[5:18] podium andro give us our your name and
[5:22] address and then um you have you'll have
[5:26] three minutes to speak. The council will
[5:28] not interface with you at this time.
[5:32] Seeing no one coming forward,
[5:35] we have a public hearing for the purpose
[5:37] of certifying the rate of levy for
[5:38] property taxes for the 2026 tax year
[5:41] within the city of Fulton at 0.5431
[5:46] for each $100 of the assessed valuation
[5:49] of the property.
[5:54] The format of the meeting hearing will
[5:56] be as follow. I will issue three calls
[5:57] for anyone wishing to speak in
[5:59] opposition, then three calls for anyone
[6:01] who wish to speak in favor. We ask that
[6:03] you come to the podium, state your name
[6:05] and address. The hearing is now declared
[6:08] open.
[6:10] First call, is there anyone present who
[6:12] wish to speak in opposition of this
[6:14] matter?
[6:18] Second call, is there anyone present who
[6:20] wish to speak in opposition of this
[6:22] matter?
[6:24] Third and final call. Is there anyone
[6:26] present who wishes to speak in
[6:28] opposition of this matter?
[6:31] Seeing none, there will be three calls
[6:34] issued for anyone wishing to speak in

[6:48] wish to speak in favor of this matter?

[6:58] Seeing none, the public hearing is now
[7:00] closed and we're and we'll return to our
[7:02] regular agenda.
[7:05] Okay. Our next item of business is the
[7:08] approval of the consent agenda.
[7:11] It consists of the city council meeting
[7:12] minutes for July 28, 2026 and August 11,
[7:16] 2026.
[7:18] a special event request. Missouri
[7:20] Baptist disaster relief training
[7:22] September 11 and 12. Uh two board and
[7:25] commission appointments, one for the
[7:27] board of adjustment, appointment of
[7:29] alternate Bill Erns for a partial term
[7:31] to expire in 2027
[7:34] and planning and zoning appointment of
[7:36] Dan Healey for a part partial term to
[7:38] expire in 2029.
[7:40] I would request to remove the um
[7:44] appointment of Dan Healey to from the
[7:47] consent agenda.
[7:52] Anyone else have any other items on the
[7:54] consent agenda you'd like to discuss?
[7:59] If not, I'd entertain that motion. I'd
[8:02] move the consent agenda. I guess I
[8:05] should say as amended.
[8:08] >> Yeah.
[8:08] >> Okay.
[8:10] for remaining items.
[8:13] >> Do I have a second?
[8:16] All right, we have a
[8:19] motion to second to approve the
[8:20] remaining items on the consent agenda.
[8:22] Any discussion?
[8:25] Hearing none. All those in favor, please
[8:27] say yes.
[8:28] >> Yes.
[8:29] >> All those opposed, please say no.
[8:33] Okay. So, I requested for the consent
[8:35] agenda items for discussion. Uh Mr.
[8:38] Healey for planning and zoning. I've
[8:40] known known him for years and years. Great person, but he doesn't live
[8:44] in the city limits to my knowledge. So,
[8:47] how does that work?
[8:49] >> Yeah, Kathy, I know you had some
[8:50] discussions with our city attorney.
[8:52] Would you like to give a little recap on
[8:54] that, please?
[8:54] >> Sure. Well, um Mr. Healey uh was I sent
[8:58] out the board of adjustment um mailing
[9:01] to our board of adjustment members and
[9:03] Mr. was reviewing the ordin or the code
[9:05] and he said he was told that if you had
[9:08] property inside the city of Lament you
[9:09] could be on the board of adjustment
[9:11] apparently at some point that was a
[9:12] mistake and you can only you have to be
[9:15] a citizen a resident of the city to be
[9:18] on that board.
[9:19] >> Okay.
[9:19] >> And uh so after Tom reviewed it um he
[9:23] said that we couldn't put on the plan
[9:25] because that is just a citizen and not a
[9:27] resident. That's the requirements.
