The board approved a motion to table the ordinance so staff and the shelter’s counsel can resolve outstanding contract edits. No changes to the proposed contract were adopted at Thursday’s meeting.

Possibly 2,\" Dinsdale said. He also reported that the new point-of-sale system is live at both airports and that he now plans to add a desktop and monitor dedicated to the system at each terminal.

Board members focused on the age and condition of the airport refueler fleet. Alderman Recker delivered an extended appeal to prioritize refueler replacement, saying many of the city’s fuel trucks date to the 1980s and that unreliable trucks can deter pilots and reduce fuel sales. \"If I was a pilot and I pulled into that airport and I seen the age of those trucks, I wouldn't dare wanna put fuel in my plane that my livelihood depended upon,\" Recker said. He urged buying used refueler trucks now to jump-start a fleet replacement program rather than waiting to purchase new models.

Dinsdale said replacement is long overdue and provided operational context: the city should have two refuelers at each airport — one for avgas and one for jet fuel — for a total of four. He said airport purchases in prior years included used units and that refueler lifespans can run 15–20 years. \"We're you should have 2 at each airport... So we should have 4 total,\" he said.

Aldermen discussed fiscal trade-offs. Purchasing used refuelers could allow the city to accelerate fleet turnover; staff estimates for new refuelers are significantly higher. Dinsdale and other staff also asked to buy vending machines (about $5,000 per airport in staff estimates) and dedicated desktop POS stations for reliability and accounting reconciliation. Dinsdale said vending services have failed in the past under private leases and that city-owned machines could provide more reliable service.

Separately, City Administrator Devon Lake reported that state agencies had extended timelines for two airport-related grants, preserving roughly $230,000 in expected reimbursements for the airport master plan and allowing the city more time to award construction and professional contracts. Lake said the extensions were required to keep existing grants active and thanked staff who handled the work.

Board members asked staff to include details in upcoming budget workshops, such as projected lifespans, repair history and whether cost estimates were for new or used trucks. Alderman Osteen asked that department heads include IT and maintenance input on line-item estimates in future budget materials so aldermen have comparable information when weighing replacements.","Airport manager said both city airports are live on a new point-of-sale system and requested funding for refueler trucks, desktop POS terminals and vending machines; aldermen pressed for fleet replacement and discussed buying used refuelers to accelerate upgrades.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6128978,"Osage Beach aldermen remove 200-foot restriction on food trucks in first reading; debate centers on fairness and sales-tax compliance",1141,3309000,4450000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5749598-778b8d15fe1d2156be6c5b497e8824c0&start=3309&end=4450","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5749598-778b8d15fe1d2156be6c5b497e8824c0/thumbnail_3309000.jpg","/articles/6128978/Osage-Beach/Camden-County/Missouri/Osage-Beach-aldermen-remove-200-foot-restriction-on-food-trucks-in-first-reading-debate-centers-on-fairness-and-sales-tax-compliance","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6128978-16a4a49bff949e0634d8e2c0d3091a3c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771136112&Signature=J~mq2rtdcpzhL7Nta3zlTKfQ12aaQWASGw2MFrhOO5ayPWODWePXvb95YCxLWXEDKZ6OsjuH8izZ5bIiCAZGMiy0hoyprIQCKKY4hFTN-RshZPPl2aU9zuBxqQRKpEoTqQ5Th5WxkaXFPiXC8uFpDHmcowa1fMIaeuaEiiCluYRmRfiqKIqxBPxx2OPAJ0Hy8dX6RtUw5WIPdiAPCZ0YXMtVohNdLufPgQDYTLoIVcAYzspoUWgFlFbWpoG7JzSeduedoewFY~wbu-QyZiH9QWWKgGX0MKpqAt1kgzzC42EBlp9o0t9eKGiXV6CdAFfOUDt5W1jeOVSxEA3Ttwh1xg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Aldermen voted Thursday to approve first reading of an amendment to Chapter 610 of the city code that removes a distance-based restriction for food trucks. The bill (25-81) would change the city’s rules for mobile food vendors and was debated at length before a roll-call vote.

Alderman Kevin Rucker argued the ordinance provision as written discriminated against mobile vendors. \"We are discriminating, in my opinion, against a class of business that's in our town or wants to be in our town because we are putting regulations against them that we don't put against any other business,\" Rucker said. Alderman Oliver Osteen said he concurred, adding he had “always been opposed to the distance requirements” and felt the rule constrained fair competition.

Other aldermen stressed protecting established, year-round businesses. \"We owe a loyalty to permanent businesses,\" Alderman Collins said, describing the tension between established restaurants and transient vendors and suggesting a broader policy approach — such as designated vendor areas or permits tied to events — might be preferable to an immediate repeal.

A recurring practical concern during the debate was sales-tax compliance for transient vendors. Board members and staff recalled a past multi-truck event where most vendors did not remit city sales tax. \"Out of all — I think there was 32 — only 2 food trucks paid their sales tax,\" a transcript of the meeting records in the discussion. That history underpinned some aldermen’s reluctance to remove restrictions without a fuller plan to ensure tax collection.

Supporters of the change said the existing ordinance created inconsistent treatment: many other transient vendors — such as peddlers, farm vendors or seasonal sellers — are not subject to the same distance rule. Alderman Rucker said the amendment seeks to put mobile food businesses on the same footing as other street vendors.

