Summary
Town and Country confirmed two appointments to citizen commissions, heard park-event dates, and learned of a donor pledge of more than $100,000 toward a veterans and first-responders memorial with a Nov. 11 groundbreaking planned.
At its Sept. 29 meeting, the Town and Country Board of Aldermen confirmed two citizen appointments and received routine community updates.
Mayor Mary moved to confirm Tracy (last name not specified in the transcript) to the Public Works Commission; the motion was approved and attendees thanked the appointee. The board also appointed Michael DeMarco (Ward 1) to the Police, Fire and EMS Commission. Mayor Mary and aldermen praised citizens who serve on municipal commissions.
Alderman Murphy announced a ribbon cutting at Longview Playground on Sunday, Sept. 15 (4–5 p.m.) and promoted a 'Fall Fire and Ice' event at Longview Farm Park on Oct. 5 with a band, food trucks, kids’ activities and a fireworks finale at 8 p.m. Alderman Allen told the board a Town and Country resident has pledged "well over $100,000" toward a memorial for military members and first responders and said the committee expects a groundbreaking on Nov. 11 (Veterans Day).
Other routine business included a staff update on the Hansen engineering study for a Ballast Road sidewalk (surveying and scoping are underway) and approval of the warrant list.
