Commissioners of the Land Office; prohibiting Commissioners from charging certain fees in excess of original bid. Effective date.

SB 1004 prohibits Oklahoma's Commissioners of the Land Office from charging land leaseholders fees exceeding the original bid amount, regardless of improvements made to the leased property. This directly affects individuals and businesses leasing state-owned land who would otherwise face unexpected fee increases. The bill amends statute 64 O.S. 2021, Section 1012 to require all fees charged to remain at the initially accepted bid level. It becomes effective November 1, 2025, and does not alter the fee schedule-setting process for the Land Office.
