Bingman Names Repair Panel Members

Senate President Pro Tempore Brian Bingman has chosen his appointees to the State Capitol Repair Expenditure Oversight Committee.

On Wednesday, Bingman announced that Sens. Dan Newberry, R-Tulsa, Corey Brooks, R-Washington, and Susan Paddack, D-Ada, will serve on the nine-member, bipartisan committee mandated under House Joint Resolution 1033, the legislation approved last May authorizing a $120 million bond issue to pay for critical repairs to the Capitol building.

The panel is charged with determining the scope and order of repair and restoration work. According to HJR 1033, the group must hold its first meeting no later than September 6, 2014, and has until December 31, 2014, to deliver a preliminary plan to the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services. The committee’s final plan must be delivered by June 30, 2015.
