Okla. Stat. tit. 19, § 19-421.2: Surplus machinery, equipment or vehicles - Transfer to

political subdivisions.

A. A unanimous vote of the board of county commissioners may

transfer any machinery, equipment or vehicle belonging to the

county, which is deemed by the board to be surplus, to a political

subdivision of the state which is in need of such machinery,

equipment or vehicle. Upon such transfer, the subject property

shall be removed from the inventory of the county.

B. The board of county commissioners shall not deem any

property to be surplus during the period when the elections of any

two county commissioners occur at the same time. This prohibition

shall only apply to the property in use by and/or recorded on the

inventory of the district of the county commissioner(s), the

elections of which are set for the same date and not the remaining

county officers. This prohibition shall cease to apply to any

property in use by and/or recorded on the inventory of the district

of any individual incumbent county commissioner who draws no

opponent or who wins reelection at either the primary or general

election. The prohibition of declaring county property or material

surplus shall:

1. Begin thirty (30) days before the filing period for the

elections of any two or more county commissioners in a county; and

2. Except as otherwise provided in this section, end the day

after two or more county commissioners are sworn in as such.

C. If two or more incumbents draw no opponents or if two or

more incumbent county commissioners both win reelection, either at

the primary, special, or general election, the prohibition of

declaring county property or material surplus until the swearing in

of county officials shall be removed and the county may dispose of

surplus property as provided in subsection A of this section.

D. When the political subdivision receiving such property

declares same to be surplus, the governing body shall give written

notice to the county of its intent to transfer such property back to

the county. The board of county commissioners shall have up to

fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of such notice to either

accept or reject the property. The political subdivision shall

transfer such property back to the county only if the board of

county commissioners agrees to accept the property or the board

fails to respond within the fifteen-day time period.
