Counties Sue To Halt Refuge Plan At Texoma
Three southern Oklahoma counties backed by Love Johnston and Marshall county schools boards sue to stop a wildlife refuge on flood control land near Lake Texhoma. They argue the plan cuts lease payments from the U S Corps and Wildlife Department, harming county funds and alleging inadequate notice of the agreement. Plaintiffs include county commissioners, education boards, the Love County Sheriff, state auditor, and former governor Raymond Gary.
