St. Louis County Council approves multiple ordinances and funding measures; vote tallies given
Summary
At its Sept. 30 meeting the St. Louis County Council adopted substitute Bill 1 for Bill 211 (accepting up to $100,000 from Great Rivers Greenway and appropriating county funds), and voted final passage on Bills 206, 207, 208 and 210; most votes were recorded as five ayes and two absent.
The St. Louis County Council on Sept. 30 voted to adopt a substitute ordinance allowing the county to accept grant funding and to approve several final-passage ordinances.
Councilwoman Webb moved adoption of Substitute Bill 1 for Bill 211, an ordinance authorizing the County Executive to accept up to $100,000 from the Metropolitan Park and Recreation District (doing business as Great Rivers Greenway), appropriate matching county funds (approximately $110,000 in county funds cited during the reading) to support a Great Streets Initiative grant administered by the East-West Gateway Council of Governments, and authorize county staff to execute necessary documents. The substitute bill was adopted by voice vote, and later perfected in committee and on the floor.
The council also took final passage votes on multiple bills. Clerk roll calls show Bills 206, 207, 208 and 210 were each announced as "finally passed" with the clerk reporting five ayes and two absent for each vote. The transcript records roll calls and aye responses but does not attribute each aye to individual council members when the clerk summarized the tally.
Several other bills were held for future consideration; members announced a committee-of-the-whole process to review procurement chapter revisions.
The council did not provide full textual detail for every ordinance in the public record during the meeting; staff follow-up or the published ordinance texts will provide the formal language and implementation dates.
