holiday calendar and several fiscal items on the Aug. 11 agenda.
