- Matter of Application of The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority – Supreme Court of Oklahoma holds that bonds requested by Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to finance four turnpike construction projects all related to the construction and/or improvement of turnpikes, and therefore, statute providing funding for the four projects under one bond issue did not violate single subject rule contained in the state constitution.
- And finally, Worth a Try! is brought to us this week by Western Petroleum, LLC v. Williams County Board of Commissioners, in which an oil company set up a trailer park for its itinerant workforce (your editor gets a special tingly feeling each time he hears the term, “man camp”) and was subsequently fined for a violation of the county temporary housing regs. The applicable fine is $1k/day, but the county assessed a $1k/day per (purported) violation fine. Given the number of days, and the number of trailers, Western Petroleum’s tab came to $29,635,000. We did a little digging and learned that the entire 2017 annual operating budget for Williams County is $22.7 million. The ND Supreme Court wasn’t buying it, but ya’ gotta dream. Ya’ gotta dream.
