By Roger McKenzieA fortuitous conversation at a

Cherokee church could end up saving Alfalfa County a lot of money—more than $130,000. Heavenly intervention or just chance? Whatever the answer, county commissioners must be smiling at their good fortune.

The chance conversation concerned the non-working elevator in the Alfalfa County Courthouse. As he was at the church conferring about its elevator, someone mentioned the county elevator to Tony Fox of American Elevator. Fox was referred to Commissioner Doug Murrow. He contacted Murrow and learned about the non-working elevator in the courthouse. He learned about the problems with it, primarily a leaking seal that has thwarted the best efforts of

Chance encounter could save the county plenty

Kone, Inc., the firm with the county’s elevator maintenance contract. That contract was subsequently cancelled and the unused portion of its cost returned to the county when Kone couldn’t fix the elevator. Instead, the company submitted a bid to replace it.

Both American Elevator and Kone, Inc. are located in Oklahoma City.

Ironically, Kone’s bid was opened Monday the commissioners’ meeting—after Fox submitted a proposal to the county to repair the elevator and its leaking seal, not replace it. The proposal by Fox would cost the county $6,917.55. That’s a hefty savings over the $140,000-plus bid submitted by Kone to replace the elevator.

Commissioner Chad Roach expressed some concern about throwing good money at the problem if the American Elevator proposal doesn’t fix the problem. However, Fox sealed the deal with the inclusion of a one-year guarantee on the fix and the promise that the work could be done, once started, within two weeks.

Having both the guarantee and a much quicker return to service of the elevator made Roach a believer.

Even Roger C. Walhaim, who submitted the replacement bid on behalf of Kone, Inc., said he hoped the repair works.

The commissioners approved payment for the elevator repair and rejected Kone’s bid to replace it.

The eleva-tor has been out of service because it leaks oil. Fox outlined a fix for the elevator which may save the county over $130,000 over the cost of a new elevator. Photo by Roger McKenzie

Registered voters in Alfalfa County who become physically incapacitated after 5 p.m. Tuesday, May 3, won’t have to miss the May 10 Special Election for the Cherokee I-46 School District, County Election Board Secretary Kelly Stein said today.

Stein said state law permits registered voters who will be unable to go to the polls because they became incapacitated after 5 p.m. Tuesday, May 3, to vote on an emergency basis. “Physical incapacitation” includes a variety of conditions---injury, illness, childbirth---that prevent a person from voting in person at the polls on election day.

“If you think that you or someone you know fits into this category, contact the County Election Board office at 580-596-2718 as soon as possible for more information,” Stein said.

By Lynn L. MartinDeparting Superintendent Don Ford

attended his final meeting of the Alva School Board Monday night. Seated beside him was incoming Superintendent Vicky Johnson. Ford obtained approval from the board to leave a couple of months earlier than the date in his initial resignation notice.

Vicky Johnson said she and her husband have moved to Alva and have rented housing. She said there is a lot of unpacking to do.

In giving the financial report, Supt. Ford said collections are coming in very well and the district

has a carry-over projection 1.7 million, which is about a million ahead of last year.

Most of the principals’ reports consisted of telling of end-of-school year testing.

The high school girl’s golf team qualified for State. Also, seven girls and six boys qualified for the State Track tournament.

The enrollment for 9th graders will occur the week after the end of school. The goal is to work with those students and parents to design a four-year plan.

AMS Principal Terry Conder reported that the “Math Counts” students reached the gold level for the fourth year in a row and the school is nationally ranked.

“Tenure is out the window,” according to Supt. Don Ford who reported on legislative actions. He also said, the schools have been told to expect a 4.1%

decrease in funding as a result of this legislative session.

The board voted to renew a contract with “Municipal Account Systems, Inc.” for the district’s accounting software at a cost of $460 per month.

There will be two sessions of driver’s education this summer taught by Steve Gale. One session will be in June and one in July. The fee will be $175.00 per student.

Tracy Shiever will conduct a summer reading program in June.

The board approved a request by the Band Booster club to take the senior band members to Denver, Colorado May 25-28, 2011.

The board renewed a contract with Clearwater Enterprises for natural gas for AMS and AHS. Supt. Don Ford said this arrangement has saved the district a lot of money.

The board approved once again the plan to use BJCC inmates during the summer to work on district campuses. Steve Parkhurst said the workers have been outstanding. Two or three custodians will undergo training in order to supervise the inmates.

