SB 36 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Long-Range Capital Planning Commission; exempting certain entity from Commission provisions. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 36 amends Oklahoma law to exempt five state authorities - the Oklahoma Ordnance Works Authority, Commissioners of the Land Office, Oklahoma Department of Transportation, Oklahoma Turnpike Authority, and Grand River Dam Authority - from the Long-Range Capital Planning Commission's property management rules. This means these entities no longer need Commission approval for leasing, purchasing, or transferring real property, and they are excluded from requirements to sell underutilized assets or deposit proceeds into the Maintenance of State Buildings Revolving Fund. The bill updates statutory language to clarify these exemptions while maintaining other provisions for state agencies not listed. It takes effect immediately due to an emergency declaration.