[9:32] » Yeah. I don't understand that either.
[9:34] >> I'm so sorry. So
[9:36] >> on the board of adjustment, Mr. He was a member and um after reviewing the code
[9:42] for that, he stepped out or he he told
[9:44] me that he is actually a land owner here
[9:46] in town and um so we reviewed it with
[9:49] our legal and Tom said no the state
[9:51] statute and so does our city code say
[9:53] you have to be a resident of the city to
[9:55] be on the board of adjustment but
[9:57] planning and zoning it's not a
[9:58] requirement to be a of a city only a
[10:00] citizen
[10:02] >> a citizen
[10:03] >> it's made up of four citizens or however
[10:05] many number citizen and there's no fewer
[10:08] than four.
[10:09] >> But a citizen of what?
[10:11] >> So a citizen of the city? [laughter]
[10:15] >> That's a it's a very subjective
[10:17] question. Um based on what our city
[10:20] attorney has indicated because he is a
[10:22] property owner of property inside the
[10:24] city limits, he is eligible statutoily
[10:26] to be on the planning and zoning
[10:28] commission and the mayor put him forward
[10:30] as an appointment for this evening.
[10:31] >> Yes.
[10:34] >> Sorry. Would that respect? you know.
[10:37] Well, it's it's a bit odd.
[10:38] >> It is
[10:39] >> because I remember I used to uh serve
[10:42] with with Mr. Dy on parks and wreck at
[10:45] one time when he moved out of town. He
[10:48] resigned. So, that's why it was kind of
[10:50] surprising. So, what's your pleasure?
[10:53] >> Before Before you do that, uh Mr. Healey
[10:56] works for a contractor here in in Fulton
[11:00] and he's on a planning and zoning. Would
[11:02] that affect him? Would he have to accuse
[11:04] himself uh if some vote that his uh his
[11:10] contractor is applying for? Would he
[11:11] have to step away from that or is that
[11:13] correct?
[11:13] >> Yes. So, I would clarify that Mr. Healey
[11:16] um does not work for Andrew Huey. To my
[11:19] knowledge, he works for Andrew Huey's
[11:21] father, Andy Huey. Um, and yes, if
[11:25] either his employer or he had any sort
[11:28] of conflict of interest, he would have
[11:29] to recuse himself from whatever item was up for question
[11:32] >> and he's aware of that.
[11:33] >> Yes.
[11:34] >> Okay. Thank you. That's all.
[11:35] >> To that note, there are other builders
[11:37] in town that are on planning zone. It
[11:39] would have to be the same thing,
[11:40] >> right?
[11:41] >> Okay. All right.
[11:45] Do I have a motion one way or the other?
[11:52] Yeah, I'll make a motion that we go
[11:54] ahead and uh appoint Dan Haley for a
[11:56] partial term expired in 2029.
[12:00] >> Motion to second. Any further
[12:02] discussion?
[12:04] >> All those in favor, please say yes.
[12:06] >> Yes.
[12:07] >> Those opposed.
[12:09] >> All right. Eyes have it. Thank you.
[12:12] Appreciate the clarification.
[12:14] Okay. We next have the presentation
[12:16] acceptance of the July uh directive
[12:19] administration report.
[12:21] >> Thank you, Deputy Mayor. I appreciate
[12:22] that. Um I do want to just highlight one
[12:25] event that we hosted mid July and that
[12:27] was the chamber business breakfast with
[12:29] the Kingdom Pilots Association um and
[12:31] Myers Aviation at Elton Hensley Airport
[12:34] was very well attended and I appreciate
[12:36] the council members and the staff and
[12:38] members of the community and business
[12:39] community who were able to come out and
[12:41] uh take a look at our airport and see
[12:43] how wonderful it is and why it's such a
[12:45] great asset here in the in the
[12:46] community. Um, we also have been
[12:48] reviewing some operational things at
[12:50] Tanglewood Golf Course and exploring opportunities to improve some
[12:54] efficiencies. So, um, no decisions have
[12:57] been made at this point as far as the
[12:58] operations at the golf course, but we
[13:00] continue to to review future
[13:02] possibilities there. And then I just
[13:04] want to highlight again, we want to
[13:05] thank, uh, former police chief Bill
[13:07] Ladwick for his many, many years of
[13:09] service. I think it was almost 26 years
[13:11] of service. um and uh recently had his
[13:14] retirement in the appointment of now
[13:16] Chief Dal Hedges. So July was a busy
[13:19] month for us. As always, staff is here
[13:22] and if you guys have any specific
[13:23] questions, we are happy to answer those
[13:25] for you.
