Big News ~ Levee Repairs/Replacement ~ Governor Stitt signed HB2890 yesterday appropriating $50 million in state funds, which along with funds from Tulsa County, Tulsa & Sand Springs ($15 million) completes local matching dollars required to move forward with $137 million in federal funds appropriated in 2022. Special thanks to House Speaker Designee Kyle Hilbert, Rep. Lonnie Sims, Senators Cody Rogers, Dave Rader, John Haste, and many other members of the State Legislature for supporting this critical infrastructure upgrade which protects over 10,000 people in Sands Springs and West Tulsa.
This is monumental for Tulsa County and the levee districts. I know Gaylon was elated to see this funding go through. So glad PMg is a part of this vital work for the citizens.
