In November 2006 Keith Jackson, City Councilman for Ward 4 said on Lawton Politics "I attempted to stop this at the Council meeting Tuesday night. I too think this is a scam...the taxpayers are going to be the real losers here ...and not for just a short time but for a long time to come. Can you selin a piece of prime city property and then selling to someone who will turn around and rent it back to you?? I suggest you call your own councilman to stop this....Keith"

It looks like a little over a year later Keith Jackson has changed his mind over the sale of city property to then be leased back to the city. In an item that passed last night by the CITY TRANSIT TRUST, which is also the City Council, passed the sale of the property. We are looking further into this issue, but over a year ago Keith Jackson was not in favor of this, and now he is. He has said in the past to look at his voting record. Look at his voting record on the night of Dec. 12th 2007 City transit trust. Tell us what you think.
