OKLAHOMA CITY -
From the political fight for the funding to the final touches, the Capitol renovations have taken almost a decade. Now they are finally nearly complete just in time for the next legislative session.
“The rotunda’s my favorite part, just looking up at the ceilings and the state seal and it’s just beautiful,” said Governor Kevin Stitt who gave News 9’s Kelly Ogle an exclusive tour of the renovations. “It’s the people’s house. It just kind of takes your breath away every time you come into the building.”
Legislators battled for years trying to pass the bonds to pay for the repairs. Construction began in 2015 and cost $280 million.
Finding The Perfect Christmas Tree Is A Family Affair
For Kelly Ogle and his family, the Martinbird Tree Farm in Tuttle has been a holiday tradition for decades. Bob Martin has owned the farm for 33 years and Kelly and his family has been coming for 26 of those.
“Most of them weren’t even here when they started coming,” said Martin. “We’ve seen the kids grow up and what a great family. And every year, through snowstorms and everything else we always find a tree and always enjoy having them.”
The crew keeps growing it seems by the year.
“Where’s our Christmas Tree,” granddaughter Millie yelled this time as she went running in search for the tree.
