[2:22] Welcome everyone to the July 20th, 2026
[2:26] regular board of alderman meeting. Would
[2:27] everybody please join with me in saying
[2:29] the pledge of
[2:29] >> allegiance
[2:33] to the flag of the United States of
[2:35] America and to the republic for which it
[2:38] stands. One nation under God,
[2:41] indivisible with liberty and justice for
[2:43] all.
[2:46] >> Roll call, please.
[2:49] >> Puffa,
[2:49] >> here.
[2:51] >> Ty,
[2:51] >> here.
[2:52] >> Autooman Goat
[2:53] >> here.
[2:53] >> Woman Sims
[2:55] >> here. Alderman Lock Miller
[2:56] >> here.
[2:56] >> Alderman Gold
[2:58] >> uh here.
[2:59] >> Automan Harter
[3:00] >> here.
[3:00] >> Altman Meyer
[3:01] >> here.
[3:02] >> Mayor D have a quum.
[3:03] >> Thank you. Uh next up is approval of the
[3:05] agenda. Do we have any changes to the
[3:08] agenda?
[3:09] If not, uh any objection to approve? I'm
[3:12] sorry. Yes,
[3:12] >> I would like to remove one item from the warrants list from the consent
[3:16] agenda.
[3:16] >> Okay. Which one is that?
[3:20] Um
[3:23] agenda item number nine B
[3:27] >> due to a conflict of interest.
[3:33] » We're we're moving it.
[3:34] >> So moving it out of the consent agenda.
[3:37] She she'd like I think what an
[3:40] appropriate motion would be at the time
[3:42] we get to the consent agenda make a
[3:44] motion to approve the consent agenda
[3:46] withholding that item and then take a
[3:49] separate motion for approval of that
[3:51] item and you'll recuse yourself from
[3:52] that one. Okay.
[3:53] >> Okay.
[3:54] >> So we'll have a separate vote on on 9B
[3:56] or whatever that that is. Okay.
[3:58] >> All right. Uh seeing there are no
[4:01] objection or any objection to approving
[4:03] the same acclamation. I see none. We're
[4:05] so approved on the agenda. Thank you.
[4:07] All right. Next up are announcements,
[4:08] appointments, proclamations, and
[4:10] recognitions. We have two things. First
[4:11] up are some appointments to a couple of
[4:14] different boards. First up is we have an
[4:17] a uh an opening on the board of
[4:19] adjustment and I am making the
[4:22] recommendation that we appoint Jason Lee
[4:24] to the board of adjustment.
[4:26] I get a motion to that effect.
[4:29] >> Moved. Second.
[4:30] >> Any objection? All in favor, please
[4:32] indicate by saying I.
[4:33] >> I.
[4:34] >> Any opposed? Motion carries. Thank you.
[4:37] And thank you, Mr. Lee. Secondly, uh our
[4:40] newly created visual identity project
[4:42] committee. We have uh threw out some an
[4:45] application. Michelle handled that and
[4:47] we had a lot of folks responding and
[4:50] Michelle helped us go through all these
[4:52] and we have come up with uh the
[4:54] following individuals that we would like
[4:56] to that I'm going to uh request that you
[4:59] all approve to the uh appointment of
[5:02] this committee. David Kramer, who's the
[5:04] business owner of Carl's Drive-In. Dan
[5:06] Fitzgerald, a resident of W three.
[5:09] Marian Moore, resident of W four. Tom
[5:11] Strait, a resident of W three. Kelly
[5:14] Wucher,
[5:16] resident of Ward One. Eileen Grestle,
[5:19] resident of W three, and Kim Murphy,
[5:21] resident of W 2. I'd prefer just taking
[5:23] this all on the block if you're if
[5:25] you're okay with that. And if so, take a
[5:27] motion to that effect.
[5:28] >> Motion to that effect.
[5:30] >> Okay. A motion to make a to approve
[5:32] those uh individuals to the new
[5:35] committee. Any discussion? Yes.
[5:37] >> Have one one clarification question
[5:39] maybe for Michelle. If there are others
[5:41] that come forward, could they also be
[5:44] added to this or is this a one time
[5:46] only?
[5:52] I know we talked about maybe school
[5:53] board representative or something along
[5:55] those lines as well.
[5:56] >> So the committee we've reached kind of
[5:58] the number we're comfortable with. Um,
[6:00] and we would probably also look at
[6:02] adding an elected official to that as
[6:04] well. Um, but there are other
[6:06] opportunities for public engagement.
[6:07] We're going to have some focus groups
[6:09] and um, different opportunities like
[6:11] that. So, if there are still people that
[6:13] you think would be a good fit or people
[6:14] who are interested, I'm going to
[6:16] continue advertising for those
[6:17] opportunities. So, you're welcome to
[6:19] direct those people to me. I will reach
[6:21] out and um, kind of keep them in mind
[6:24] for those other various opportunities as
[6:26] they become available.
[6:27] >> Thank you.
[6:28] Okay. Um,
[6:31] so all those in favor, please indicate
[6:33] by saying I. I.
