Mayor Taylor To Give BOK $7 Mil for Great Plains

I'd like confirmation by someone with specific knowledge that the $7.1 million transaction has not yet occurred. Since the 'emergency' resolution failed, action could not occur sooner than 30 days, or around July 27.

Would a post dated check fly in the face of the all important emergency clause...?

It's early in the morning on July, 8th 2008...and Medlock is still a bum and not in office.

+1 Tulsa.

That's the thing that cracks me up.  There is some basis for concern with how this transaction went down -- so quickly and with little notice to the public.  But Medlock's personality is so creepy that it destroys the message, in addition to his tinfoil hat stuff.

Whenever things in this town get me down, I can at least take solace that we were smart enough to run off Delgiorno and keep Medlock out of office.

Word out of City Hall is she is giving the full $7 million to BOk based on an argument of a "moral" obligation.

Moral obligation my butt[:I], We all know that Old Man Keizer was a huge financial backer of Kathy Taylor's campaign for mayor.  I'm pretty sure that she is his puppet, because one time during an interview I saw on channel 6, I saw his hand up her butt (he may have been just performing a routine colonoscopy) Either way, $7 million is a really big kick-back and morals had nothing to do with it.

New here Stu?

Careful. Don't display assumptions without verification. Intelligent citizens don't let anyone control them. They're into cultivating ideas into reality because they love Tulsa.

The devil advocates giving them the benefit of the doubt. They seem to know business, education, and ethics a lot better than you do, Stu.

Stu, beware of posters who refer to themselves in the third person...

Third person's draw the blood. They serve as patron saints to Hades. [8D] My crime is never explicitly stated. But one takes devilish pride in being an outlaw.....

The city councilors need to focus on doing what they can for our public education and our infrastructure and leave the ballpark to the powers that be. Looks like a grand slam.

Wouldn't it be great if Tulsa could return to the classic public education offered the non-private community that in the 1960's made us nationally recognized?

I'll take a sea change on the school board, start with Perceful and Livingood.

City wants court's review of airline settlement

The request is a response to a tax-payers' demand filed last week.


The city wants a Tulsa County judge to determine whether it is lawful for the city to pay the Bank of Oklahoma a $7.1 million lawsuit settlement related to a loan default by the defunct Great Plains Airline.


God bless the Tulsa Ten! Whoever you are.

[patric]

"The mayor's office has confirmed to The News On 6 that it sent a $7.1 million check to the Bank of Oklahoma on Monday.

The payment settles a loan the bank gave to Great Plains Airlines, a start-up that quickly went out of business.

The city paid the settlement out of its sinking fund, which has to be replenished by raising property taxes for three years."

It is getting good.  Crossclaim filed for breach of duty against KKT.

If this judgement goes against her she'll personally have to pony up 21 million dollars.

I hope that jet is fueled up for a quick get away.
