At its Oct. 6 meeting, the Moore City Council approved a package of routine items, including acceptance of an annual actuarial report, multiple equipment and contract purchases, approval of a final plat, adoption of two ordinances, and an appointment to the health benefits committee.
Key outcomes:
- Consent docket (items a–f): approved by roll call. - Item 3: City accepted the actuarial reserve and loss forecast for fiscal year ending 06/30/2025 (reserves just under $2,300,000; forecast ~ $7.5 million for 2025–26). Motion carried by roll call. - Item 5: Final plat for Riverstone Section 1 (Phase I: 151 lots on 47 acres) approved; planning commission recommendation was 9–0. - Items 6–7: Purchase of a 2025 John Deere compact track loader ($63,750) and four trailers ($31,935) approved as budgeted replacements. - Item 8: Professional services agreement with Tap Architecture LLC ($24,800) to design renovations; approved. - Item 9: Contract with Bullseye Fence Company ($14,700) for tennis-court fence slats; approved. - Item 10: Weed Warriors Inc. contract ($21,204) for fall spraying approved. - Item 11: Agreement with Norman Regional Hospital Authority for ambulance dispatch reimbursement approved. - Item 12: Cloud storage purchase for police video ($78,210) approved (see separate story). - Item 13: Addendum No. 2 with WSB/EST Inc. (intersection project, $199,940) was stricken from the agenda to allow staff to rework the item. - Item 14: Council appointed Sid Porter to the health benefit committee. - Item 15: Ordinance adding section 10-6-19 (interfering with a first responder) adopted; fine provision up to $500 and mirrors state statute. - Item 16: Ordinance amending collision-reporting requirement (removing "if available") adopted to mirror state statute.
Most items were approved by roll-call votes with councilmembers recorded as voting "Yes"; where staff noted unanimous planning-commission recommendation or unanimous council votes, the package passed without dissent.
Next steps: Staff will rework and return item 13 at a later date; the actuarial report and purchases proceed as approved.
