Turnpikes; creating the Turnpike Legislative Oversight Board. Emergency.

SB 966 creates the Turnpike Legislative Oversight Board to monitor the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority's operations, activities, and spending. The board, composed of members appointed by the Governor, House Speaker, and Senate President Pro Tempore, will receive annual reports from the Authority and may request additional information. It does not change turnpike policies or fees but establishes a formal process for legislative oversight of the Authority's budget and decisions. This procedural bill directly affects the Authority's governance structure and reporting requirements.
