Mead voters approved a 25-year franchise with OG&E to provide electricity to the town during an election last week.
A total of eight residents voted in the election and the community has 119 registered voters, according to the Bryan County Election Board.
According to the Bryan County Election Board, seven ballots were cast in favor of the franchise and there was one that was opposed.
The proposition granted Oklahoma Gas and Electric the right to produce, transmit and distribute electricity within the town and to sell electricity therein for all purposes for which it may be used to the town, its residents and the public, plus the right to construct, maintain and operate a system of poles, wires, conduits and other facilities and equipment on streets, alleys and public grounds.
Trustees for The Town of Mead approved an ordinance for the election last April.
