The Board of Osage County Commissioners convened for a regularly scheduled meeting at the fairgrounds on Monday morning for a brief and productive meeting.

 

 The Board signed two interlocal agreements with the town of Barnsdall. One is to assist with the damage that took place in Bird Creek and the other is to monitor the clean-up process from the tornado that came through Barnsdall. District One Commissioner Anthony Hudson says the monitoring system would include county and city workers.

 

During citizen's input, Hudson was asked how much it was going to take to clean up Bird Creek. Hudson said a concrete number hasn't been established, but FEMA is helping. Hudson added that clean-up efforts will be going on for awhile, but that FEMA has told the county that they are ahead of schedule by about 90 days.