The board discussed the mowing contract. Steve Gale will be offered a contract to mow all the district sites this summer for $10 per hour using school equipment. He may be permitted to use some of the BJCC inmate help.

Supt. Vicky Johnson was appointed to the following positions:

1. Alternate co-signer of the activity

fund2. Purchasing Agent3. Information Officers and Insurance

Designee4. Student Residency/Attendance

Officer5. Federal Programs DirectorThe board approved a proposal to

declare about 40 computers surplus. They will be picked up by a computer recycling firm. In the past, the board has attempted to offer such obsolete computers for bid, and basically no bids have been offered.

Then the board entered executive session to evaluate and possibly rehire support personnel.

After six Waynoka students qualified to compete at the National FCCLA Conference in California,

the FCCLA Chapter will be hosting a fundraiser Spaghetti Dinner in the Waynoka Schools Commons Area on Sunday, May 15, from 11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m. The dinner will be by donation and the menu is spaghetti, green beans, bread and dessert.

Hannah Darr, Chelsea Head, Chassidee Koehn, Layne Meriwether, Mary Zook and Michaela Zook placed in their STAR Events at the FCCLA State STAR Event Competition held in Stillwater on April 8 & 9. Their placing qualified them for the National STAR Events competition which will take place at the FCCLA National Leadership Conference in Anaheim, California, July 9-15.

Please bring your whole family to the dinner and help raise funds for our students to attend and compete at the National.Your support is greatly appreciated.

By Lynn L. MartinThe stop light on Oklahoma Blvd

at 7th, next to McDonald’s in Alva, has been in a flashing mode instead of

the usual timed red-yellow-green sequence mode for several months now. The flashing mode means the traffic observes the intersection as if it had a four-way stop sign.

I love it. The traffic moves sooooo much faster. The jam-up caused by the vehicles exiting the McDonald’s drive-through has been reduced, and I suspect their drive-through food-delivery speed has increased considerably.

“Why don’t you leave it this way?” I asked Mayor Arden Chaffee, “Virtually all traffic from all directions moves through the intersection much faster.”

The mayor disagreed with the idea of leaving the arrangement permanent.

He believes pedestrian traffic is at much higher risk, and there is greater danger of more vehicle collisions at the intersection. His opinion was unchanged after our discussion. I suspect that neither of us will have input in the decision as that is a federal highway and probably the feds have their “standards” that will be unmovable.

I will have to admit I’ve rarely attempted that intersection as a pedestrian so I’m clueless about those types of problems.

Personally, I believe the two four-way stops in place of timed lights have worked much better on the western side of the downtown square. I will concede

Lynn Says

Sometimes less is morethat the traffic there is probably one-tenth (or less) of the traffic on Oklahoma Blvd.

Former City ManagerI was visiting with Steve Tomberlin

on Sunday at church. Four years ago, he was Alva’s city manager. Then he took a similar job at Sayre and moved on.

Steve is no longer in the city manager business. He has embarked on a couple of new business ventures that will really benefit from his long years in the city management field.

The first is no affordable new homes were being constructed in his area, so he and a partner have purchased land and are building a new sub-division of ten homes. He said they are using “manufactured homes” which will go up quickly and also

keep the price within the reach of middle class families.

I simply said, “Wow, that’s the exact same problem we have here in Alva. Wish somebody would take the lead and do that around here.”

Steve’s second venture is called, “Tomberlin & Jennings Consulting, LLC.” He has joined up with a very talented person and they are providing grant-writing services for municipalities who don’t have people with those skills on staff.

I’ve known Steve since he was a teenager, and he has a well-developed farm boy work ethic that has never wavered. My belief is the timing is ideal for both of these ventures.

By Steve WardThe Waynoka Board of Education

convened for its regular monthly meet-ing on Monday, May 2, 2011 at 7:30 with all members present as well as Superintendent Dale Ross, Principal Michael Meriwether and Minutes Clerk Becky Pingelton.

Approved unanimously were the minutes of special meetings on April 4 and April 25 at which they discussed the possible employment of a new superin-tendent, but no action was taken on that item. Also approved unanimously was the item on the agenda of the 4-25-11 meeting concerning the audit report prepared by the Chas W. Carroll, P.A. Accounting Firm from Enid. Buddy Carroll reported five minor exceptions to generally accepted accounting prin-ciples, but none of those involved any misappropriation of funds and were all easily corrected.

The Board also voted to approve the Comprehensive Local Education Plan (CLEP) for the 2011-2012 year.

