The Kingfisher County Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved two surplus-vehicle resolutions, a one-year extension agreement with Oklahoma State University Extension and a service contract with Blu Phoenix Support (with added billing pre-approval), and approved a broad list of claims and payroll on April 13, 2026.
Kingfisher County commissioners on April 13, 2026 approved a pair of surplus declarations for county tractors, authorized two service agreements and signed off on a lengthy list of purchase orders, warrants and payroll for two fiscal years.
The votes were taken at the county commissioners’ regular meeting in Kingfisher, which Chairman Mike Sparks called to order at 9:00 a.m. Commissioner Anthony Schwarz moved each action and Chairman Sparks seconded; both commissioners voted yes on the recorded motions. Commissioner Jeff Moss was recorded absent.
The board approved Resolution No. 29, declaring two 2024 John Deere 6155M tractors (ID# D-304-0017, serial 1L06155MPRG440950; and ID# D-304-0018, serial 1L06155MTRG440851) as surplus, each listed at $160,994.48. The board then approved Resolution No. 30, declaring two 2025 John Deere 6155M tractors (ID# D-304-0054, serial 1L06155MVRG441280; and ID# D-304-0055, serial 1L06155MARG441278) as surplus, each listed at $160,994.48. Both motions were moved by Commissioner Anthony Schwarz and seconded by Chairman Mike Sparks and carried by the two attending commissioners.
The commissioners also approved a service agreement between Oklahoma State University (on behalf of the county extension office), the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Kingfisher County covering July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The board approved a separate service contract with Blu Phoenix Support and added a condition to the contract specifying that any additional billed hours beyond the base agreement must be pre-approved by the chairman (or the co-chair if the chairman is unavailable) and — for work billed to the sheriff’s department — by the sheriff.
The board approved the minutes of the April 6, 2026 meeting and a broad set of purchase orders, warrants and payroll items for fiscal years 2024–25 and 2025–26. The claims list recorded in the minutes ranges from modest travel reimbursements to large vendor invoices; examples noted in the claims list include Penley Oil ($29,064.18), Yellowhouse purchases of $49,021.00 and $52,714.00, and TJ Campbell Construction entries of $563,199.89 and $1,674,005.69. The motion to approve the minutes, agenda and claims was made by Commissioner Schwarz and seconded by Chairman Sparks and passed with both voting yes.
The board also approved the monthly report for the Election Board and monthly reimbursement claims for the district attorney and the Election Board; both motions were approved by unanimous recorded vote of the two attending commissioners. No members of the public spoke during the public-comment period, according to the minutes.
The meeting adjourned at 9:07 a.m. The minutes were signed and prepared by Emily Lee, County Clerk, and were noted as approved April 20, 2026 in the meeting record.