[6:34] >> Any opposed? Motion carries. Thank you
[6:36] so much, everybody. Second item is a
[6:39] proclamation. Uh, that's the parks and
[6:41] recreation month. Since 1985, America
[6:44] has celebrated July as Parks and
[6:46] Recreation Month, a program of the
[6:48] National Recreation and Parks
[6:50] Association. The goal is to raise
[6:52] awareness of the vital impact that parks
[6:54] and recreation has on communities across
[6:56] the US. Uh accordingly, I am going to be
[6:59] issuing this proclamation today, a
[7:01] designation of July as parks and
[7:03] recreation month. Whereas parks and
[7:05] recreation programs are an integral part
[7:07] of communities throughout this country,
[7:09] including the city of Brentwood,
[7:10] Missouri. And whereas our parks and
[7:13] recreation are vitally important to
[7:14] establishing and maintaining the quality
[7:16] of life in our communities, ensuring the
[7:18] health of all citizens, and contributing
[7:20] to the economic and environmental
[7:22] well-being of a community and region.
[7:24] And whereas parks and recreation
[7:26] programs build healthy, active
[7:28] communities that aid in the prevention
[7:30] of chronic disease, provide therapeutic
[7:32] recreation services for those who are
[7:34] intellectually or physically disabled,
[7:37] and also improve the mental and
[7:39] emotional health of all citizens. And
[7:41] whereas parks and recreation programs
[7:43] increase a community's economic
[7:44] prosperity through increased property
[7:46] values, expansion of the local tax base,
[7:50] increased tourism, the attraction and
[7:51] retention of businesses and crime
[7:53] reduction. And whereas parks and
[7:55] recreation areas are fundamental to the
[7:57] environmental well-being of our
[7:58] community. And whereas parks and rec
[8:01] natural recreation areas improve water
[8:03] quality, protect groundwater, prevent
[8:05] flooding, improve the quality of the air
[8:07] we breathe, provide vegetative buffers
[8:10] to development, and produce habitat for
[8:12] wildlife. And whereas the US House of
[8:14] Representatives has designated July as
[8:16] parks and recreation month, and whereas
[8:18] the city of Brentwood, Missouri
[8:20] recognizes the benefits derived from
[8:21] parks and recreation resources. Now
[8:24] therefore, I, Mayor David A. dimmit by
[8:26] the authority vest in vested in me as
[8:28] mayor of the city of Brentwood, Missouri
[8:30] and on behalf of the board of alderman
[8:31] do hereby recognize the month of July as
[8:34] parks and recreation month in the city
[8:35] of Brentwood.
[8:37] All right,
[8:40] that will move us on down to item five,
[8:44] uh, public hearing. We have non citizen
[8:46] comments. Anybody in the public care to
[8:48] address the board? Now is the time to do
[8:50] so. All we ask is that you go to that
[8:51] little podium right there, state your
[8:53] name and your address, and you'll be
[8:54] given up to three minutes. Certainly.
[8:56] Thank you all for your time this
[8:57] evening. My name is Jeremy Straner. I
[8:58] live at 2528 High School Drive. [snorts]
[9:01] So, uh, I would like to just tell you I
[9:04] was born in Brentwood. I grew up here as
[9:06] did one of my parents and their parents.
[9:08] So, I've been in Brentwood a long time.
[9:10] Uh, and I love this community. I love my
[9:12] neighbors and that's why I'm here
[9:13] tonight. Uh, for my professional life,
[9:16] I've been an embedded software engineer
[9:17] for over 25 years. I've been working on
[9:20] complex interconnected systems just like
[9:22] the ones that I would like to talk about
[9:23] this evening. Uh so I recently learned
[9:25] that Brenwood has a contract with Flock
[9:27] Security. Um this led me to the question
[9:30] why why why do we need these cameras? Um
[9:33] and the answer is probably to deter
[9:35] crime. But do we need in Brentwood AI
[9:40] cameras tracking citizens around 24
[9:42] hours a day? Is that is that really
[9:44] needed? I don't think crime's that bad
[9:45] here. Um, while addressing the
[9:48] Pennsylvania Assembly in 19, excuse me,
[9:50] 1755, Benjamin Franklin famously said,
[9:54] "Those who would give up essential
[9:55] liberty to purchase little temporary
[9:57] safety deserve neither liberty nor
[9:59] safety." What our founding father was
[10:02] trying to relay in that was that
[10:04] short-sighted solutions for complex
[10:06] issues frequently are a bad idea. Uh,
[10:10] I'm not here to criticize the police or
[10:12] our local government. This actually has,
[10:14] you know, very little to do with that.
[10:16] Uh, it's about a company that
[10:17] demonstrabably lies to customers and
[10:19] changes agreements after the fact. It's
[10:22] about a company that shares user data
[10:24] without consent and then tells police
[10:26] departments they're doing the exact
[10:27] opposite. This is about a private
[10:29] company that we're subsidizing to the
[10:31] $225,000 a year with our tax dollars.
[10:34] And I say subsidizing because they are
[10:36] then taking this data that we are paying
[10:38] them to collect and then selling it to
[10:40] pretty much anybody that will buy it. uh
[10:42] this includes private investigators,
[10:45] uh federal governments, uh pretty much
[10:47] anybody that's willing to pay for it.
[10:49] So, this is more than just a camera.
[10:51] This isn't just a camera that's out
[10:52] there. This is an enormous platform um
[10:56] that includes many different services
[10:57] such as Free Form, which is an AI search
[10:59] for people by physical description.
