The Board of Aldermen met January 23rd, approving ballot language for the April 4th municipal election asking voters to approve a sales tax of 3% on recreational marijuana sales, and worked through a series of resolutions and ordinances.
Following a public hearing, the Board approved the voluntary annexation of two properties. Tract 1, owned by Dale and Teresa Smith is located at 4112 S Buckner Tarsney Road, and tract 2, owned by The Road Church, 4108 S Buckner Tarsney Road, were a part of the annexation. Also considered following a public hearing was the creation of a Community Improvement District for Creekside Village, to fund private street maintenance costs. Following a 3-3 tie, Mayor Todd made the tiebreaking vote to approve the first reading of the ordinance. The Board also approved the first reading of an ordinance to approve the final development plan for Copper Creek, formerly known as The Lofts at Creekside Landing and final plat approval for the Lofts at Creekside Landing. Alderman Arnold continued to express opposition to the project and was the lone no vote. Several purchases were approved through resolutions, including the replacement of existing computer desktops, laptops, monitors and equipment, per the Computer Equipment Replacement Program (CERP), the purchase of a John Deere commercial mower for the Parks Department, two trucks for Community Development and Public Works, and a message sign for Public Works to use in work zones and special events. In other business, the Board approved a resolution to contract with Grain Valley Assistance Council to coordinate the Home Delivered Meals Program. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Aldermen will be held at City Hall on Monday, February 13, 2023 at 7:00pm. Comments are closed.
