Oklahoma Open Meeting Act; adding deputy county commissioners to definition of public body. Effective date.
SB 832 amends Oklahoma's Open Meeting Act to explicitly include deputy county commissioners within the definition of "public body." This means deputy county commissioners will now be subject to the same open meeting requirements as county commissioners, including public notice and accessibility for meetings. The bill does not change existing open meeting rules but expands their application to cover deputy commissioners' actions. It takes effect November 1, 2025. (This is a definitional amendment, not a substantive policy change.)
