SB 969 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Turnpikes; requiring the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to compensate certain property owners for certain damages. Emergency.

This bill requires the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority to compensate property owners adjacent to turnpike projects for damage to access, value, or enjoyment of their land. Owners can choose cash compensation for devaluation, repairs to their property, or selling their land to the Authority at fair market value. Property owners must submit written requests within 20 days of receiving project notices, and if negotiations fail within 180 days, the case proceeds to court. The Authority must acquire properties at fair market value if requested, with potential attorney fees awarded if court compensation exceeds the Authority’s last offer by 10% or more.
