City Council votes to cancel Feb. 18 meeting

St. Joseph city council members have approved the cancellation of their next meeting planned for mid-February.
The group voted unanimously to cancel the meeting set for Feb. 18 because multiple members and city staffers are set to attend the Missouri Municipal League Legislative Conference in Jefferson City. The meeting was initially scheduled for a Tuesday due to President’s Day falling on the normal Monday meeting date.
The next city council meeting will take place at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, March 3.
Upcoming items on the March 4 agenda include:
An agreement with the St. Joseph Umpires and Scorekeepers Association to provide officiating services for all Parks, Recreation and Civic Facilities softball leagues in an amount not to exceed $32,000.
An ordinance authorizing the acceptance of a payment from J.E. Dunn and an amendment to the Planning and Community Development department budget all in the amount of $14,700 to provide funding for future professional services costs associated with the development of the new Rolling Hills Library.
An ordinance accepting a payment from Epstein and Sons International and an amendment to the general fund Planning and Community Development department budget all in the amount of $50,401 to provide funding for future professional services costs associated with the development of an expansion at Daily’s Premium Meats, LLC.
