Florissant council adopts morning left-turn ban, approves five property contracts and a flood reimbursement; one restaurant ordinance dies
Summary
The council adopted an ordinance banning certain morning left turns on Shackleford and related streets (7–9 a.m.), approved five ordinances permitting facility studies and contracts for city properties and authorized reimbursement from the Metropolitan Sewer District for Bruce Drive flood buyout costs; an ordinance for Happy Cups LLC failed for lack of a third reading.
At a meeting recap Councilman Tom O'Donnell said the council adopted an ordinance amending Title 3 of the Florissant City code to prohibit left turns from Shackleford onto Jenke and prohibit left turns on Mollering, Shirley and Miller during morning peak hours from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. He said that ordinance received the necessary second and third readings and was approved.
O'Donnell also said five measures related to city-owned properties were presented with all three readings and approved. Those included an ordinance authorizing the mayor to enter a master service agreement with Navigate Building Solutions to perform facility studies for public works and an animal-control building; ordinances authorizing contracts with Richard Ette Floor Covering for James J. Egan Center lobby flooring, with Custom Tree Care LLC for tree removal in the Willow Creek subdivision, and with John Beale Roofing to replace the roof and upgrade gutters at the Florissant Golf Course Clubhouse; and an ordinance authorizing reimbursement from the Metropolitan Sewer District to cover city costs tied to the Bruce Drive flood buyout project.
By contrast, a substitute ordinance for John Bonds (Happy Cups LLC) seeking a quick-service restaurant location in Patterson Plaza received a second reading but "did not get enough votes to have a third reading" and "subsequently died for lack of a 3rd reading," O'Donnell said. No vote tallies were recorded in the recap.
The actions taken will become ordinances and contracts were authorized as described; council minutes or the official ordinance records will show the formal vote tallies and effective dates.
