Kay County approves interlocal agreements with neighboring governments and Kaw Nation
Summary
The BOCC approved Resolution No. 25-26-149 for an interlocal cooperative agreement with contiguous counties and separate interlocal mutual-aid agreements with the City of Newkirk, Newkirk Public Schools, and Kaw Nation; the DA noted the county's resolution lacked a specific funding source but cited the correct statute.
The Kay County Board of County Commissioners approved Resolution No. 25-26-149 authorizing an Interlocal Cooperative Agreement with contiguous counties, but the District Attorney noted the resolution did not specify a funding source even though the cited Oklahoma statute reference is correct. Commissioner Jason Shanks explained there are two separate resolutions involved: Kay County approved Res. No. 25-26-149 while Grant County adopted Res. No. 2026-64, which Kay County said it will not approve.
Separately, the BOCC approved Interlocal Agreements for mutual aid with the City of Newkirk, Newkirk Public Schools, and Kaw Nation for emergencies resulting from weather, fire, or other natural causes. Commissioner Shanks said the agreements with the City and Kaw Nation are identical; the agreement with Newkirk Public Schools limits county assistance to hauling rock and sand. District Attorney Hermanson approved the agreements as to form.
