Oklahoma City Water Utilities Trust approves minutes, consent docket and concurrence on Capitol Hill connection

The Oklahoma City Water Utilities Trust on Sept. 9 approved the minutes from its Aug. 26 meeting, an eight-item consent docket and a concurrence with the City of Oklahoma City for a Capitol Hill connection project near Harvey and Southwest, at 20 First Street by Wally Post Park.

Trustees approved the minutes after confirming they were included in the meeting packet. The consent docket, described in the meeting as containing two state permits, several pricing agreements and three or four contracts or new contracts, was approved unanimously. A concurrence item with the City of Oklahoma City was presented for a project along the Capitol Hill connection at Harvey and Southwest, described in the meeting text as at 20 First Street by Wally Post Park; the trust stated there are no ACWIT funds involved in that item. Each item was moved and seconded and then approved, with the consent docket and concurrence described as passing unanimously in the meeting record.

Why it matters: approving the minutes and the consent docket clears routine administrative business and enables staff to continue work on the listed permits, pricing agreements and contracts. The concurrence with the city relates to a local infrastructure or connection project in the Capitol Hill area; the trust noted no ACWIT funds are being committed for that concurrence.

No public commenters were recorded on the transcript for these agenda items, and trustees moved on to general manager reports after the approvals.
