— Mayes County commissioners opened bids on signs for the Mayes County Emergency Management grant at the meeting Monday. The “turn around, don’t drown” signs are to be placed in troublesome flood areas throughout Mayes County.

Bids came from Oklahoma Correctional Inustries, at $10,050 for 100 signs, Advances Workzone Services, at $5,850 for 100 signs, ROCAL Inc., at 25 signs for $996.75 and Custom Products Corporation, at $40.32 per sign.  

The commissioners tabled the bids until the next meeting so more research could be done concerning the offiers.

• Tabled the bid of $500 for a 1991 Ford F25 flat bed truck the Disney Fire Department is selling.
