Key outcomes
- Approved renewal of county property insurance with Burrows Agency (see separate coverage).
- Approved settlement to acquire 0.54 acre permanent right of way related to North South 4020 Road improvement (parcel 21 at 19075 East 620 Road, Inola).
- Approved a series of utility permits (items 1'026: ONG and Cox Communications across various county roads as listed on the agenda).
- Approved county contract and lease renewals for the 2025'026 fiscal year across multiple departments (county clerk, planning commission, treasurer, IT and general government vendors listed on the agenda).
- Approved a bid to upfit a Chevy Tahoe for the sheriff's office and opened/awarded other bids as noted.
- Approved Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority certificate of compliance for Lettucehead Labs LLC (processor), 19905 E. Highway 20, Claremore; board recorded that the operation will require fire suppression and new inspections.
- Approved veterans exemption reimbursement; commissioners said legislators set aside about $600,000 and that roughly one-quarter of that might be available for distribution among districts; exact county allocations will be determined after state confirmation.

Items tabled or deferred
- Investment agents list for the county investment program (tabled one week; item had been tabled at the June 23 meeting).
- Resale property fund financial statement (Oklahoma Statute title 68) (tabled one week).
- Resolution designating county depository banks (Oklahoma Statute title 19 and 121) (tabled one week).
- Investment policy review (Oklahoma Statute title 62 and sections 348.1 and 348.3) (tabled one week).
- Rock bid rebid (2026-01A) to solicit broader bids for wash chips and related materials (tabled one week).

Other business
- FEMA update (status of pending disaster claims) was placed on the agenda; staff provided an update but no formal action was recorded.
- A presentation by Bank First Insurance on the county's workers compensation renewal was given by Dawn Gordon and Sarah McCormick; the presenters said the carrier agreed to lock rates while premium changes would reflect payroll changes. No formal vote on workers compensation was recorded in the transcript.

Why it matters: The approvals affect county infrastructure projects, public-safety equipment and county finances; the tabled finance items relate to statutory requirements and county treasury processes and were deferred so responsible staff could attend or supply additional documentation.

Votes and motions (selected)
- Motion to table items 1\u0004 for one week (investment agents, resale fund statement, depository banks resolution, investment policy): motion seconded; roll call recorded aye votes; motion carried.
- Motion to approve veterans exemption reimbursement: motion carried with recorded aye votes.
- Motion to approve Lettucehead Labs LLC OMMA certificate of compliance (processor): motion carried unanimously.
- Motion to approve utility permits items 1\u0007: motions carried as read individually on the record.
- Motion to approve settlement agreement to acquire 0.54 acre right of way for North South 4020 Road improvement (parcel 21): motion carried.
- Motion to approve emergency vehicle upfit bid for sheriff's Chevy Tahoe: motion carried.

What commissioners asked for next: staff were asked to contact absent officials for the tabling of investment and treasury items and to reconfirm details for the rock-bid rebid; for the property acquisition and right of way, staff will proceed consistent with the settlement agreement approved by the board.

The meeting record shows routine approvals for permits and contracts together with a small number of substantive items (property-insurance renewal and a right-of-way settlement) and a cluster of financial items deferred one week for further review.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","06/30/25 BOCC","oneSentenceSummary","At the June 30, 2025 meeting the Rogers County Board of Commissioners approved the county property-insurance renewal, a settlement to acquire 0.54 acre for a road project and multiple utility permits and contract renewals; several finance items were tabled for one week.","taxTitle","Rogers County, Oklahoma","taxId",69043,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_46":80,"_48":81,"_50":82,"_52":83,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":84,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":85,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6552522,"Rogers County renews property-insurance program amid rising premiums",273,1295000,1568000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5115486-22f254112168e02164ccef60470eff82&start=1295&end=1568","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5115486-22f254112168e02164ccef60470eff82/thumbnail_1295000.jpg","/articles/6552522/Rogers-County/Oklahoma/Rogers-County-renews-property-insurance-program-amid-rising-premiums","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6552522-da751153fa1d303f3f3515c506fc08ef/orig.mp4?Expires=1770916711&Signature=dCBtXQzaVpxG-c3Uq7wUzvQiEo4X0hKDKR2lq~13a1L6Woxu3V6JwBeVH6y1RhiD50r8L3vWDENP54tVUz3U2Za4PuQy8m0GxsRP7Yvf35ioppxTqgmF6lX4hdMQ-Vprx3qWLRLwIQNB76U77egpcE8HEkJw0DxGpJyLHfvf7rLQVJhLeIE-Jb216okQip36nfOt5V~2aEejIXRHMZpE2fL7C8px79Fc8G0S1RLw-BGH-bMqQMKbObdFf0KmmTrlxpiNS4I~eWDHKBnBmclAShi1To3WrKmVVATZpAzNLRDhNu-cfWT8qnF9bN4kLi3R0~2xRfBKjDln6PU17BpJyQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Rogers County Board of Commissioners on June 30, 2025 approved renewal of the county's property insurance with Burrows Agency after a presentation on rising premiums and coverage changes.

In a presentation to the board, an insurance representative identified as Jerib said the county's policy includes an inflation guard that increases covered property values by 4% annually and that broader market factors have driven up property-insurance rates. \"The hundred year storms are now 30 years, 30 years are now 5 year storms,\" Jerib said, describing greater frequency and severity of weather-related claims.

Jerib told commissioners that changes to governmental tort limits will raise law-enforcement liability exposure: per-occurrence limits will increase from $125,000 to $250,000 on Nov. 1 and umbrella limits from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000. He also said Rogers County's population is roughly 100,000 and noted a statutory threshold change referenced in the presentation from 300,000 to 150,000 for classification as a \"large county,\" which would alter liability caps if the county reached that population.

Why it matters: County officials said the combination of the inflation guard, broader insurance-market rate increases and changes in liability caps is the primary reason for the premium increase presented to the board. Commissioners were told there were discrepancies remaining in the county auto schedule that could alter the final premium depending on vehicle counts and vehicle ages.

During discussion commissioners said the year's premium increase felt larger than in recent years; a commissioner characterized the increase as about 30% compared with last year. Jerib confirmed there were no deductible changes and that the renewal covers countywide exposures including the jail, the health department and drone liability.

The board voted to approve renewal of the county property insurance with Burrows Agency. The motion carried with all three commissioners recorded as voting aye: Delosier, Hendricks and Burrows.

The presentation and vote addressed only the renewal before the board. Commissioners asked staff to continue reconciling vehicle schedules and other listings that could affect final premiums; those reconciliations were described as outstanding at the time of the meeting.","The Rogers County Board of Commissioners approved renewal of the county's property insurance with the Burrows agency after a presentation outlining rising replacement costs, a 4% inflation guard and upcoming increases in law enforcement liability limits.","actionData","errors"]
