Comanche County District #3 Commissioner’s Office This page is to keep citizens informed on what Comanche County District #3 is doing. One Commissioner is elected to administer each district.

We will use this page as another form of communication to alert the public of any news and projects that might effect their daily lives. We are always striving to improve our transparency and efficiency, so please contact us with any other suggestions that can help us make your understanding of what we do better. Below is a description of what the Commissioner role is from the County Web Page:

Created by the Oklahoma State Constitution, the Board of County Commissioners is composed of 3 Commissioners who are elected by the people. Comanche County is divided into 3 districts, as equal in population as possible, and numbered 1, 2, and 3. Boundaries for the districts are set once every 10 years following the Federal census.
​
Responsibilities
The Board of County Commissioners is the administrative and management entity for Comanche County. Each Commissioner administers a district, and as a Board, they are all responsible for the county as a whole. Legislation
The Board is responsible for enforcing legislation passed by the State of Oklahoma Legislature. The Board does not make its own legislation, though they can make resolutions. Administration
The Board meets publicly when transacting county business. By law, the commissioners must act as a board to: enter into contracts, make purchases, or make agreements that will affect the county. Finances
The Board is the chief fiscal entity of the county. It is in charge of receiving and expending funds, and is therefore held responsible for the following: making major financial decisions, transacting those decisions, preparing budgets, awarding contracts, and acting on claims. The Board must consider the estimated needs of each county office annually. The estimates must be published and forwarded to the Excise Board. Management
The Board is also responsible for investigating the performance of all county offices. This includes the proper handling of county funds. The Board can audit the accounts of all county officers who receive, manage, or distribute county funds. The Board can lawfully take action against an officer found delinquent in his/her duties. Development
The Board advertises for bids and approves contracts for major purchases or construction projects within the county. State law allows the Board to incur indebtedness in the name of the county when necessary. Commissioners are empowered to call county bond issue elections when necessary for county projects. Meetings
The Board meets every Monday at 9:00 a.m. in Room 302 of the Comanche County Courthouse, except on holidays or on special occasions. All sessions are open to the public and held in observance of the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act.
​
Many other duties and functions are performed by county commissioners due to specific needs, which vary from county to county. Permissive legislation provides the basis for these additional duties and functions.

Today marks 1 year since Artillery Ridge Services LLC donated a full bridge deck overlay on the historic Pecan Creek Bridge on West Cache Road - originally built in the 1930's.

All of the old asphalt was removed and the Hybrid Polymer Concrete (HPC) was installed. We have the honor of saying this was the first time HPC was applied to a bridge deck in the State of Oklahoma.

As such, we are happy to share that there have not been any signs of damage, wear, or failure and we are very pleased with the outcome and performance. Artillery Ridge Services LLC fully expects the deck to require minimal, if any maintenance for the rest of its service life or until it is replaced.

Thank you again for all those who partnered with us to see this project fulfilled!

PLANNING TO BURN BRUSH? KNOW BEFORE YOU BURN!

The Comanche County Burn Ban expired on October 19, 2026. While there is currently NO countywide burn ban in effect, residents should continue practicing responsible outdoor burning.

BEFORE YOU BURN:

Notify Non-Emergency Dispatch: (580) 581-3272. Provide your name, address, and location of the planned burn. This helps dispatch identify controlled burns if smoke is reported.

Check Weather Conditions: Avoid burning during windy conditions, elevated fire danger, or when an ozone or particulate matter alert is in effect.

Prepare Your Burn Area: Clear combustible vegetation around your brush pile to establish a firebreak. Keep water, shovels, and other firefighting equipment readily available.

Follow Burning Hours: Under Oklahoma DEQ regulations, burning must begin no earlier than three hours after sunrise and no later than three hours before sunset.

Burn Only Permitted Materials: Brush, limbs, and other allowable vegetation generated on your property may generally be burned. Never burn tires, plastics, treated lumber, or other prohibited materials.

Never Leave a Fire Unattended: Maintain control of your burn and ensure all flames and embers are completely extinguished before leaving.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS:

Smoke must not create hazards for nearby roadways or surrounding properties.