[11:01] Raven, which was originally sold for
[11:03] gunshot detection, but now listens for
[11:05] human voices. They have a patent to
[11:07] classify people by race, gender, height,
[11:09] weight into a searchable database.
[11:11] They're now pairing the Bluetooth and
[11:13] Wi-Fi fingerprints from your phone to
[11:15] your car, so they know who you're going
[11:17] around the the entire country with. Um,
[11:20] they also know if you're riding in the
[11:22] car with somebody else. Um, they have u
[11:25] more patents to classify people and make
[11:27] it searchable database across the whole
[11:29] country. And since it's a private
[11:31] company, there's very little oversight.
[11:33] Uh, and local police departments are
[11:35] losing control of their cameras. Flock
[11:37] enabled nationwide setting without
[11:39] police knowledge in Mountain View,
[11:40] California. Cambridge, Massachusetts.
[11:42] Flock installed cameras after the city
[11:43] council ordered they be deactivated. In
[11:46] Washington, Border Patrol agents access
[11:48] 10 departments data that they never
[11:49] agreed to share. LA, one in three hot
[11:51] list reports were incorrect, leading to
[11:53] a waste of police time and resources.
[11:56] Illinois found that Flock was illegally
[11:58] sharing their data and are now suing
[12:00] them. San Francisco found that the
[12:02] federal government illegally access
[12:04] flock data hundreds of times and that
[12:05] was just a month ago. Uh security
[12:08] researchers on the internet have shown
[12:10] that these cameras can be broken into in
[12:11] under 30 seconds. Uh I personally don't
[12:15] understand how these this is in
[12:16] violating the law. The Supreme Court
[12:18] found that uh bulk collection of
[12:21] citizens cell phone data was against the
[12:24] fourth amendment. Um but now since this
[12:26] is a private company collecting almost
[12:27] the exact same data um it's allowed and
[12:31] the federal government has said that
[12:33] they are now going to start buying this
[12:34] data.
[12:35] >> Mr. Schwer, are you about ready to wrap
[12:37] it up?
[12:37] >> I will. Yes.
[12:38] >> Okay. Thank you.
[12:39] >> Um so uh we wouldn't approve a water
[12:42] plant without an environmental
[12:43] assessment and I don't think we should
[12:45] approve these surveillance
[12:46] infrastructure without government
[12:47] controls and uh citizen input. So, I
[12:51] realize, you know, we're spending about
[12:53] $100,000 every four years on these
[12:54] cameras. Uh, while overall that's not a
[12:57] huge hit, you know, to the budget,
[12:59] that's for normal folks, that's a lot of
[13:00] money, and I think we could spend it in
[13:03] building our community instead of
[13:04] surveilling citizens. Thank you.
[13:06] >> Thank you. Anybody else?
[13:12] » Anyone online? Okay, great. Thank you so
[13:14] much, Mr. Stner. Uh, next up, our mayor
[13:17] and alderman reports. First up is the
[13:19] mayor. I just have a few things. Um the
[13:22] um uh every Wednesday this month, Urban
[13:25] Chestnut has been uh holding a popup
[13:28] event down at our Brentwood Park. And it
[13:31] runs from 4 to 8 and we will have a
[13:33] total of five uh this month. And I would
[13:37] to classify it as being a resounding
[13:40] success, I think, be somewhat of an
[13:41] understatement. Uh we've had three of
[13:43] them so far, very very well attended.
[13:46] And we have two more still in this
[13:47] month. And on the agenda tonight is a
[13:50] request to go into a August uh
[13:53] continuing that. So if you have not
[13:55] been, I would uh encourage you to swing
[13:58] by this Wednesday or the following
[14:00] Wednesday. I think this Wednesday
[14:01] they're going to continue uh last
[14:03] Wednesday had trivia and they're going
[14:05] to do trivia again uh this Wednesday.
[14:07] It's a lot of fun. Great chance to meet
[14:09] folks and uh just enjoy our our brand
[14:11] new park. So again, that's this
[14:13] Wednesday from 4:00 to 8. Secondly, we
[14:16] will be having coffee with the mayor
[14:18] next week on Thursday, the last Thursday
[14:20] of the month, and we are going to be
[14:24] holding it at the park uh at the
[14:27] Britwood Park. And uh this will be the
[14:31] second time that we've held it down
[14:32] there, but we're going to be actually
[14:33] having the jazz group uh which is
[14:36] comprised primarily, if not exclusively,
[14:38] of our high school students. Uh if any
[14:40] of you have heard them play, we probably
[14:42] have by now, but they do a phenomenal
[14:44] job. So if you're looking for something
[14:46] to do on the last Thursday of the month
[14:48] from 9 to 10, come on down to Brentwood
[14:50] Park and uh free donuts, uh listen to
[14:53] some great music, and again have a
[14:54] chance to meet some of your um your
[14:56] fellow uh residents. Finally, uh this is
[14:59] the last meeting we'll have before the
[15:01] election of August the 4th, 2026. Just a
[15:04] reminder that we do have another
[15:05] election, so I would encourage everybody
[15:07] to attend that and uh exercise your
[15:10] constitutionally protected right. Uh
[15:12] Alderman Pluffka,
[15:14] >> thank you. I would um say the same with
[15:17] regard to voting. Um not only candidates
[15:20] representing us in Jeff City, but
[15:21] several constitutional amendments on a
[15:23] variety of subjects. Please learn about
[15:25] the candidates and issues and vote on or
[15:27] before August 4th. Uh, also public
[15:29] safety will meet on July 22nd, which is
[15:32] a Wednesday, referred to by the mayor
[15:35] and um, as chairman of public safety.
