Pryor Creek council approves police union contract after declining executive-session action

The Pryor Creek City Council voted to approve a collective bargaining agreement with the Fraternal Order of Police and earlier voted not to take action on a related executive-session item during the same meeting.

Council members approved the contract as presented, with “minor changes” the staff said both parties had agreed to; Councilmember Brashear moved the approval and Lamar seconded. Councilmember Brown was recorded as not present for the approval vote.

The contract matter first appeared on the agenda as a possible executive session to discuss the collective bargaining agreement between the city of Pryor Creek and the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge. For that executive-session agenda item the council made and passed a motion for no action, then later took formal action on the agreement itself.

During the discussion on the contract approval, a city staff member identified as Chase confirmed the agreement was legally acceptable as presented. The council recorded votes in favor from multiple members; Brown was noted as not present for the final tally. The meeting then moved on and adjourned.

The meeting record does not provide detailed terms of the agreement in the transcript excerpt provided, and the city did not state specific dollar amounts, duration, or other material terms in the public portion of the record included here. The transcript notes the contracts were identified by what sounded like fiscal-year labels when the motion was made but those numeric labels were not spelled out clearly in the meeting text provided.

No additional formal items related to the police contract appear in the excerpt; the council concluded its business and adjourned.
