Kingfisher County commissioners approved the plat of Cashion Estates at their weekly meeting Monday.

The housing development planned one mile north of present Cashion town limits will contain 90 residential lots, according to the plat signed by commissioners.

Commission Chairman Jeff Moss produced a letter from developers stating that no financial involvement will be required from the county; developers will foot all the cost of bringing utilities to the addition.

The site lays north of EW 830 Road west of S.H. 74F.

Commissioners tabled action on the purchase of two wildland fire fighting units for the Omega Fire Department, awaiting approval by the district attorney’s office, bids on the conversion of a military vehicle into a heavy brush truck for the Loyal Fire Department to allow study and the sale of a surplus 2003 Chevrolet 3500 fire truck belonging to Loyal Fire Department on which no bids were received.

Bids received on the Loyal brush truck conversion included: $90,142.25 from Northwest Fabrication, $112,750 from Steel and Fire, $168,000 from Hughes Fabrication and $181,000 from J and J Construction.