[15:38] Um, I'm going to just say this. I I I
[15:41] think we're going to meet at the
[15:42] pavilion in Brentwood Park at 5:30 and
[15:45] conduct our public safety meeting there.
[15:48] Um, and unless that changes, we we'll
[15:50] give everybody notice. If it changes,
[15:51] we'll give you at least 24 hours notice.
[15:53] It's normally here in this chamber, but
[15:55] I'm I'm really inclined to move it to
[15:58] the pavilion in Brentwood Park. So,
[16:01] anyway, uh that's my those are my two
[16:04] announcements.
[16:04] >> Thank you. Eric is saying, "Wait a
[16:06] minute, I've got it booked solid for
[16:07] that."
[16:07] >> And you know what? I didn't even think
[16:09] about that. [laughter]
[16:11] >> Okay. Thank you very much. Alder Ty.
[16:14] >> Um the uh August Ways and Means meeting
[16:18] which is uh currently scheduled for the
[16:21] 6th uh bullet indicated we may need to
[16:24] push it to after the uh public works
[16:26] committee meeting. So if you're on uh
[16:28] ways and means we probably won't be
[16:30] meeting the sixth and likely will be
[16:31] meeting later in the month. So watch
[16:33] your email.
[16:34] >> Thank you. Aldwoman go
[16:35] >> no report.
[16:36] >> Alderwoman Sims
[16:37] >> no report.
[16:38] >> Alderman Gold. Uh yes. Uh we are

[16:43] meeting for that was scheduled for
[16:45] tomorrow night. Um because we're just
[16:48] getting everything going. So nothing
[16:49] really to to address the committee on.
[16:52] Um and then uh we do have our ward 3
[16:55] meeting uh let's see the last Tuesday
[16:59] which is next Tuesday the 28th at 6:30

[19:33] >> yes.
[19:34] >> Uh, bill number 6613 now becomes
[19:37] ordinance number 5237.
[19:39] >> Thank you. Next up is item is bill
[19:42] number 6614. This is listed under old
[19:45] business. It is old business because
[19:47] it's a continuation of the parking lot
[19:49] issue. It keeps coming up every six
[19:51] months. Uh, but we are having a first
[19:53] read. So, could we get a first read by
[19:54] title only, please?
[19:55] >> Yes, sir. Bill number 6614, an ordinance
[19:58] enacting emergency measures to extend
[20:01] the continued use of temporary parking
[20:03] lots for Brentwood Park.
[20:06] >> We would like to have a second read on
[20:07] this tonight. If we can get a motion to
[20:09] that effect. So, moved.
[20:11] >> Second.
[20:12] >> Uh, any discussion on that? All in favor
[20:14] of there being a second read, please
[20:15] indicate by saying I.
[20:17] >> I.
[20:17] >> Any opposed? Motion carries. Mr. City
[20:19] Attorney, can we get a second read by
[20:21] tile only, please? Bill number 6614, an
[20:24] ordinance enacting emergency measures to
[20:26] extend the continued use of temporary
[20:28] parking lots for Brentwood Park.
[20:31] >> Thank you. Chair would entertain a
[20:32] motion to perfect bill number 6614,
[20:35] ordinance form.
[20:37] >> So moved.
[20:38] >> Second.
[20:40] >> Okay. Any discussion?
[20:43] >> Yes. Could I just uh have Dan, if you
[20:47] wouldn't mind just giving an update. I
[20:49] know there was some work done and just
[20:51] kind of an update on on the changes and
[20:53] the impact of those changes, please.
[21:00] » The uh parking lot on the north side was
[21:02] the one that we made the changes. So,
[21:04] north side parking lot, uh, just east of
[21:06] Mary, the eastern edge of that, we
[21:08] graded I'd say 10 or 12 feet back, took
[21:11] the rock out, dug down below the rock
[21:13] level, put fresh dirt back, seed and
[21:16] straw the area, um, feathered that slope
[21:19] so that drains both to the north and
[21:21] south inlets that are there. And then
[21:23] the last thing is to put the ground glue
[21:25] down. We tried that out. It actually
[21:27] works really well around the shop. So,
[21:28] we ordered more of that and then parks
[21:30] will apply that. I know they've redone
[21:32] the parking stalls, the striping, so
[21:35] everything seems to be in order. I know
[21:37] we've gone out there multiple times
[21:38] during the June rains and even July, the
[21:41] few rain events that we've had. Haven't
[21:43] noticed any runoff and everything looks
[21:46] great.
[21:46] >> Great. Thank you. Thank you for the
[21:48] update.
[21:49] >> Any other questions?
[21:51] Hey, roll call, please.
[21:52] >> Alman Puffkco,
[21:54] >> woman Ty,
[21:54] >> yes.
[21:55] >> Aldwoman Gold,
[21:56] >> yes.
[21:56] >> Woman Sims,
[21:57] >> yes.
[21:57] >> Lock Miller,
[21:58] >> yes.
[21:58] >> Alman G,
[21:59] >> yes.
[22:00] >> Harter, yes. Alderman Meyer.
