Voters to test machines
Do you want to vote on the “Best of Oklahoma?” Then plan to take part in a mock election Monday through Thursday, when every county in the state will participate in a trial run for the new statewide voting system.
Comanche County voting will be from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day in the county election board office in the Comanche County Courthouse. Times for other counties vary, although voting is on the same dates everywhere.
On the ballot this week will be six questions asking voters to decide on the best Oklahoma actor, sports team, athlete, Oklahoma musician, historical role model and best treat.
District 3: Road & Bridge Report (Dec 2011)
We have continued to work on Tinney Road, between 97th and 112th streets. This month we have cleaned the bar ditches so the water can drain away from the road, thus making it last longer. The road base is ready to be oiled and chipped next spring when the weather warms.
Cobb Engineering completed the bridge inspection for District 3. We have 133 bridges in our district and 97.5% of them passed without need of maintenance. The remainder needs some degree of maintenance to ensure their continued safe use. It might be surprising to know that two of the earliest bridges were built in 1915. Quite a number were constructed in the 1930’s and 1940’s.
Must have been boring football games Thanksgiving weekend because we had a rash of road signs knocked down and/or stolen. In September, the Board of County Commissioners approved a reward of $1,000.00 for information and/or evidence leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone stealing or defacing county road signs. People convicted of stealing or vandalizing county property can be ordered by the court to pay the county for the cost of any rewards granted concerning the defendant’s case.
