OKLAHOMA CITY – Legislation allowing restaurants and school cafeterias to donate leftover food without threat of civil liability, except in certain circumstances, has been signed into law.
House Bill 1542, authored by Rep. Anthony Moore, R-Clinton, grants civil immunity to restaurants and school cafeterias donating leftover food.

Canadian County Commissioners will consider signing a letter of support to help El Reno Public Schools gain more federal funding.
It’s an issue that all three elected commissioners, Dave Anderson, Tracey Rider and Tom Manske, have discussed recently with El Reno Public Schools leaders.
“We lose at least a quarter, and maybe a third, of our school district to federal land,” ERPS Superintendent Matt Goucher said. “And we get absolutely nothing (financially) for it because of a date.”
