Councilmembers asked general questions about floodplain maps and flood
insurance. Mr. Binger provided explanation and addressed their questions.
6. Roundtable
Councilmember Prier asked if there has been any discussion about other cities
or counties sharing the cost in relocating Missouri State Highway Patrol, since
Troop A covers several counties. Mr. Park, Director of Public Works, advised
he was not aware of any conversations in that regard. He added that when the
City came to an agreement with the Office of Administration for the relocation
of Troop A the City set a cap for its financial contribution. Therefore, any
monies above that are the State’s responsibility and Troop A has indicated that
it has the funding to relocate. The State is still seeking additional funds for its
firing range.
Mr. Park informed the Committee that there is a Public Meeting for the M-291
Hwy & US-50 Hwy north interchange and outer road relocation, scheduled for
October 3, 2023, 4:30-7:00 p.m., at City Hall Council Chambers. Additionally,
Committee members should have received an invite from The Chamber of
Commerce to attend the ribbon cutting for the processing facility at the
Resource Recovery Park, on September 28, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. Finally, Mr. Park
reminded everyone that this week is the Snow Rodeo and there is still
opportunity to join.
Chairman DeMoro announced that the next Public Works Committee meeting is
scheduled for October 9, 2023, at 4:30 p.m.
