Meeker’s Town Board of Trustees this week approved a new Trust Indenture document for purchasing and selling property for the Town of Meeker’s Industrial Trust Authority.
Trustees also approved the 2024-2025 General Fund and Public Works Authority budgets.
Meeker Town Administrator Jeff Wilbourn said, “The Trustees approved Trust Indenture unanimously with two amendments added. One of those is to say “Donna Weber/Mayor and the other is to add a clause to elect a chairman, vice chairman and secretary/treasurer with two other trustees.”
Following passage of the indenture, five officers were voted as members of the indenture. They include Leslie Wilbourn, (Jeff’s wife) three-year term, Weber, the mayor, three-year term, Josh Sims from BancFirst, two-year term, Anthony Buoy, local business owner, two-year term and Tracey Devereaux, who is a retired insurance agent and works for a construction company, one-year term.
Jeff Wilbourn commented, “I’m proud to see the Trustees pass the Trust Indenture and move forward with the new grant opportunity.”
The Town’s Trustees voted to allow the mayor and Town Clerk/Treasurer Mary Conner to sign checks to pay outstanding debts of the previous Meeker Growth and Development Authority, the Town Administrator said.
Wilbourn said the Town’s Trustees voted to move $2,501 from the previous Meeker Growth and Development Authority account to the new Trust Indenture with the remaining amount staying in the previous Meeker Growth and Development account until it’s determined what it’s to be used for in the future.