[22:01] >> Yes.
[22:02] >> Bill number 6614 now becomes ordinance
[22:04] number 5238.
[22:06] >> Thank you. That brings us into new
[22:07] business. First up is resolution number
[22:10] 1597, which is a resolution approving a
[22:12] naming rights agreement with the
[22:14] Brentwood School District. Eric, are you
[22:16] presenting on this?
[22:24] So, the city received a request from the
[22:26] Brentwood School District to uh name the
[22:29] home dugout uh at the Brentwood Sports
[22:32] Complex Field number one uh in honor of
[22:34] Coach Mike I uh Igoot. Uh per the naming
[22:39] section of the city's donation
[22:41] sponsorships and facility naming policy,
[22:44] uh all naming of facilities has to be
[22:46] done with approval by the board of
[22:47] alderman. That's why a resolution is for
[22:49] you this evening. Uh a naming for a
[22:52] facility for a specific individual or
[22:54] corporation will only be considered if
[22:56] that individual has made significant
[22:58] contribution to the city of Brentwood.
[23:00] Uh could be informed outstanding civic
[23:01] service, prolonged period of time. Uh
[23:05] those type of things. Uh names honoring
[23:06] living individuals must be supported by
[23:09] extraordinary compelling reasons along
[23:10] with a thorough background review. So uh
[23:13] and then one of the other items is
[23:15] although it might not be appropriate to
[23:17] name a permanent facility after an
[23:18] individual uh a associate amenity
[23:22] associated with the facility could be
[23:24] named for that person. And so field
[23:26] number one's already named after coach
[23:27] Jim Taylor and and so this would kind of
[23:30] fall into that realm of you know not
[23:32] naming the full facility but naming the
[23:33] dugout. So, according to the request we
[23:36] received, Coach Emergoot dedicated 32
[23:38] years for um to mentoring players and
[23:41] fellow coaches at Brownwood High School
[23:43] and he they believe he's uh deserving
[23:46] this honor and has probably spent the
[23:47] most time in that dugout of anyone in
[23:49] the city of Brentwood. So, that was the
[23:52] request. Uh it is our responsibility to
[23:54] bring it to the board for discussion
[23:58] >> to approve uh resolution
[24:02] seven. All right, we have a motion. Do
[24:03] we have a second to approve resolution
[24:05] 1597? Thank you. Any discussion?
[24:08] >> Yes, Alderman Lock Mueller.
[24:09] >> Eric, is there any type of signage that
[24:11] would be posted on that?
[24:13] >> Yeah, the signage is uh would be posted
[24:15] and that would be the responsibility of
[24:16] the school district. That is part of the
[24:18] agreement that was has been prepared and
[24:21] approved by uh the city attorney. He
[24:23] looked it over and and gave a lot of
[24:24] good edits to for me. But part of it is
[24:27] uh that they would be responsible for
[24:29] the the plaque and for in installation
[24:31] cost of that. We would then be
[24:33] responsible for maintaining it. But if
[24:35] the plaque was damaged, they'd have to
[24:36] replace it.
[24:37] >> Thank you.
[24:41] » Yes. Uh okay. All those in favor, please
[24:44] indicate by saying I. I.
[24:46] >> Any opposed? Resolution 1597 is
[24:49] approved. Thank you. Next up is
[24:51] resolution number 1600,
[24:54] which is a resolution approving the
[24:56] architectural services agreement for the
[24:58] public works and parks maintenance
[25:00] facility project between H Design Group
[25:03] and the city of Brentwood. Dan,
[25:14] uh, this is the RFQ that was brought up
[25:16] at the, uh, public works committee. So
[25:18] we had a total of 11 submittals, paired
[25:21] that down to a group of three, did
[25:23] interviews with those three, and then
[25:25] narrowed that group down to each design
[25:27] group, which is presented to the board
[25:29] here tonight. Um, if this is approved, I
[25:33] put together the rough schedule. If we
[25:36] started with the agreement being
[25:38] approved uh during this week, then we
[25:40] could start with design and permitting
[25:42] as early as August, and that would go
[25:44] through uh February 2027. And then
[25:48] project bidding would be in February 27.
[25:50] Most of the construction would take
[25:51] place in 27. Um anticipated construction
[25:56] would wind down around February of 28.
[25:58] That would be substantial completion.
[26:00] And then final completion March of 28
[26:03] assuming that this is approved. Um I did
[26:07] put the uh compensation table there so
[26:09] you can kind of see what we would be
[26:11] expensing in 2026 and then in future
[26:14] budget cycles. So the three main phases
[26:17] in 26 with H design is roughly 213,512.
[26:22] We do have a budget of 250,000, 125 from
[26:25] public works, 125,000 from parks. So
[26:29] what we're looking for is a motion to
[26:31] approve the agreement and move forward
[26:33] with H design.
[26:36] >> Can we get a motion to that effect?
[26:39] >> So moved.
[26:41] >> Second. Okay.
[26:42] >> Any discussion?
[26:46] Okay. All those in favor, please
[26:47] indicate by saying I.
[26:49] >> I. I.
[26:50] >> Any opposed? Motion carries. Resolution
[26:53] 1600 is approved. Thanks.
[26:56] >> Thanks.
[26:56] >> That brings us down to uh bill number
[27:01] 6615. Can we get a first read by title
[27:03] only, please?