[13:29] » Anyone?
[13:32] If not,
[13:35] entertain that motion.
[13:43] We have a motion and second to accept
[13:45] the um July directive of administration
[13:49] report. Any further discussion?
[13:53] All those in favor please say yes.
[13:55] >> Yes.
[13:56] >> Those opposed say no. Eyes have it.
[14:00] Yeses have it. All right. Um so we next
[14:04] have presentation of acceptance of the
[14:05] July financial statement. I believe our
[14:09] chief financial officer is here.
[14:13] >> Hello.
[14:13] >> Hi,
[14:15] Andy Johnson, CFO. City of Fulton
[14:17] recorded 6 months of sales tax in 2026.
[14:20] Collections are up 1.7% from fiscal year
[14:23] 2025. Use tax is down 1.2% from fiscal
[14:27] year 2025. July, we had two payroll
[14:30] cycles and overall year-to- date
[14:32] financial performance remains consistent
[14:34] with budget expectations.
[14:36] Does anybody have any questions?
[14:40] >> Have any idea what's going on with used
[14:42] tax? Just
[14:43] >> I think it's all it's not just us. I
[14:44] mean, it's all over the board.
[14:46] >> Is it?
[14:46] >> Yeah.
[14:47] >> Maybe people are buying in town instead
[14:49] of online. It's more
[14:51] >> Okay.
[14:52] >> There's Yeah, I've been reading on it
[14:53] trying to find out what's going on and
[14:55] it's just kind of
[14:57] >> not that much. I mean, we're talking
[14:58] $6,000.
[15:01] » Anyone else have any questions?
[15:08] I have a motion.
[15:13] » I make a motion that we accept the
[15:15] financial report.
[15:17] >> Motion.
[15:17] >> I'll second it.
[15:18] >> Second. Thank you. Any further
[15:21] discussion of the motion?
[15:23] All those in favor? Please say yes.
[15:25] >> Yes.
[15:26] >> All post say no.
[15:28] >> The yeses have it. We have no unfinished
[15:31] business, no new business.
[15:35] All right, which brings us to council
[15:37] concerns.
[15:39] Council members may discuss matters or
[15:40] concerns not on this agenda. Council
[15:43] leazison, city boards, and commission
[15:44] may also provide a brief review of the
[15:47] most recent meeting. Um, I'm on the list
[15:50] first. So, the human rights commission
[15:52] has not met since our last meeting. We
[15:56] meet on the 31st
[15:59] and uh I have no other concerns.
[16:02] Councilman Combmes.
[16:04] >> Yes, Deputy Mayor. Um, the plan and
[16:06] zoning commission has not met since our
[16:08] last meeting and I have no concerns
[16:11] today.
[16:15] » Councilman Coward,
[16:16] >> uh, the, uh, public utility board met
[16:20] yesterday, had a healthy discussion
[16:22] about the land that's a little later on
[16:24] the agenda and the potential to, uh,
[16:28] secure our future for electrical
[16:30] generation. So, Some of that will come
[16:32] up later, but I appreciate all the staff
[16:34] work on that.
[16:39] All right. Anything else?
[16:42] Okay, Councilwoman Hansen.