Bus bidsBids had been solicited from at

least three different companies for a 2011 29-passenger Mini Bus to replace one of the aging ones that had lots of miles. After carefully reviewing the bids, The Board unanimously voted to accept the bid submitted for a Bluebird Bus from Ross Transportation at a cost of $48,881. That vendor also submitted a bid for a bus to be fueled by natural gas (CNG), but The Board felt the cost of $71,881 plus around $9,000 for ex-tra tanks to increase the bus’ range was prohibitive.

Other bids were $48,192 for a Thom-as Bus from Midwest Bus Sales and a $49,559 bid from National Bus Sales. Superintendent Ross and The Board felt they had gotten more durable service from Bluebird bodies in the past.

The Board voted to approve an agreement to with Clearwater Enterpris-es as the school’s natural gas supplier for the fiscal year July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012.

The Board voted to elect Nancy McKay of Jenks Public Schools, Roger Adair of Moore-Norman Technology Center, Ann Wade of the Oklahoma As-sociation of School Business Officials and Dan Snell from Norman Public Schools to four-year terms on the board of directors for the Oklahoma Public School Investment Interlocal Coopera-tive. (55K001)

The Board also voted to employ Dana Hope and Kristi Johnson to tem-porary contracts to work with a special needs student during the summer.

All Non-Temporary Certified Teachers re-hired

The list of certified teachers unani-mously rehired for the 2011-2012 year included: Kandee Almgren, Norene Barker, JoAnn Bellmon, Rodeana Bix-ler, Matthew Bradford, Murletta Cris-sup, Patti Gaskill, Mindy Holt, Scott Kysar, Kelly Meriwether, Steve Nutter, Alicia Pitts, Erin Place, Allan Poe, Dare-sa Poe, Debra Rankin, Connie Walker, Mary Walker and Beau Westfahl.

The Board also voted unanimously to re-hire certified temporary teachers Heather Lohmann and Nicholas Pugh for the 2011-2012 year. Also unani-

mously employed for the 2011-2012 year were support personnel including: Sharon K. Inman (12-month Custodi-an), Linda Seiger (12-month Custodi-an), Kelly Like (Cook), Kerri Truesdale (Cook), Linda Hofen (Part-time Library Aide), Gail Nickelson (12-month Secre-tary), Becky Pingelton (12-month Sec-retary), Robin Kysar (10-month Secre-tary), Matthew Bradford (Bus Driver), Kelly Like (Bus Driver), Linda Seiger (Bus Driver) and Danny Strohmehyer (Bus Driver).

The Board also approved a request for three fund raisers to help defray ex-penses for FCCLA Teacher Daresa Poe and students Hannah Darr, Layne Meri-wether, Mary Zook, Michaela Zook, Chelsea Head and Chassidee Koehn to attend the FCCLA National Leadership Conference July 9-15, 2011, in Ana-heim, California.

The Board approved the noncom-pensation (not making them up) of school days missed due to inclement weather pursuant to Section 5 GB1864 (page 6). Mr. Ross and Mr. Meriwether reported that the Waynoka Schools were well within the 1,080 hours of instruc-tion required by law even though they missed four of the scheduled 175 days taught.

Financial reportsSuperintendent Ross reported that

overall, the WISD is up in total revenues approximately $42,000 from the same time last year even though the state aid is down about $86,000.

Ross also reported the Maroon and Grey Activity Bus (called the Grey Goose) had suffered a blown motor with oil spewing out under the hood and a seized-up engine and was cur-rently parked at Carmen. The Board authorized Ross to get the bus back to Waynoka so it could be checked out thoroughly in order to determine if it is worth repairing.

The Board approved encumbrances for the General Fund in the amount of $18,387.53 and for the Building Fund in the amount of $6,977.41. They also approved General Fund Payroll Encum-brances in the amount of $175.66.

The Board adjourned into executive session for the purpose of discussing possible candidates for the superinten-dent’s position but returned to open ses-sion with no action taken and then ad-journed for the evening.

By Roger McKenzieState audit findings for Alfalfa

County’s operation in fiscal years 2007-08 and 2008-09 include only a few suggestions to improve accounting for county revenues and expenditures. The State Auditor and Inspector’s Office only recently concluded its examination for above mentioned fiscal years because it is running behind.

Fortunately, the findings issued reveal no major issues. The few minor problems mentioned include:

● A few instances of time sheets not being signed in a proper manner.

