Oklahoma Floodplain Management Act; allowing for compensation of certain board members. Effective date.
SB 648 amends Oklahoma's Floodplain Management Act to allow compensation for county and municipal floodplain board members who currently serve without pay. Specifically, it permits county commissioners and municipal governing bodies to pay members up to $125 per meeting, while maintaining existing rules about membership requirements, terms, and expense reimbursement under state travel policies. This change directly affects local floodplain boards managing flood risk in unincorporated areas and municipalities. The bill does not alter the composition or term lengths of these boards but provides a clear compensation structure for their service. It takes effect November 1, 2025.
