Trustees approve concurrence docket with amendment noting $1.6M in "awkward funds" for sewer-relocation project
Summary
Trustees amended a concurrence-docket entry to correct an incorrect funding statement and approved the docket so bidding could proceed; the transcript uses the phrase "awkward funds" to describe the funding and does not define that term.
The Oklahoma City Water Utilities Trust on Feb. 11 approved the concurrence docket after amending an item to correct a funding statement. The transcript records that the second item on the concurrence docket includes $1,600,000 of what the meeting record refers to as "awkward funds" involved in the center’s Sewer Relocation Project; the first concurrence item was described as having no "awkward funds." Trustees approved the docket with an amendment to the funding statement so the bidding process could proceed.
A trustee urged approval to expedite bidding, saying, “I'd prefer to approve them so that we can continue on with the bidding process, expedite that, and then do some remediation on the back end.” The transcript contains inconsistent wording — including references to "awkward funds" and to "aqua aqua funds" — and the meeting record does not define the term or identify its accounting or legal meaning.
Trustees moved and seconded the amended concurrence docket and voted to approve it; the transcript records the motion as passing but does not include a roll-call vote tally.
