The Grain Valley Board of Aldermen met on Monday, August 26th for their second regularly scheduled meeting of the month. The meeting began with a proclamation recognizing the 10th anniversary of Valley Baptist Church. Following the proclamation, the board moved into ordinances. The only item under ordinances was a bill that would prohibit parking on the south side of James D. Rollo Drive. Grain Valley Police Chief Ed Turner explained that the road is marked for no parking, but it was found that there are no city ordinances to enforce it. The proposed ordinance would remedy this oversight. This bill was approved on its first read, then brought back right away for its second read by title only where it was passed unanimously. During City staff reports, Parks and Recreation Director Shannon Davies noted that the 2024 city pool season is wrapping up with Labor Day just ahead. City Administrator Ken Murphy shared the Downtown Grain Valley organization is hosting a homecoming pep rally at the community garden to be held on September 18th. Murphy said that one of the things that the group wishes to have at the event is a food truck and board policy dictates that the board must approve a food truck to be on city property. A motion was made to allow the food truck, and it was approved. Mayor Mike Todd reminded the board and the public about the Grain Valley Fair taking place on September 6 and 7. The Board then moved into executive session and the meeting was adjourned. The next Board of Aldermen meeting will take place at 6:30pm on Monday, September 9th at City Hall. Comments are closed.