[27:04] >> Yes. Bill number 6615, an ordinance
[27:07] approving an amended and restated
[27:09] governmental cooperation agreement for
[27:12] the provision of technology services
[27:14] with the city of Clayton, Missouri on
[27:16] behalf of the city of Brentwood,
[27:17] Missouri, commence August 1, 2026
[27:22] effect for a duration of three years.
[27:26] >> Okay, who's presenting on that? Troy.
[27:30] Oh, hi Troy.
[27:34] Good evening, mayor and council. Um, I'm
[27:37] here to present the intergovernmental
[27:39] agreement.
[27:41] As you know, we brought in the city of
[27:43] Maplewood into the agreement which
[27:45] lowered all the city's cost. Your
[27:48] realized savings was 9% off your
[27:50] contract. We cannot change contract um
[27:53] cost in um midterm in a contract. So,
[27:57] this will start a new three-year
[27:59] contract. you will realize that 9%
[28:02] savings. Um, all the terms and
[28:04] conditions in the contract have stayed
[28:06] the same. There will be no changes
[28:09] besides the cost and the dates.
[28:14] » Okay. Thank you. And just by way of
[28:17] background for those who uh might be
[28:19] watching in, this is just another
[28:20] example of Burntwood working with other
[28:22] cities to uh collaborate and cooperate
[28:25] in sharing of services. Uh I think this
[28:28] started maybe in 2017 when the the city
[28:31] partnered with the city of Clayton and
[28:34] uh Richmond Heights for Clayton to
[28:35] provide our IT services which is
[28:38] all-encompassing includes uh budgeting
[28:41] and maintenance and uh setting things up
[28:44] and making sure we don't have any
[28:45] problems with our phones, our computers.
[28:47] It's been uh an absolute success and a
[28:50] model for other municipalities on how to
[28:52] work together and to lower their costs
[28:54] and providing the services to their
[28:56] residents. Uh and as as Troy indicated,
[28:59] we're uh Maplewood is now joining this
[29:02] as well. So, uh are we wanting to have a
[29:05] second? We are wanting to have a second
[29:07] read on this. So, can we get a motion to
[29:09] that effect, please?
[29:10] >> So, moved.
[29:10] >> Second.
[29:11] >> Any discussion on the motion for a
[29:13] second read? All those in favor, please
[29:15] indicate by saying I.
[29:16] >> I. I.
[29:16] >> Any opposed? Motion carries. Mr. City
[29:19] Attorney, could we get a second read by
[29:20] title only, please?
[29:21] >> Bill number 66:15, an ordinance
[29:24] approving an amended and restated
[29:26] intergovernmental cooperation agreement
[29:28] for the provision of technology services
[29:30] with the city of Clayton, Missouri on
[29:33] behalf of the city of Brentwood,
[29:34] Missouri, commencing on August 1, 2026
[29:37] and continuing in effect for a duration
[29:40] of three years.
[29:42] >> Thank you. Chair would entertain a
[29:43] motion to perfect bill number 6615 into
[29:46] ordinance form.
[29:48] >> Second.
[29:49] >> Thank you. Any discussion?
[29:53] Roll call, please.
[29:55] >> Alman Puffka,
[29:56] >> yes.
[29:56] >> Awoman Ty,

[30:02] >> yes.
[30:02] >> Autooman Harter,
[30:03] >> yes.
[30:04] >> Alman Meyer,
[30:04] >> yes.
[30:05] >> Bill number 6615 now becomes ordinance
[30:07] number 5239.
[30:10] >> Thank you. Next up is bill number 6616.
[30:14] Can we get a first read by title only,
[30:16] please?
[30:16] >> Yes. Bill number 6616, an ordinance
[30:19] granting site development plan approval
[30:21] for a new 9-unit town home development
[30:25] at 8815 MG Avenue.
[30:28] >> Thank you, Whitney.
[30:30] >> Uh good evening. Um Erin Lashi is here.
[30:35] uh he's present his request, but this
[30:39] received approval at the May third um at
[30:42] the June meeting of planning and zoning
[30:45] by a 7 to zero vote. Um it does meet
[30:49] with all of the zoning requirements and
[30:51] uh
[30:53] what more can I answer? [laughter]
[30:55] >> Okay, if you want to just give a brief
[30:58] >> Oh, it's
[30:59] >> synopsis of what this is all about.
[31:00] [laughter]
[31:00] >> Sorry.
[31:02] >> I mean, we know but the audience might
[31:03] not. This is a nine unit town home
[31:06] development. There will be three units
[31:08] in three buildings with a little
[31:10] separation between each of the
[31:12] buildings. Um the applicant has
[31:14] indicated that they would be condo
[31:16] development. So he'll have to come back
[31:18] through for the condo plat when he's
[31:20] closer to that time frame. Um but it
[31:24] meets with the storm water requirements
[31:26] and all of the zoning requirements. The
[31:28] building is 50 feet from the adjacent
[31:31] property where adjacent to residential
[31:33] and there's a 25 foot landscape buffer
[31:36] for the uh drive aisle.
[31:39] Um and
[31:41] >> where is this?
[31:42] >> Oh, I'm sorry. 8815 MG.
[31:45] >> Okay.
[31:46] >> Just behind uh the little commercial
[31:47] development on South Brentwood
[31:49] Boulevard. Okay.
