HB 3463 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Cities and towns; annual audit; agreed-upon-procedures; State Auditor and Inspector; Oklahoma Tax Commission; revolving fund; effective date; emergency.

HB 3463 requires Oklahoma cities and towns with $50,000+ annual revenue (excluding federal grants and certain utility trust income) to conduct annual financial audits or a simplified biennial review. Smaller municipalities (under 2,500 residents) may opt for the biennial review instead of full audits. If they miss filing deadlines, the state withholds their monthly gasoline tax payments until compliance, with unfiled funds transferred to a special audit fund after two years. The bill applies directly to local governments managing significant public funds.

What changed between versions

Engrossed Floor (House) · 2 edits
MINOR
The bill was formatted for the House floor version, updating the header and session information. Substantively, the text of the audit requirements remains identical to the previous version, with no changes to financial thresholds, deadlines, or enforcement rules.
Scope change
No change in scope or applicability; the bill targets the same municipalities with over $50,000 in revenue.
TECHNICAL

Updated the document header to reflect the 'House of Representatives - Floor Version' and the '2nd Session of the 60th Legislature (2026)' instead of the 'Engrossed' status and 2024 session.

Added page headers and footers indicating 'BOLD FACE denotes Committee Amendments' to clarify the markup style used in the floor version.
