A familiar face in the Mustang real estate market is changing, with the merger of Marolyn Pryor Realtors with two Coldwell Banker agencies.

The merger will bring together about 750 realtors, Marolyn Pryor said, and brings a “new level of technology to our office.”

Pryor joined Tulsa-based Rader Group and agent Terry Gartside, who services Bixby, Jenks, Sapulpa and Sand Springs, Pryor said. Altogether, the group will comprise 20 offices, which she said is the largest real estate entity in Oklahoma.

Union City firefighters moved closer to breaking ground on a new station after one year of “hurry up and wait.”

As fuel prices climbed, construction costs and the price of steel skyrocketed as much as 30 percent, Volunteer Fire Chief Darrel Wilkerson said, causing officials to look closer at their fire station plans.

Instead of building the entire 7,000-square-foot facility with $220,000, Wilkerson said they learned it would now cost them $279,000 to just build the shell.
