Perryville aldermen approve zoning map change, accept shared‑use path easements and several contracts; set budget hearing
Summary
In a largely procedural Feb. 3 meeting the Board of Aldermen approved multiple ordinances and resolutions — including amendments to the zoning map, acceptance of easement deeds for the Edgemont Blvd. shared‑use path, facility and maintenance contracts for the American Red Cross and airport AWOS, award of airport mowing services, and set public hearings for budget and rezoning — by unanimous votes with one absent.
The Perryville Board of Aldermen on Feb. 3 moved a slate of routine but consequential items forward, approving amendments to the official zoning map, accepting easement deeds for a MoDOT‑funded shared‑use path, authorizing facility and maintenance agreements and scheduling public hearings for the 2026–27 budget and two rezoning requests.
On second reading the board approved Bill No. 6621, which became Ordinance No. 6834, replacing the city’s Official Zoning District Map. The board also accepted easement deeds tied to the MoDOT TAP Edgemont Blvd. shared‑use path — Bill No. 6622 (Ordinance No. 6835), an easement from Perry County, and Bill No. 6623 (Ordinance No. 6836), an easement from Hoeckele 4, LLC — each approved on roll call 5–0 with one absent.
Resolutions passed included Resolution No. 2026‑11 authorizing a facility‑use contract with the American Red Cross for shelter locations at Perry Park Center and the Community Center, and Resolution No. 2026‑12 authorizing a maintenance and repair agreement with Marcus Wayland AWOS Maintenance for Perryville Regional Airport. The board acknowledged multiple pay estimates and purchases on the consent agenda, including Pay Estimate 3 (final) to Earth First Contractors, LLC ($12,000) and Pay Estimate 4 (final) to All Clear Pumping & Sewer, LLC ($19,900), and approved purchase of seven alpha fire hydrants from Core and Main LP ($23,660.68). The consent agenda also presented January bills totaling $2,097,330.22 across multiple funds and awarded Airport mowing services to Welker Brother Landscaping at $500 per mowing event.
The board set public hearings for the proposed FY2026–27 budget for Feb. 17, 2026, at 6:30 p.m. and for two rezoning requests from Cape Land and Development, LLC (Brandon Williams) on March 3, 2026, at 6:30 p.m. The board also accepted the final plat for Crestview Place Second Addition (Bill No. 6625 / Ordinance No. 6838).
A separate resolution (2026‑14) expressing the City’s support for state legislation to ban intoxicating hemp‑derived products (referencing House Bill 2641 and Senate Bill 904) also passed by a 5–0 vote with one absent. Resolution 2026‑13, regarding amendments to the utility main extension policy, was tabled by consensus.
Staff updates included Public Works identifying and shutting off an abandoned Holly Street waterline and discussion of snow‑removal practices after resident complaints of snow being pushed back into driveways. EDA Director Jones reported preliminary business survey results highlighting access to capital, affordable‑housing shortages and workforce gaps; city engineering reports indicated multiple MoDOT TAP projects with easement and plan approvals pending.
The meeting recessed to a closed session under RSMo 610.021(2),(9) and (19) for real estate, contractual and security matters and reconvened before adjourning. The board adjourned to its next regular meeting on Feb. 17, 2026, at 6:30 p.m.