[31:50] >> Yeah.
[31:51] >> Wonderful. Um All right. Have any
[31:54] questions?
[31:57] Alderman Lock Mueller.
[31:59] >> Whitney, I I know they're meeting their
[32:00] parking requirement by having the
[32:02] parking underneath each townhouse of two
[32:04] spaces. Uh I know the citizens that
[32:08] attended several of these meetings. And
[32:10] I will say the applicants been very
[32:12] accommodating to uh some of their
[32:14] concerns, but when it comes to visitor
[32:17] parking,
[32:18] um is that I don't see any condition
[32:21] that was originally discussed on
[32:24] possibly setting up some spacing along
[32:25] that drive aisle for maybe some visitor
[32:28] parking.
[32:30] >> Um yes, the as was discussed at the
[32:32] planning and zoning commission, the
[32:34] drive aisle is 25 ft wide. um any alley
[32:38] or one-way drive aisle is 11 feet. So
[32:42] they felt there was sufficient parking
[32:44] to provide sufficient space that should
[32:47] a visitor want to park along that drive
[32:50] aisle that there's sufficient room. Um
[32:52] the applicant has also indicated that he
[32:54] would work with the commercial
[32:56] development in front of them to see
[32:58] about overnight parking should a
[33:01] resident require such. Um do you want to
[33:04] address that? Okay.
[33:08] Shim Lamichani um 11 Deer Creek Woods.
[33:11] Um I am one of the applicants. Um so in
[33:14] terms of parking, the plan is to allow
[33:17] parallel parking because of the
[33:19] driveways 25 ft as well as uh we are in
[33:23] discussion or trying to connect with the
[33:25] owner um of the commercial property to
[33:28] see if they will allow any visitors
[33:31] parking after hours. I think that's the
[33:34] plan. [snorts] And then the 25 ft drive
[33:37] aisle, um if there are there are
[33:40] visitors, it would um it would be enough
[33:42] for any visitors to park um in in that
[33:45] uh section. Okay. Whitney, do we need to
[33:49] make that a condition that they supply
[33:51] that type of parking?
[33:53] Um,
[33:55] >> can we
[33:55] >> we can we can include that for the
[33:58] second reading is to include a a
[34:01] condition that parallel parking be
[34:03] provided along the drive aisle that it
[34:06] be striped for that. Um,
[34:09] >> I'd like to kind of just think that over
[34:12] and maybe talk to staff and
[34:15] maybe the applicant and see if that
[34:17] could be made all permanent
[34:19] >> fixture there somehow designating those
[34:22] areas as additional parking.
[34:24] >> Okay.
[34:26] >> Thank you,
[34:27] >> Alderman Pluff.
[34:28] >> Thank you. How close is it between the
[34:31] eastern fence and the eastern facade of
[34:34] the of the answer.
[34:37] >> Yeah.
[34:38] >> It's uh 14 ft.
[34:40] >> Yeah.
[34:41] >> And and all of the units, the way I'm
[34:44] looking at the pictures, all the units
[34:45] are are oriented to the east. I mean,
[34:48] the front door is
[34:49] >> correct.
[34:50] >> They face.
[34:51] >> So, the western elevation is the back of
[34:55] the unit.
[34:56] >> That is correct.
[34:57] >> Okay. But what we have done um just to
[35:00] add there the western elevation because
[35:02] of the input from the planning and
[35:05] zoning uh you know council members we've
[35:07] also enhanced the western um west
[35:10] elevation to match the east elevation so
[35:14] it kind of blends in the design.
[35:17] >> Okay. Um and what's the distance between
[35:19] the the between the three units going
[35:22] north?
[35:23] >> 10 feet.
[35:25] >> Okay. And that's and structures this
[35:28] tall that didn't run a follow of our our
[35:31] fire department. They didn't think that
[35:33] those are too close together.
[35:34] >> Um [clears throat] no, the requirement
[35:37] under the new adopted 2024 code is will
[35:40] be that they have to be sprinkled.
[35:42] >> Um we had initial disc we had
[35:44] discussions with the fire department.
[35:47] They are including a new fire hydrant on
[35:49] that drive aisle um to because of the
[35:53] distance to the existing um fire hydrant
[35:56] to provide additional fire protection
[35:59] >> for the unit that's farthest to the
[36:01] north there.
[36:02] >> Yeah. For all of the units that are
[36:03] there. Yeah.
[36:04] >> So the fire hydrant will be along M
[36:06] somewhere.
[36:07] >> No, it will be along the drive aisle for
[36:09] this development. Yeah.
[36:10] >> Oh, I see. How far up into the
[36:11] development do you know?
[36:12] >> About 20 ft. No, it's about I would say
[36:15] about 35 ft in um
[36:17] >> and does does
[36:20] iting around that?
[36:22] >> Yeah.
[36:23] >> Any of the interrupt any of the parallel
[36:25] parking that we just talked about with
[36:27] Steve?
[36:27] >> Yeah.
[36:28] >> So, there's plenty of space on the west
[36:30] side um to park so we can avoid those
[36:34] and still be able to accommodate um
[36:37] parking.
[36:38] >> Yeah. They we'll have to measure for the
[36:40] parallel parking to ensure the distance
[36:43] from a fire hydrant,
[36:44] >> right?
