Finance staff (Jessica Pyle) said the marijuana tax — the additional 3% sales tax approved by voters and collected starting October 2023 — contributed to increases compared with the prior year, when the city had only two months of collections for that tax. Franchise-tax receipts included a $377,000 settlement payment received in April 2023; natural-gas receipts were down about 25.5% for the fiscal year.

For the current fiscal year reporting period (one month of April deposits for February sales), staff reported a $58,000 increase (3.8%) year‑to‑date, which is roughly $3,000 below the 4% budgeted increase.

Separately, the finance department asked the council to authorize destruction of records that have met the Missouri Secretary of State Local Government Records Management retention period. Council approved the request on voice vote with no recorded opposition. The staff memo presented to council identified the records as meeting or exceeding required retention periods and eligible for destruction in accordance with state guidance; no specific file names or quantities were read into the public record during the meeting.

Council members asked no follow‑up questions on the record beyond a general invitation to request further information if needed. No changes to the revenue forecast or budget were adopted in this session.","Finance staff told the council net sales and use tax is up about $1,000,000, or 5.4% year‑to‑date, exceeding the budgeted 4% increase.

Under the terms presented to the council, Sedalia will reimburse Holland Holding Company LLC for up to $525,000 in certified infrastructure construction costs, to be paid over a 10-year period. The city will directly supply materials and labor for paving Mill Street and will supply the light fixtures; installation will be performed by the developer.

City staff said the improvements support the broader redevelopment of a formerly underutilized property that will include the Boys & Girls Club West Central Missouri, future residential apartments and nonprofit service facilities. The work is intended to extend the downtown streetscape and address longstanding drainage issues along South Mill Street.

Council discussion was not recorded in detail; the mayor called for readings and a roll-call final passage vote produced 7 yes votes, 1 absent. The agreement was entered as Bill 2025-79 and approved for final passage.

No construction schedule, reimbursement schedule beyond the 10-year cap, nor county or state approvals were specified in the meeting record. Staff indicated the work is tied to the developer’s private redevelopment timeline and to city budgeting decisions made during the FY26 planning process.","The council approved an infrastructure development agreement with Holland Holding Company LLC to support redevelopment near East Third Street.

The ordinance, described to the council as establishing clearer guidelines for public participation, designates meetings as limited public forums, provides a designated free-speech zone for political expression, and outlines expectations and procedures for public comment and handling disruptions.

Council members heard no substantive debate before voting. The mayor called for the second reading and the final passage, and the clerk recorded the roll call: 7 yes votes, 1 absent. The ordinance text as read to the council states the rules are intended to “enhance structure, ensure safety, and support the orderly conduct of city business.”

Supporters on the dais said the change was intended to promote orderly meetings while preserving opportunities for public input; no council member requested amendments during the readings and final passage.

The ordinance will be incorporated into the City Code and apply to future Sedalia meetings where the public comment rules are enforced.

No appeals, referenda, or implementation dates were specified in the meeting record.","The Sedalia City Council on a 7-0 roll call (one absent) adopted Bill 2025-72 to amend the city code on public participation, designating meetings as limited public forums and creating a designated free-speech zone and procedures for managing disruptions.","actionData","errors"]
