HB 1545, the "County Fair Modernization Act," requires elected members of county fair association boards to maintain attendance at 50% of meetings over any four consecutive sessions or lose their position. It also allows board members to take an optional online training course offered by Oklahoma State University's extension office to improve their service. The bill applies directly to county fair board members across Oklahoma and takes effect on November 1, 2025. The legislation focuses on governance standards without altering funding or public services.