Municipalities may have additional restrictions or permit requirements.

Property owners may be held responsible for damages caused by escaped fires.

Even without a burn ban, conditions may be too dangerous for outdoor burning.

If your fire escapes or becomes uncontrollable, call 911 immediately!

🌾 HELP US KEEP COMANCHE COUNTY DISTRICT #3 BEAUTIFUL! 🌾

Over the weekend, we discovered several areas throughout Comanche County District #3 where trash and unwanted materials had been illegally dumped along our county roads.

Illegal dumping is not just an eyesore — it creates serious safety hazards. Debris can block roadside drainage ditches,and leave behind dangerous materials such as nails, broken boards, and other objects that can damage vehicle tires or put motorists at risk. Some dumped materials may even contain hazardous chemicals.

We ask everyone to please dispose of unwanted materials properly rather than using our county roads and ditches as dumping grounds.

If you see someone illegally dumping trash, please report it to the proper authorities. Your awareness and willingness to speak up can help protect our roads, our residents, and our beautiful countryside.

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the courage and sacrifice of the first responders, service members, and everyday Americans who answered the call in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

We remember those who never made it home, the families whose lives were forever changed, and the men and women who ran toward danger to help others.

Twenty-five years later, may we continue to carry forward the spirit of unity, compassion, courage, and service that brought our nation together in the days that followed.

We will never forget the day that changed our lives and this country forever.

EXTREME DROUGHT: TAKE ACTION NOW (part 1of 4)

Comanche County is experiencing EXTREME DROUGHT CONDITIONS.

Grass, brush, and trees are extremely dry and readily ignitable. A fire that starts under these conditions can spread rapidly and become difficult to control.

Do not wait until you see smoke on the horizon to prepare your property.

Today, walk around your home and ask:

🔥 What can burn?
🔥 What could carry fire toward my home?
🔥 What can I remove, move, trim, or separate?

Every homeowner and property owner can take steps right now to reduce wildfire risk.

Wildfire preparedness starts before the fire starts.

DAY 2 — START AT YOUR HOUSE

🏠🔥 START CLOSE. WORK OUTWARD.

When wildfire threatens, the condition of the area immediately surrounding your home can make a major difference.

Take a few minutes today to:

• Remove dead leaves, grass, and vegetation next to your home
• Clean debris from roofs and gutters
• Clear vegetation from beneath decks and porches
• Move firewood, lumber, patio cushions, and other combustible materials away from structures
• Trim vegetation touching or overhanging your home

The goal is simple: make it harder for fire to reach your house.

Start at the structure and work outward.

- Clean it up. Clear it out. Create separation.

DAY 3 — GIVE FIREFIGHTERS SOMETHING TO DEFEND

🚒🔥 CAN FIREFIGHTERS DEFEND YOUR HOME?

During a fast-moving wildfire, firefighters may have only minutes to evaluate a property.

Help improve the chances that your home can be safely defended.

Today, look beyond the immediate area around your house:

• Remove dead limbs and accumulated brush
• Clear vegetation beneath trees
• Maintain separation between heavy vegetation and structures
• Clear around sheds, barns, fences, and propane tanks
• Reduce continuous vegetation that could carry fire across your property

You may not be able to remove every wildfire risk—but you can reduce the fuel available to a fire.

🔥 Create defensible space. Give firefighters something they can defend.

DAY 4 — DON’T START THE NEXT FIRE

- EXTREME DROUGHT MEANS EXTREME CAUTION

While cleaning up your property, do not create another ignition.

Under our current conditions, a single spark can ignite dry grass or vegetation.

Use extreme caution with:

• Mowers and other power equipment
• Vehicles parked or driven through dry grass
• Trailer chains dragging on pavement
• Welding and grinding
• Outdoor burning
• Any activity capable of producing heat or sparks

Dry brush and vegetation can support dangerous fire behavior—especially when combined with wind and terrain.

Preventing a wildfire is far easier than stopping one.

- One spark is all it takes. Be the reason a fire DOESN’T start.
