Norman City Council held a public budget hearing and approved a mosque expansion and tax increment financing district ordinance during its regular meeting Tuesday night.

According to Norman City Attorney Rick Knighton, the plaintiffs submitted a motion for oral arguments and a request for additional briefing.

Knighton said if denied, the lawsuit will continue as an accelerated appeal without additional briefing, and will be resolved with the Oklahoma Supreme Court's ruling.

“There really isn’t any need for further briefing or argument,” Knighton said. “The court has what it needs to be able to make the decision.”

Notably, he guided the Sooners to a team national championship in 2017. He was named the 2018 and 2021 Big 12 coach of the year and the 2022 Dave Williams national coach of the year. 

Hybl said in a statement that he decided to join Georgia Tech to be closer to family.

The latest water intrusion inspection of Norman Public Library Central, released Friday, recorded elevated temperature and humidity levels but no active moisture intrusion in the accessible areas of the building.

The library has faced repeated water intrusion and mold issues over the past two years, and Cavins Group is contracted by the city to inspect the building’s interior following weather events.

According to the report, inspectors found no signs of active moisture intrusion in any of the areas previously affected. The report states small amounts of water were collected in several water diversion tarps, but that the tarps are functioning as intended and prevented water from impacting interior materials.
