Commissioners approve electric and multiple fiber permits across Texas County
Summary
The board granted a Nextera Energy electric-line permit and a set of NextCity Networks fiber-optic permits covering multiple township sections, requiring contractors to meet all permit conditions and to bore rather than open-trench installations.
The Board of Texas County Commissioners approved a utility permit for an electric line from Nextera Energy Resources and a series of resolutions authorizing NextCity Networks Oklahoma, LLC/Utilities One, Inc. to install fiber-optic lines in multiple sections of Texas County. The permits were approved by motion of Dolan Sledge and second by Levi Bickford.
The board recorded a permit condition twice in the motion: 'All requirements of the permit must be met, and it shall be bored.' The resolutions list specific quarter-section start and end points for each run across county township/range sections and require the permittees to meet county conditions before work proceeds. Commissioners recorded unanimous approval for the permits.