[16:45] >> Um, I have to apologize because I don't
[16:48] know the status of the historic
[16:49] preservation committee. I haven't been
[16:50] to a meeting in several months. Um, and
[16:53] need to get back at that. Um, my concern
[16:56] would be that I'm hoping as we're
[16:58] looking at the budget for next year that
[17:00] we could explore the possibilities of an
[17:03] adaptive sports program
[17:05] um with Callaway County Special
[17:07] Services.
[17:10] >> Thank you.
[17:14] All right. Uh, Council Heni is absent
[17:16] tonight. Councilwoman Rail,
[17:20] >> I have had more than several concerns
[17:23] from constituents in my ward with regard
[17:27] to mowing, with regard to flooding of
[17:31] their backyards, from the rain, with
[17:33] regarding it doesn't really matter. Just
[17:36] quite quite several phone calls and
[17:40] every single time I bring it to the
[17:42] city, they address it. I don't know that
[17:46] they take care of it right away, but
[17:47] they address it. So, I just want my
[17:50] constituents to know
[17:52] that I do take it where it needs to go
[17:54] and it is addressed and I don't know if
[17:56] it's solved immediately, but I feel very
[17:59] confident that it will be and I thank
[18:01] you all for doing that.
[18:05] » As sometimes answered, it's not the
[18:07] city's responsibility, but it's always
[18:09] good to check in. Thank you,
[18:11] Councilwoman Reclu.
[18:14] So, good evening everyone. Um, I jump on
[18:19] what Marine said. Um, we have water in
[18:21] our backyard right now. There's a lot of
[18:23] construction going on at South
[18:26] and uh, so yeah, we've got a lot of
[18:29] problems sit out there and uh, we deal
[18:31] with it one at a time. Yes. Every time
[18:33] that I have approached city to talk
[18:34] about this kind of thing, you know,
[18:36] there are things they can't repair. This
[18:38] is a homeowner's responsibility on some
[18:40] of these things, but we are bring it to
[18:42] us and we will try to take care of what
[18:44] we can. And that's all I have tonight.
[18:46] Thank you.
[18:47] >> Thank you,
[18:49] Councilman Washington.
[18:52] >> Thank you. Uh uh just uh I don't believe
[18:56] we had a park board meeting since last
[19:00] time. Uh the concern I have uh I just
[19:03] like to have an update. Uh I on the
[19:08] Crestwood about the sidewalks and just
[19:11] uh I know we had a grant and that things
[19:14] I think things have been pushed to push
[19:16] back. I just get an update for the
[19:17] people that might be listening about the
[19:20] sidewalks and things that we're looking
[19:22] to do in the future over there.
[19:24] >> Mr. Dunlap, would you like to come on
[19:26] down? I
[19:26] >> think we have a meeting on that.
[19:29] >> Thank you. I am sure Daryl will cover
[19:30] that in his comments.
[19:35] » Yeah, we've been working with the state
[19:37] to get that grant moved on on through
[19:39] the uh I believe tomorrow at 4:00.
[19:43] That correct, city clerk?
[19:44] >> Yes,
[19:45] >> there is a a meeting on it here open to
[19:47] the public for questions and concerns
[19:49] and we'll have the drawings and sketches
[19:50] here at that time for anybody wants to
[19:52] stop by.
[19:53] >> Okay. Thank you. And
[19:53] >> that's here.
[19:55] >> Yes, it is here.
[19:57] >> Thank you.
[20:01] Anything else?
[20:02] >> No.
[20:02] >> All right. Thank you.
[20:04] >> All right. We'll move on to resolutions.
[20:06] Do we have anything on 3617?
[20:11] » Thank you very much. No. Um 3617. We
[20:14] asked for you guys to postpone to this
[20:16] meeting. At this time, Tom, our city
[20:18] attorney, is still finalizing some of
[20:20] the details. So, personally, I think we
[20:23] can just let this one die and then when
[20:25] it's time to bring it back, we will
[20:26] bring it back to you. I I hate to have
[20:28] you postpone it again uh as we're
[20:30] waiting. I don't I want to be efficient
[20:32] with your time. So,
[20:34] I would just let this one die.
[20:37] >> Okay.
