City Administrator George Ertle told the Board the Fiscal Year 2026/2027 budget includes $1,000 for an Aldermen Outreach Program, with "approximately $333 designated for each ward," and asked the Board to establish program parameters to guide a future policy.
Board members discussed whether outreach meetings should be held semi-annually or quarterly and emphasized that any Aldermen Outreach Program should complement — not duplicate — existing community engagement. The transcript notes that the Lake St. Louis Ambassadors already serve the community through monthly meetings covering a variety of topics. No motion was made and the Board took no action; members agreed to continue framing program parameters for a future meeting.
