Oklahoma County members discuss special meeting to address November tornado reimbursements
Summary
Members discussed documented tornado damage from November, possible substantial reimbursement amounts, and arranging a special meeting so residents can receive reimbursements; no formal vote was recorded in the transcript.
Members discussed ongoing documentation of damage from a November tornado and whether the county should hold a special meeting to process reimbursements for affected residents.
Member 2 said the reimbursement list is still incomplete: "This is a partial group. I think we're still gonna have some more that'll be coming in on regarding the tornado from November, the late tornado that hit. And, and whenever we get it all totaled up, it will be a substantial amount. And, we'll continue to work on finding we like, last week, we found some more damage and we're documenting that." The member said the group planned to continue compiling damages and expected a larger tally when complete.
Discussion turned to whether a special meeting could be convened to consider reimbursement requests. Counselor Thomas was referenced about legal and procedural requirements for a special meeting; members asked whether a special meeting could be scheduled to address this single topic. The transcript records agreement to hold a special meeting if needed, and a clerk—referred to as Randy—was asked to post the meeting notice. No formal motion or vote to call a special meeting is recorded in the provided excerpt.
Members noted several residents were waiting on reimbursements and requested timely processing; no dollar amounts or specific reimbursement schedules were provided in the excerpt.
