Business district to request $6,000 for supplies, approves annual report
Summary
The commission updated its annual report and approved a motion to request $6,000 from council to fund supplies and networking coffees for the year; members reported about $2,500–3,000 spent so far and approved repeating the $6,000 request.
The Webster Groves Business District Commission reviewed its annual report draft and voted to request $6,000 from the council to cover supplies and networking coffees for the year.
Chair (Speaker 1) said the worksheet shows the commission was awarded $6,000 for the year and reported roughly $2,500–3,000 spent to date, including the January after-hours cost ($360). "So I would propose that we would request $6,000 again," the chair said; Speaker 4 seconded the motion and the commission voted in favor. No opposed votes were recorded during the voice vote taken in the meeting.
Members also discussed minor administrative items that will appear in the annual report: name-tag badges for board members (Jordan to coordinate), the timing for publishing required subcommittee agendas and minutes (24-hour posting on the city's website), and how to present event budgets (e.g., gazebo series vs. fall festival) in future budget requests.
Direction: staff will finalize the annual report reflecting the $6,000 budget request and return the document for any final changes prior to routing to the city council.