[20:38] >> Unless there's any opposition to that.
[20:39] >> I'm really going to say I'd really like
[20:41] to see it next time get get through it.
[20:44] >> I've heard your I've heard your opinion,
[20:46] Deputy Mayor.
[20:49] >> Mr. Bor,
[20:50] >> resolution 3617, agreement with the
[20:53] invoice cloud electronic bill payment
[20:55] service. A resolution authorizing the
[20:58] director of administration on the behalf
[20:59] of the city of Bulton, Missouri to sign
[21:02] all necessary document in relations to
[21:04] an agreement with the invoice cloud
[21:06] incorporated for electronic billing
[21:09] presentment and payment service. I make
[21:12] a motion that we pass resolution 3617
[21:17] at tonight's council meeting.
[21:19] >> Before somebody makes a second.
[21:21] >> No, it's not possible.
[21:22] >> It's okay. It's okay. Before someone
[21:24] makes a second, just know if we don't
[21:25] get a second, it will automatically die.
[21:27] So, we can just sit here for a moment in
[21:29] silence. And I'm assuming I'm not going
[21:31] to hear a second.
[21:32] >> I kind of figured that.
[21:33] >> That's okay. You were procedurally you
[21:35] were fine. So, if uh I will turn it back
[21:38] over to the deputy mayor, but I'm not
[21:39] hearing a second. [laughter]
[21:41] >> Just getting nervous. That's fine.
[21:47] » All right. Uh resolution 3617 dies for
[21:51] lack of a second.
[21:53] Thank you. All right. Presenter. Um,
[21:56] resolution 3618.
[21:59] I'm down on the docket for this one. So,
[22:02] resolution 3618, agreement with Twiling
[22:04] Construction Company for grave
[22:05] excavation services. A resolution
[22:08] authorizing the mayor on behalf of the
[22:10] city of Fton, Missouri to execute a
[22:12] contract with Twiling Construction
[22:13] Company of Fton, Missouri for grave
[22:16] excavation services and establish an
[22:18] effective date. I move adoption of
[22:20] resolution 3618 at tonight's council
[22:22] meeting.
[22:23] >> Second.
[22:24] >> Motion to second. Any discussion of of
[22:27] this item?
[22:29] >> I would just simply note that we have
[22:31] had u a long-standing agreement with Mr.
[22:34] Twilman and have appreciated a good
[22:36] working relationship with him for many
[22:37] years. Again, the city goes out Kathy,
[22:40] it's approximately every five years. Is
[22:41] that three years? We go out to bid every
[22:44] three years for this. Um, again, he was
[22:45] the low bidder and we've been very
[22:47] pleased with his work for many years.
[22:49] >> I know it's been
[22:51] first
[22:53] probably close 10 years.
[22:55] >> All right. Anything else? All those in
[22:58] favor, please say yes.
[23:00] >> Yes.
[23:01] >> Those opposed? No. The yeses have it.
[23:04] Thank you. Resolution 3619, Mrs. Hansen.
[23:07] This is Clean Water State Revolving
[23:09] Fund.
[23:10] >> Yes. Uh, resolution 3619,
[23:14] Clean Water State Revolving Fund,
[23:16] authorized representatives. A resolution
[23:18] authorizing the filing of an application
[23:20] with the Missouri Department of Natural
[23:22] Resources Clean Water State Revolving
[23:25] Fund Program for financial assistance
[23:27] under the Missouri Clean Water Law,
[23:29] chapter 644.
[23:33] I would like to make a motion to adopt
[23:35] resolution 3619 at this council meeting.
[23:42] I'll second
[23:46] motion a second to adopt 136 3619 at
[23:49] tonight's council meeting. Any
[23:50] discussion of this m matter?
[23:53] >> I would just clarify this is just
[23:55] solidifying the number or the specific
[23:57] individuals who are allowed to get
[23:59] information or sign particular documents
[24:01] related to the wastewater treatment
[24:03] plant program and the funding that's
[24:05] associated with that. So, we do need
[24:07] this agreement with DNR accordingly.