The ordinance passed first reading on a roll-call vote. Several aldermen asked staff to return with a comprehensive approach for transient vendors — including sales-tax compliance, health-inspection requirements and a possible permitting path for special events or vendor gardens — before considering final passage.

The meeting transcript shows the distance provision originated as a recommendation from a citizen advisory committee; several board members noted the committee included local business owners who at one time supported a distance rule that could be waived by neighboring property owners. The first reading does not change state health-inspection requirements, and aldermen said the city will continue to require vendors to hold any state licenses or health approvals needed to operate.

The bill will return for a second reading at a future meeting with any staff recommendations for implementation and compliance.","The Board of Aldermen voted to approve first reading of an amendment to the city’s peddlers and solicitors code removing a 200-foot spacing requirement for food trucks. Aldermen debated the provision’s fairness to brick-and-mortar businesses and persistent challenges collecting sales tax from transient vendors.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6128983,"Osage Beach parks director outlines $256,500 capital list; board OKs outreach for new Peenic Park playground",3951,1463000,5414000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5749598-778b8d15fe1d2156be6c5b497e8824c0&start=1463&end=5414","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5749598-778b8d15fe1d2156be6c5b497e8824c0/thumbnail_1463000.jpg","/articles/6128983/Osage-Beach/Camden-County/Missouri/Osage-Beach-parks-director-outlines-256500-capital-list-board-OKs-outreach-for-new-Peenic-Park-playground","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6128983-7f6a0805b143ca680099a6a09caf36b3/orig.mp4?Expires=1771136112&Signature=gIqQLAgrZSVpNOBGos-Ng42RjnBdkJF0zwa69Z4yxoghMevHICW-X9X6RVCsVrxvZARuIs-5rZZPRfE~yCenCd1y5SfajB~wEa7TgI2dstGwFOGIn7pWMlKaicUe6uzSThj-CpTmF70-JEv3YQV112GHHOs-743o5cS5XczZTLmXBSg1KJ~2TBWVNx29Roa4oquRLvw~pTuh328Udyi5DmqPOx80cqGchJUri0dMHT9IBRtk8DNsuces3KvggGgPB73-PO4-TxuyQt3jmCAhNjNGaVbz6rTBS1lMMrG49sgimz3BQJf46bivrQD5UBnBgE36qPAsQJQXw6l-1~Ujdw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Harry Gregory, parks operations manager for the City of Osage Beach, told the Board of Aldermen on Thursday that parks staff will seek bids and public input on several proposed capital items and requested permission to pursue a new playground at Peenic Park. \"I do plan on putting the Peenic Park Pavilion on the, as my number 1,\" Gregory said, and later reported that \"year to date, we've had 39,000 people use the dog park.\" Gregory said his list of likely capital requests totals about $256,500 but is subject to change as bids arrive.

The board’s action focused on one of Gregory’s items: replacing the 1997-age 5–12 playground at Peenic Park. Gregory said the city removed the old playground three years ago because the manufacturer was out of business and replacement parts were not available. He proposed dedicating roughly $200,000 of savings from recent park work to procure a new 5–12 playground with some inclusive features and asked the board to authorize community outreach and competitive bids.

Aldermen asked questions about features and site needs during the presentation. Alderman Recker asked whether a dog water fountain could be added at the dog park; Gregory said frost-free spigots are already at the dog-park entrance and such amenities could be added later. Alderman Collins raised safety questions about traffic at the lakefront parking area and asked whether speed bumps or a partial fence should be considered; Gregory said he could obtain quotes and recommended addressing parking-lot speeds first. Alderman Rose asked whether playground elements would be stored and whether the city had space for holiday-light displays; Gregory said storage exists at the Public Works building and that staff had surplus some older light displays.

After discussion, the board voted to direct parks staff to proceed with research and community outreach to determine playground equipment improvements at Peenic Park. Alderman Rucker moved the directive and Alderman Collins seconded; the motion passed on a roll call vote. The board did not approve any purchase or contract at Thursday’s meeting; staff said a follow-up vote would be required to accept bids or sign contracts.

Gregory also summarized other proposed capital spending under consideration: a precast flushing bathroom at the dog park, an additional Toro Workman utility vehicle (the current machine is nearly 10 years old), more surveillance cameras at City Park (with potential relocation of some existing cameras), upgraded electrical pedestals and new holiday light displays for City Park, chip-sealing a lakefront road segment if drainage work is completed, a batting cage at City Park, replacement picnic tables, and another carport to protect maintenance equipment.

Gregory said the dog park is the city’s most-used amenity at City Park, with over 6,000 users in each of June and July; he described the flushing bathroom as a higher-quality replacement for the current portable toilet. He said the parks department would solicit multiple bids, narrow vendors to a short list and then seek public input before returning to the board with recommended contracts and costs.

The board’s approval was for staff to proceed with outreach and bid solicitation only; any spending would require later board action.","Parks staff presented a draft FY2026 capital list including a flushing bathroom at the dog park, new utility vehicle, surveillance cameras and a $200,000 playground proposal for Peenic Park. The board voted to direct staff to do community outreach and solicit bids for a playground design and cost estimate.","actionData","errors"]
