Belton council approves plats, parade code, jail housing contract and EMS program agreements
Summary
At the meeting the council approved a rezoning, amendments to the parade code, a municipal jail housing contract, a final plat to separate a cell tower parcel, and resolutions to engage EMS billing and Medicaid‑related consulting services; most measures passed on roll call with little debate.
The Belton City Council approved several ordinance readings, a final plat and multiple resolutions during the meeting.
On final/second readings the council approved Bill 2025‑63 (rezoning of roughly 0.87 acres north of B Street from C‑2 to R‑3) and Bill 2025‑65 (amending Chapter 13, Article 12 on parades and processions). The council also approved an ordinance authorizing a municipal jail 2025 housing contract to house Lake Winnebago police inmates with the Belton Police Department (Bill number as listed in the agenda packet).
The council approved a final plat for G.E.P. Investments to split the Trans West property at 17327 S Outer Road into two lots, separating a cell tower parcel so the tower owner may hold it outright; planning commission and staff recommended approval.
Council adopted Resolution 2025‑92 to contract EMS billing services with EMS Management and Consultants, Inc.; staff said the vendor offered a reduced billing rate (5.65% versus a prior 5.95%) and integration with ImageTrend for improved dashboards and reporting. The body also approved Resolution 2025‑593, a master services agreement with Fairley Consulting Group LLC to assist with Missouri GMT (Medicaid managed care supplemental payments) reporting; staff described potential supplemental revenue between $200,000 and $400,000 annually and recommended a one‑year trial. Finally, the council approved Resolution 2025‑594 to create a travel training and economic development advisory committee to formalize policies on travel and training selections.
Most of the listed items received motions, seconds and roll call votes and passed without extended debate. Where vote tallies were read into the record they were recorded by roll call; for some consent and resolution votes the transcript records the motion, second and passage without a full roll call transcript available in the meeting text.