● Some apparent lack of

communication that the auditors said made it harder to get information.

● Lack of a financial statement. While the county submitted its budget and local audit information, it did not submit along with that information a prepared financial statement.

● Expenditures of funds received from the federal government were apparently not congregated into one section, but rather scattered throughout the audit and financial information supplied to the state. The state auditor’s office asked that federal expenditures be gathered and accounted for in one section.

“The county came out very well,”

said Commissioner Chad Roach, noting that for the two years there were no major violations. He also noted that he wasn’t a commissioner during one of the years included in the report.

Commissioners approved a $49,104.60 transfer of state transportation funds to a county fund. The funds were transferred from one fund to the other after the county completed a bridge over Clay Creek. The funds reimburse the county for bridge materials used in the replacement bridge work.

A private property access agreement in District 1 was also approved.

The commissioners proclaimed the week of May 1-7 as Family Week. The proclamation was made at the request of the Oklahoma Home and Community Education organization.

In other business, the Alfalfa commissioners approved the following routine items: minutes of their previous meeting, maintenance and operations warrants for payment, appropriations, the monthly Alcoholic Beverage Tax Report, Maximum Highway Expenditures Resolution, and miscellaneous officers’ reports.

State audit findings show no major problems for FY 2008 and 2009

Sadie Woodall is Aline Cleo High School’s March student of the month.

In a half-serious manner, Sadie says she feels victorious over her fellow classmates for receiving student of the month. Her plans for after high school include attending NWOSU to become a nurse, even though administering epidurals makes her feel faint.

During high school, Sadie has been active in the FFA, student council, TSA, SLC, and HOSA, as well as being employed by Pizza Hut and Farm Bureau. Her method for being a good student is simple: do your work. As she sees it, it’s not that hard to turn work in.

Sadie is the daughter of Marvin and Kari Woodall and Beth Woodall, and she is the sister of Dakota Feige.

By Yvonne Miller Kiowa’s City Council continued

their regular April meeting last Monday night. They conducted some unfinished business – still haven’t signed on mineral lease; passed resolutions on Ashbaker property; and took action to bring sewer service to the Humphrey Addition.

All members attended including Mayor Brandon Farney, Russell Molz, Bill Watson, Mark Lambert and Brian Hill.

City Administrator Nathan Law said they received four bids from companies to build a sewer line for the Humphrey Addition. Council approved the bid from Stevens Construction LLC of Salina.

Stevens reduced their bid to $65,620

by reducing the cost of the lift station. Homeowners involved include Mario and Delores Moreno; John and Jamie Terwort; John and Linda Forrester; Ron and Kristi Molz.

This breaks down to a cost of $865.30 per year over a 20 year span for each homeowner.

Law said the timeline is 30 days after the notice to proceed is published.

Council a contract with Ruggles and Bohm for $2,000 to inspect and test the project.

Council passed Resolution No. 239 to advertise for bids to demolish Delfred Ashbaker’s garage at 619 S. 8th St. An engineer’s report shows total value of the garage is $3,760.

Resolution No. 240 suspends certain types of improvements inside the city limits until a zoning ordinance is adopted by council. Citizens can request a public hearing on any improvement request denied. The

Mineral Lease Discussed FurtherRepresenting Sandridge Energy,

Barton landman Tom Klingensmith and his brother John approached council. They wanted to know if the council is “on board” to sign a no-surface mineral lease between the city and Sandridge. That’s after a lengthy presentation to council the previous month.

Council questioned the men about the $500 per acre amount offered by Sandridge. Polson asked bluntly, “Is 1/6th (royalty) as good as we’re going to get?”

Molz asked why Sandridge doesn’t just purchase landowners’ mineral rights, paying them that larger amount up front. Klingensmith said if the oil well produces it might be a better deal for property owners to only lease their mineral rights.

Council entered a 15 minute executive session with the Klingensmiths to discuss the issue further and for contractural negotiations. Then council met for another 15 minute executive session. Upon return to open session council took no action. They plan to review further with council.

Other BusinessApproved letting Tiny Blessings

Council agreed to adopt an interim police policy from the City of Harper. This is as Kiowa’s police policy was reportedly misplaced. Council also said a copy of all city files must be kept in the city office.

Law said the evening of May 19 there is a meeting of city and county elected officials. This third annual event is sponsored by Barber County Development. Guest speakers include Scott Brown and Dennis McKinney from Greensburg.
