Greenwood board approves multiple procurement resolutions and advances stop‑sign ordinance reading
Summary
The board approved several budgeted purchases and contracts including a digital sign RFP, a parks mower and PA system, a road roller, and a fingerprinting-machine service renewal; the clerk read an ordinance amending stop‑sign schedules and the board moved to enter closed session under Missouri statute.
At its regular meeting the City of Greenwood board approved a package of procurement and contract items and advanced a traffic ordinance reading.
Resolutions approved by voice vote included: - R2024-63: authorize solicitation of bids (RFP) for a digital communications sign at City Hall; staff said the FY2025 budget included expenditure authority and an RFP will be posted with a 30-day response window. - R2024-65: purchase of a Kubota ZD-series zero-turn lawn mower for Parks & Recreation via a cooperative purchasing contract; council members noted the purchase was budgeted. - R2024-66: solicitation and purchase of a public-address/audio system for Joel d Park to replace temporary speaker setups during events. - R2024-67: renewal of a service agreement for the police department—s fingerprinting machine; staff explained the vendor/rotation cycle and noted Missouri Highway Patrol funding typically covers machine costs but a service contract is required. - R2024-68: purchase of a DynaPac road roller through cooperative purchasing with Central Power Systems to support in-house street repairs.
The council also heard the first (and in some remarks second) reading of Bill 2024-52 to amend Chapter 3.35 (stop and yield intersections) by replacing Schedule 4A to add multiple stop signs to the city code. The clerk read the ordinance language; council discussed packet availability and procedural matters before moving on.
During department reports the board heard Parks & Recreation—s update on upcoming events (a "holiday ride" replacing fall fest), volunteer needs, donated soccer goals from Z Sports, and planned fence work for baseball fields. Public works reported recent progress on 2nd Avenue South (staff said about 500 feet of lane poured back) and ongoing coordination to identify repair segments for in-house work. The police chief said cameras will go live at Hip Park once electrical connections are complete and praised the recent "Cops and Bobbers" event.
At the end of the public session the board moved to enter a closed session, citing Missouri statute language on the record; the vote to enter closed session was taken and approved on the transcript without additional public detail.
