Pittsburg County TID review committee appoints three at-large members
Summary
The PCDC Tax Incentive District Iren Review Committee unanimously approved three at-large appointees Dec. 8, 2025, acting on nominations from committee members. The committee will integrate the new members into upcoming planning meetings.
The PCDC Tax Incentive District (TID) Iren Review Committee voted unanimously on Dec. 8 to accept three at-large nominations to its membership.
Mike Haynes, the committee chair and governing body representative, opened the special meeting and introduced present members. Sam Rhyne, the Kiowa Public Schools representative, nominated Mike Kellogg. James Schulz, the Pittsburg County Health Department representative, nominated Brent Stone. Shelley Free, the Kiamichi Technology Center representative, nominated Rex Hatridge. Rhyne moved to accept the three nominations and Schulz seconded. The committee recorded aye votes from Haynes, Rhyne, Schulz and Free and the motion passed.
The appointment completes the statutorily required composition of the review committee that will examine the Iren project and the TID project plan. Committee counsel David Floyd had earlier summarized the committee’s duties under the governing statute and said the group will begin work on the project plan when the committee convenes next month.
The committee agreed to schedule a follow-up meeting to formally bring the at-large members into the review process and proceed with the next steps for developing the project plan. With no further business, Haynes moved to adjourn and the committee voted to adjourn.
The committee’s action was procedural and does not itself authorize or deny any tax incentives; it establishes the review body that will evaluate Iren’s project plan in subsequent meetings.
