previously owned and operated by the United States of

America or a department or agency thereof which was

subsequently conveyed by the United States of America

or said department or agency thereof to a public trust

having the State of Oklahoma or one or more units of

county or city government as its beneficiary, or

b. the land crossed by the segment of section line is

located within the boundaries of property proposed for

construction of a new or expanded business facility.

The business shall make a minimum capital investment

of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) in the stated

facility and hire twenty-five new employees whose

salaries meet or exceed the average county wage where

the project is located;

2. Any one or more of the owners of any portion of the land on

both sides of the entire section line has failed to request or

one hundred taxpaying signers in each county, to the board of county

construct the bridge if such levy as may be required for this

purpose may be made within the constitutional limitation as to tax

levies; and such petitions or actions, at whatever stage, shall bind

and have equal force with the successors in office to those

Commissioners originally receiving it. The cost of the bridge shall

be apportioned between the counties upon the basis of their total

valuation, unless the boards of county commissioners in the exercise

of sound judgment shall agree to apportion it otherwise.

(b) The above proceeding shall not apply in the case of

intercounty bridges where the total span is two hundred (200) feet

Commission purpose
Status: in_force

Route 66 is one of the original highways within the U.S. Highway

System. Officially, the numerical designation 66 was assigned to

the Chicago-to-Los Angeles route on November 11, 1926. From the

outset, public road planners intended U.S. 66 to connect the main

streets of rural and urban communities along its course for the most

practical of reasons; most small towns had no prior access to a

major national thoroughfare. This was certainly true in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma's stretch of Route 66 runs from Miami through Tulsa and

Oklahoma City to Erick, passing through cities and towns of all

sizes and vast expanses of rural landscape, before entering Texas

and continuing on its way to Santa Monica, California. The Oklahoma

Route 66 Centennial Commission is established to plan, coordinate

and implement programs and special events to celebrate the historic

highway's centennial in 2026 with the support of the Oklahoma

Historical Society.

The centennial is an opportunity to celebrate the important

history of Route 66 in Oklahoma through commemorative, educational

and community events, including programs and exhibits about the

history of how local communities grew and changed with construction

of the highway; the development of a modern transportation system;

the cultural impact of Route 66 both within the United States and

internationally; the portrayal of Route 66 in music, artwork and

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 69. Roads, Bridges, and Ferries Page 385

folklore; and how we maintain the mystique and appeal of Route 66

for future generations.

The study, preservation and maintenance of Route-66-related

resources has been a public/private partnership in Oklahoma for

decades. Government agencies, private organizations and individual

citizens have played critical roles in these efforts, and the

Oklahoma Route 66 Centennial Commission shall seek input from these

partners and the general public as it develops plans for the

celebration and encourages their participation.

The significance of the Oklahoma stretch of Route 66 is

demonstrated through its status as both a state and a National

Scenic Byway and as a segment of the Route 66 National Historic

Trail (legislation for NHT designation is pending in the U.S.

Congress). Dozens of Oklahoma properties are related to Route 66,

such as roadbed segments, bridges, commercial buildings, service

stations and tourist attractions, and are listed in the National

Register of Historic Places. The significance of the highway is

further recognized through the National Trust for Historic

Preservation's selection of the entire length of the highway as one

of its National Treasures.

Securing bonds by trust agreement
Status: in_force

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 69. Roads, Bridges, and Ferries Page 327

In the discretion of the Authority any bonds issued under the

provisions of this article may be secured by a trust agreement by

and between the Authority and a corporate trustee, which may be any

trust company or bank having the powers of a trust company within or

without the state. Such trust agreement may pledge or assign the

tolls and other revenues to be received from the project constructed

by the use of the proceeds of the bonds, but shall not convey or

mortgage any turnpike project or any part thereof. Such trust

agreement or resolution providing for the issuance of such bonds may

contain such provisions for protecting and enforcing the rights and

remedies of the bondholders as may be reasonable and proper and not

in violation of law, including convenants setting forth the duties

of the Authority in relation to the acquisition of property and the

construction, improvement, maintenance, repair, operation and

insurance of the turnpike project in connection with which such

bonds shall have been authorized, and the custody, safeguarding and

application of all monies, and provisions for the employment of

consulting engineers in connection with the construction or

operation of such turnpike project or projects. It shall be lawful

for any bank or trust company incorporated under the laws of the

state which may act as depository of the proceeds of bonds or of

revenues to furnish such indemnifying bonds or to pledge such

securities as may be required by the Authority. Any such trust

agreement may set forth the rights and remedies of the bondholders

and of the trustee, and may restrict the individual right of action

by bondholders as is customary in trust agreements or trust

indentures securing bonds and debentures of corporations. In

addition to the foregoing any such trust agreement may contain such

other provisions as the Authority may deem reasonable and proper for

the security of the bondholders. All expenses incurred in carrying

out the provisions of such trust agreement may be treated as a part

of the cost of the operation of the turnpike project or projects.
