County considers projects

The Woodward County Commission will be considering two important funding-related requests during their regular weekly meeting Monday morning.

The first is a request from Woodward County/City Emergency Management Director Matt Lehenbauer to adjust the amount of county funding his office will receive for Fiscal Year 2008-2009.

The second request is actually an application and resolution request from the Quinlan Community Rural Water District No. 1 for a 2009 REAP Grant from the Oklahoma Economic Development Authority.

In other financial business, the County Commissioners will be considering blanket purchase orders, approving a resolution for the maximum monthly highway expenditures and opening bids for six-month supplies for emulsions and gyp rock for all County Highway Districts.

The Woodward County Commission will meet at 10 a.m. Monday in the Woodward County Courthouse.
