Florissant council approves several ordinances, transfers permits and names 12 board appointees
Summary
Councilman Tommy Siam said the council passed ordinances including an amended monopole cell-tower approval, transfers of business permits, an amendment to the alcoholic-beverage definition, and the transfer of an Exxon station; the council also authorized contracts, amended police personnel classifications and made 12 board appointments.
Florissant City Council on April 28 approved multiple ordinances and administrative actions, Councilman Tommy Siam said in a meeting summary.
Siam reported the council approved an amended permit for a monopole cell tower at 1735 Charbonneau Road, altering a previously proposed brick wall to a chain-link fence and adding a landscaping requirement. The council also approved transfers of two Subway restaurants' special-use permits (one in Surrey Plaza and one at 8444 North Lindbergh) to a new owner, and approved a transfer of ownership for the Exxon gas station at 12785 Newhouse Ferry.
The council amended the municipal definition of "alcoholic beverages," Siam said. The summary did not include the ordinance text or the specific language of the definition change; those details must be obtained from the city's ordinance file for verification.
Siam said the council passed two bills on three readings: one authorizing Mayor Lowry to sign a contract with the Lochmueller Group for right-of-way land acquisition for the STP 4901 project, and another amending the annual budget to revise the police department's personnel schedule by adding and deleting job classifications. He also said first readings were held that evening on the two public-hearing items and on a bill to add provisions for recreational fires.
The council and mayor together completed 12 board appointments across a range of bodies, Siam said, including the citizens participation committee, the landmark and historic district commission, the board of adjustment, the personnel commission and the senior commission. Siam said Councilman Harris called the number a likely record.
The meeting summary did not include vote tallies or the names of movers and seconders for the recorded actions. Where the summary referenced contracts or ordinance language, the full texts and roll-call records should be consulted for authoritative details.
Next steps: Several items advanced by first reading or were finalized according to the council summary; details and formal records are available from the city clerk for anyone seeking full ordinance text or vote records.
