For More Information Contact: Commissioner Carrie Blumert at (405) 713-1501
Last week, I motioned to remove 1901 E. Grand from consideration as a location for the new jail. Thankfully, Commissioner Myles Davidson voted with me to remove it from consideration. Given that vote, I was surprised to see that location on our agenda again this week.
The site returned to our agenda because the owners of the property resubmitted it with new terms and a lower price. When I made the motion last week to remove that site, price was not a consideration in doing so.
In addition to removing the Grand site, I was pleased to remove the recently submitted location at N Reno and MLK in Oklahoma City. I have worked hard to keep the new jail out of Northeast Oklahoma City. My motion today, and the vote to remove those locations, is reaffirmation of that commitment.
