University City council approves liquor license for Cboe, reappoints several commissioners and certifies election results
Summary
The University City council approved a liquor license for Cboe Italian Restaurant, reappointed and appointed multiple commission members, and adopted a resolution certifying April 7 election results; most actions passed by voice vote during the April 27 meeting.
The University City City Council on April 27 approved a set of routine agenda items including a liquor license for Cboe Italian Restaurant and a slate of commission reappointments and new appointments. Councilmembers approved the agenda and the April 13 minutes, then approved a consent-agenda liquor license for Cboe Italian Restaurant at 7489 Del Mar Boulevard by voice vote. "To Michael Del Pietro in the back, thank you very much for investing in our community," Mayor Terry Crow said after the consent-item vote.
The council also processed a series of appointments and reappointments: Caroline Hermeling to the Historic Preservation Commission; Andrea Lubershane to the Urban Forestry Commission; Gunnar Johansen to the Board of Appeals; Sarah Hanley (reappointment); Beverly Brandt to the Historic Preservation Commission; Pat McQueen to the Planning Commission (special third term); Albert Gallardo to the Traffic Commission; and Gary Ehrenberg to the Stormwater Commission. Each nomination was seconded and approved by voice vote.
On a separate motion, the council adopted Resolution 2026-02 certifying the results of the April 7, 2026 general municipal election; the resolution was moved, seconded, and approved by voice vote with no recorded roll-call objections in the meeting record.
Why it matters: The votes finalize routine licensing and staffing for commissions that advise the council on land use, historic preservation, stormwater, traffic and related city matters. The liquor-license approval clears the way for Cboe Italian Restaurant to operate with an approved license in University City.
How the council voted: The meeting transcript records each item passing after councilmembers were asked "All those in favor?" and the audio record indicates "ayes have it"; no formal roll-call tallies were recorded for these items in the public transcript excerpt.
Next steps: No additional procedural follow-up was recorded in the meeting minutes excerpt; later in the meeting the council voted to enter a closed session under Missouri Revised Statute 610.021 (see related action).
