EDTA approves $4,000 purchase for gravel at prior firing range using donated funds
Summary
The EDTA approved up to $4,000 to purchase gravel (briar/bridal) for driveway work at the prior firing range project; funding will come from a Cherokee Nation donation the EDTA controls under the donation condition
The Pryor Creek EDTA approved up to $4,000 to purchase gravel for the driveway into the prior firing range site, to be paid from funds donated by the Cherokee Nation.
Trustees said the gravel purchase is under state contract pricing and that the EDTA has previously authorized piping purchases for the range; the $4,000 request covers material costs only. EDTA staff discussed logistic options for hauling the material: using the city street department (smaller dump trucks, more loads) or contracting quarry trucks (fewer larger loads). Trustees asked staff to confirm legal authority for city crews to haul donated materials in this context and to get any required council approval for street‑department involvement.
Board members said the Cherokee Nation donated $107,000 for the range and that roughly $8,000 had been spent to date; the EDTA will track additional invoices and ensure the purchase is charged to donated funds. Trustees approved the $4,000 gravel purchase by roll call.
