Good morning, Broken Arrow.

Rooster Days Festival returns to Broken Arrow from May 15 to May 18 — marking its 94th year as Oklahoma’s longest-running festival — and offers over 100 vendors, food trucks, local entertainment, carnival rides, and a Kids Activity Zone.

The event is hosted by the Broken Arrow Chamber of Commerce and sponsored by TTCU Federal Credit Union — it features a fun run, parade, and free admission.

A major gas leak forced officials to close Washington Street between 5th and 9th Streets and order residents living south of the street starting at 7th Street to evacuate immediately — the disruption affects areas from 91st and 173rd to 177th East Avenue.

Crews responded to multiple emergencies in Broken Arrow—evacuations near 91st and Lynn Lane followed a gas leak on Thursday, a gas line break near 51st and County Line occurred yesterday, and a waterline break near the Lowe’s today caused traffic delays.

Broken Arrow businesses received more than $1.12 million in funding from the Oklahoma Innovation Expansion Program—managed by the Department of Commerce—to boost innovation and create new local jobs.

Empire Laser and Metal Work will use its share to buy new equipment for complex projects while local economic development leaders expect further growth.

The Oklahoma Senate passed Senate Bill 745 that extends the high school completion age from 26 to 30 and requires adults aged 21 to 30 to finish their studies through full-time virtual programs.

Senator Christi Gillespie—a Broken Arrow lawmaker—said the bill has strong bipartisan support and now awaits the governor’s signature.
