The Altus Municipal Authority held a regular meeting on July 1, 2025, where several key actions were taken to enhance city services and manage resources effectively.

One of the primary discussions involved the acceptance of completed work by MCR 230 Construction on the Altus Trails Phase 2 project. The council unanimously approved the motion to accept the project as complete and authorized the mayor to sign the acceptance letter.

Additionally, the council considered an interagency contract with the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality. This contract will reimburse the city up to $25,000 for costs associated with an event aimed at collecting and disposing of household hazardous waste. The motion to approve this contract also passed unanimously.

Another significant item on the agenda was an agreement with Operation Care to provide quality of life services to Altus residents. This initiative aims to promote Altus as a desirable place to live. The council approved this agreement without opposition.

The meeting also addressed the need to surplus certain Altus fire and EMS vehicles and equipment. The EMS chief reported that some vehicles were no longer cost-effective to maintain. The council discussed the potential for selling some of these vehicles to other municipalities, while others would be disposed of through auction or trade. The motion to surplus the vehicles was approved, allowing the city to manage its fleet more efficiently.

In conclusion, the Altus Municipal Authority's meeting resulted in several important approvals that will enhance community services and improve the management of city resources. The council's decisions reflect a commitment to maintaining quality services while ensuring fiscal responsibility.
