Summary
The Board of Aldermen approved the city’s 2025 budget and adopted multiple ordinances and reappointments during a routine meeting that also addressed site-plan and conditional-use requests; one alderman recorded an abstention on the budget vote.
The Dardenne Prairie Board of Aldermen on an unspecified date approved the city’s 2025 budget and a slate of ordinances and resolutions during a regular meeting. Brad, a city staff member who read the ordinance, presented the budget ordinance titled 'An ordinance adopting the budget for the City of Darden Prairie, Missouri for the fiscal year commencing on 01/01/2025 and ending on 12/31/2025.' The board moved for a roll-call vote and the presiding officer declared the bill adopted as ordinance 2,331 after votes were recorded; Alderman Detwiler voted Aye and Coleman Caslow recorded an Abstain during the roll-call procedure. Several other aldermen recorded affirmative votes.
The meeting also completed second readings and adopted two land-use ordinances affecting property between Technology Drive and Lolli Drive (parcel ID 4-0036-4317-00-0006). Bill 2,457 (a conditional use permit and site plan) was approved and declared ordinance 2,332 following a roll call. Bill 2,458 (a site-plan approval) was similarly read by title and declared ordinance 2,333 after board members voted to adopt.
The board adopted two reappointment resolutions for the Board of Adjustment. Resolution 386 was adopted to reappoint a member whose term had expired; Resolution 387 was adopted to reappoint Matt Turner to the Board of Adjustments. Each resolution was moved, seconded, and approved by voice vote.