[36:45] >> Yeah.
[36:45] >> Okay. Okay. Thank you.
[36:50] » So, the floor plan is the same for all
[36:52] nine of these.
[36:53] >> Yes.
[36:54] >> And what's a square footage?
[36:56] >> Um 1,800 square foot.
[36:58] >> Thank you.
[36:59] >> Two car two-car attached garage. Um and
[37:02] then it also will be EV ready um in each
[37:05] of the garages.
[37:07] Alderman
[37:09] Lock Mueller,
[37:10] >> I think I heard you say they were
[37:11] condos. So, uh, there'll be a condo
[37:14] assoc association form when it's
[37:16] finished of made up of who?
[37:20] >> So, when when we build it um and send it
[37:23] to permitting, it will have to be given
[37:25] or submitted to the city uh prior to I
[37:28] believe submitting the or getting the
[37:31] approval for uh the building permit. So
[37:34] we will work um h the condo would be um
[37:37] initially would be managed by a third
[37:38] party but once it's starts to be
[37:41] occupied the owner will be part of the
[37:44] condo members.
[37:45] >> So they would they would be allowed to
[37:47] start construction but they do have to
[37:50] come back for a condo plat approval
[37:52] which would then include provisions on
[37:55] maintenance of all of the common ground
[37:56] areas and things like
[37:58] >> that was going to be my next question on
[37:59] maintenance. Okay. Thank you.
[38:02] Anyone else?
[38:05] All right. Thank you. We will see you at
[38:07] the next meeting then for the second
[38:08] read.
[38:10] All right. Next up is bill number 6617.
[38:14] Can we get a first read by title only,
[38:16] please?
[38:17] Bill number 6617, an ordinance providing
[38:20] for the adoption of the third amendment
[38:22] to the fifth amended and restated police
[38:25] and firefighters pension plan, providing
[38:28] for the repeal of all conflicting
[38:30] ordinances, and providing for the
[38:32] effective date of this ordinance.
[38:34] >> Thank you. Just state your name, please,
[38:36] Mr. Lane.
[38:36] >> Good evening. I'm Mike Lane. and I'm
[38:38] with a Thompson Coburn law firm and I
[38:40] represent the uh board of trustees of
[38:43] the police and firefighter pension plan
[38:46] who are recommending some changes to the
[38:48] plan. And the purpose of these changes
[38:51] is to save some time and money for the
[38:54] city and for the pension plan relating
[38:57] to determination of disability.
[39:00] Currently, uh the way the pension plan
[39:03] is structured under the ordinances,
[39:06] an individual who requests a pension
[39:09] based on disability
[39:12] uh must be determined by a medical board
[39:16] appointed by the trustees of the pension
[39:20] fund. to be permanently disabled. That
[39:24] requires a lot of time from both the
[39:26] pension board and the city staff to
[39:29] figure out which kind of medical experts
[39:32] must be appointed and it takes a lot of
[39:35] time from the city staff to uh organize
[39:39] the billing situation. As you know, the
[39:42] uh folks who work in the medical system
[39:47] in this country are used to billing
[39:48] insurance rather than billing a pension
[39:51] plan for the cost of that. And it takes
[39:56] quite a bit of effort on behalf of both
[39:59] the pension board and city staff to do
[40:01] that. Uh what we are asking for in this
[40:04] ordinance is for the ability for the
[40:07] trustees of the pension board to be able
[40:11] to hire a third-party administrator to
[40:14] do this. There are plenty of companies
[40:16] out there that determine whether someone
[40:19] is disabled
[40:21] on behalf of companies, cities,
[40:23] organizations
[40:25] uh without having to individually
[40:28] appoint certain medical providers each
[40:31] year. they've got a stable of people to
[40:34] do it. And so the idea here is that
[40:38] we would have the ability to hire a
[40:42] third party contractor to handle that
[40:44] for us and save a lot of city staff
[40:47] time, save a lot of money, and save a
[40:50] lot of stress on the individual
[40:52] employees who are applying for a
[40:54] disability pension. Happy to answer any
[40:57] further questions that you all may have.
[40:59] >> Yes. Alderman Ty. So, I um I've talked
[41:02] to Captain Neimire about this, but I
[41:04] just want to make sure that the police
[41:06] and the fire departments are comfortable
[41:09] with this change for uh for their um
[41:13] staff.
[41:14] >> Uh from what I understand, it was a
[41:17] unanimous decision of the pension board
[41:19] to to recommend this.
[41:21] >> Okay, great. Thank you.
[41:23] >> Anybody else?
[41:25] Uh the request is to go ahead and get
[41:27] this enacted tonight if or at least have
[41:29] the board vote on it tonight. So to that
[41:32] extent, can we get a motion for a second
[41:33] read?
[41:34] >> So moved.
[41:35] >> Second.
[41:35] >> Any discussion?

[43:01] reimbursement requests
[43:04] >> kind of oversight
[43:06] >> just ensuring that a we're looking at
[43:07] the policy ensuring that we're looking
[43:09] at the credit hours that we have written
[43:11] in the handbook ensuring that the dollar
[43:12] amount reflects that particular credit
[43:14] hours and that we're not submitting for
[43:16] more or less than what the handbook

[43:20] >> Okay. Do we have any questions?
[43:23] Yes.
[43:24] >> How many employees take advantage of
