Votes at a glance: St. Clair aldermen approve engineering, TAP supplemental, sanitation contract and rezoning
Summary
At the Jan. 20 meeting the Board approved four bills introduced for first and second reading by title: an engineering agreement for Springfield Road (Bill 2025-01 → Ord. No. 2196), a Walton/Jean TAP supplemental (Bill 2025-02 → ordinance number recorded in transcript), the Swinger Sanitation contract (Bill 2025-03 → Ord. No. 2198), and rezoning Springfield Estates (Bill 2025-04 → Ord. No. 2199). The board also approved destruction of listed police records.
The Board of Aldermen voted on multiple ordinances and routine actions at its Jan. 20 meeting:
• Springfield Road engineering services (Bill 2025-01): The board introduced and approved an ordinance authorizing the mayor to contract with C Engineering for administrative and engineering services related to the Springfield Road resurfacing grant project; the motion carried and the transcript records the bill became Ordinance No. 2196.
• Walton/Jean TAP project supplemental (Bill 2025-02): Council introduced a supplemental agreement to cover newly required archaeological work on the Walton/Jean TAP sidewalk project. Staff said the additional cost was already included in the budget. The board approved the bill; the transcript records the bill became an ordinance but the ordinance number is unclear in the recording.
• Solid-waste agreement with Swinger Sanitation (Bill 2025-03): After staff recommendation and discussion, the board approved the five-year residential and commercial non-dumpster agreement with Swinger Sanitation. The bill became Ordinance No. 2198.
• Rezoning — Springfield Estates (Bill 2025-04): The board approved rezoning for Springfield Estates at 485 West Springfield Road from R1B to R3; the bill became Ordinance No. 2199.
• Destruction of police records: The board approved a motion to destroy police records from selected years (the packet lists years that staff cited: 2000, 2007 and 2015). The transcript records a motion, second and "motion carries," but it does not include a roll-call tally for these votes.
The meeting record indicates each bill was read by title for first and second reading and then approved; the transcript consistently shows "motion carries" but does not provide full roll-call vote tallies or named movers and seconders for each vote in the recorded segments.
