Summary
At a Feb. 25 special meeting in McAlester, the Pittsburg County Board of Commissioners adopted Resolution 26-208 to declare three pieces of county equipment surplus — a mulcher, a 2017 Leeboy paver and a Hyundai wheeled excavator — and authorize their sale at auction; the vote was 2–0.
The Pittsburg County Board of County Commissioners voted Feb. 25, 2026, to declare three pieces of county equipment surplus and to authorize their sale at auction, adopting Resolution 26-208 during a special meeting in the commissioners conference room in McAlester.
Commissioner Charlie Rogers, chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, moved to adopt the resolution; Mike Haynes (recorded in the minutes as vice‑chairman) seconded the motion. The board recorded a 2–0 vote in favor with Ross Selman listed as absent.
Resolution 26-208 lists the items to be declared surplus as: a mulcher (Inventory D1-361.001, serial 18-0674; original cost $28,089; date acquired 12/29/2021), a 2017 Leeboy paver (Inventory D1-340.005, serial 153712; Leeboy; original cost not specified), and a Hyundai wheeled excavator (Inventory D1-332.115, VIN HHKHK402LJ0000302; original cost not specified). The resolution cites county authority under state law and directs that proceeds from disposal be deposited into the fund from which the property was purchased; the minutes do not specify which fund nor an auction date.
The minutes and the resolution reference compliance with state statute and procedures for disposal of county property. The meeting notice posted Feb. 23 cited the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act (25 O.S. § 301 et seq.); the resolution form cites 19 O.S. §§ 339 and 421–421.2 and directs compliance with 62 O.S. § 335 for deposit of proceeds.
The meeting record shows no fiscal transactions beyond the resolution and lists no public comment. With no further business, Haynes moved to adjourn; Rogers seconded and the board adjourned. The minutes do not record an auction date, buyer information, estimated proceeds or the special fund into which proceeds will be deposited.
