Ferrelview trustees approve ordinance with asphalt contractor, shift funds to parks, reappoint trustees and authorize $1,000 sign
Summary
At its May 12, 2026 regular session the Village of Ferrelview Board of Trustees adopted Ordinance 397 to authorize a cooperative agreement with Superior Bowen Asphalt Company, approved Resolution R2026-02 to move general revenue into parks and recreation, reappointed incumbents due to no certified election results, and authorized a City Hall sign up to $1,000.
Chairman Elizabeth Damm called the Village of Ferrelview Board of Trustees to order at 5:31 p.m. on May 12, 2026 and the board quickly moved through routine business before approving several formal measures.
The board unanimously approved Bill No. 2026-04, an ordinance authorizing execution of a cooperative agreement between the Village of Ferrelview and Superior Bowen Asphalt Company, LLC; the ordinance was designated as Ordinance 397 following the vote. Grant Lewton moved to approve the bill and Mathew Damm seconded. The roll call vote recorded Elizabeth Damm, Mathew Damm and Grant Lewton voting aye; the motion carried 3-0-0-0.
The trustees next approved Resolution R2026-02, a proposal to realign funds from the 2026 general revenue fund to increase budgeted parks and recreation expenditures. Mathew Damm moved to approve the resolution; Elizabeth Damm seconded. Roll call again was three ayes and the resolution carried 3-0-0-0.
On a separate procurement item, City Administrator April Baxter presented a final design proposal from Slick Steel Sign Company, LLC for a new City Hall sign. Grant Lewton moved to grant Notice to Proceed for the sign order, not to exceed $1,000; Elizabeth Damm seconded. The board voted 3-0-0-0 to authorize the expenditure.
The agenda included a proposed address change for 100 3rd Street requested by resident Kevin Stanley; Mr. Stanley was not present, and the board postponed the request pending notice from him.
April Baxter reported there were no certified votes returned by the Platte County Board of Elections for the 2026 General Municipal Election. Because of the lack of certified election returns, the board voted to reappoint incumbents: Grant Lewton moved to reappoint Mathew Damm and Elizabeth Damm as trustees to continue in their current positions; Elizabeth Damm seconded. The reappointments passed by roll call vote, 3-0-0-0. The board also confirmed commissioner assignments, reappointing Mathew Damm as Emergency/Health/Safety Commissioner, Grant Lewton as Building Commissioner, and Elizabeth Damm as Chairman.
In financial business, April Baxter submitted the monthly billing summaries for April 2026 and the board approved payment of the bills on a 3-0-0-0 roll call vote after a motion by Mathew Damm and a second by Grant Lewton.
The meeting was adjourned at 5:55 p.m. following a motion by Elizabeth Damm and a second by Mathew Damm. The minutes of the meeting were later approved by the Board on June 9, 2026 and attested in the meeting record.