[24:12] » All those in favor, please say yes.
[24:14] >> Yes.
[24:15] >> Those opposed?
[24:17] >> Guesses have it. Thank you. All right.
[24:20] We are now to ordinances. The first
[24:22] ordinance we have is an emergency
[24:23] ordinance. It's uh bill number 1796,
[24:27] airport infrastructure grant agreement
[24:29] amendment.
[24:31] Uh do you have any words to say before
[24:33] we go into this, sir? Um I would just
[24:35] note that we were recently made aware of
[24:37] a grant deadline um which unfortunately
[24:39] is going to occur prior to our next
[24:41] meeting. So the city of Fulton tries not
[24:43] to have any um emergency ordinances
[24:46] unless they're really really needed and
[24:48] we can justify the reasoning behind it.

[24:52] get approximately $137,000 in grant
[24:55] funding while our portion that we pay
[24:57] out is approximately $1,397.
[25:00] So really important funding for our
[25:02] airport and uh we wish we could have
[25:04] known about this a little earlier

[25:07] at this evening's meeting.

[38:01] discussions with the county clerk, I
[38:02] believe the commissioners and the county
[38:04] assessor's office that they needed to
[38:06] reconfigure the number a couple times.
[38:09] So, uh while I can't speak to their
[38:12] reconfigurations or what prompted that,
[38:15] we were notified that there was a change
[38:16] and then received our proforma from the
[38:18] state auditor's office.
[38:21] >> It [clears throat] seems like we're
[38:22] always pushing the
[38:24] Mike's opinion. We we're always pushing
[38:26] this at the last minute. Um I know the
[38:29] timeline's pretty tight for the for the
[38:31] county, but really be nice to get this a
[38:34] little earlier than the last meeting.

[38:42] motion? All righty. Hearing none. All
[38:45] those in favor, please say yes.

[44:22] >> Thank you. Bill number 1792
[44:25] has passed.
[44:27] That concludes our ordinances. Uh move
[44:30] us to announcements. Next city council
[44:33] meeting will be held on Tuesday,
[44:34] September 8th at 6:30 p.m. The city of
[44:38] Bolton, Legends Reclex, and the solid
[44:40] waste department will be closed Monday,
[44:42] September 7, in observance of the Labor
[44:44] Day holiday. Emergency service will
[44:47] remain in normal operation. The Fton
[44:49] City Council will meet only once in
[44:51] September due to the Missouri Municipal
[44:53] League conference. Any other
[44:55] announcements to anyone?
[44:57] >> Uh, one thing obviously schools started
[44:59] this week and with that brings a lot of
[45:01] additional traffic and um, you know,
[45:03] some different patterns with that
[45:05] traffic. So, just a reminder to the
[45:07] community, mind those school zones.
[45:09] Please be careful when driving,
[45:11] especially when pedestrians are nearby.
[45:13] Uh, and practice a little bit of
[45:14] patience. um school buses and school
[45:18] personnel I know are working very
[45:19] diligently to try to keep everyone safe
[45:21] and get everyone in the facilities in a
[45:23] timely manner. So you might notice some
[45:25] changes. Plan a couple extra minutes to
[45:27] get yourself to where you need to go.
[45:29] And then lastly, I just want to say
[45:30] thank you again to staff. It's been warm
[45:33] again lately. So for everybody who's
[45:35] been out there working very, very hard.
[45:37] We appreciate all that you're doing and
[45:39] we want you to stay cool and safe. Um,
[45:41] but whether it's making sure that your
[45:43] trash gets picked up or taking care of
[45:44] the roadways or making sure that you
[45:46] know where there should be a stop sign
[45:48] because sometimes people take those. Uh,
[45:51] we appreciate all of that kind of stuff
[45:52] being taken care of, especially when
[45:54] it's really hot outside. So, thank you
[45:56] guys very much.
[45:57] >> Thank you for those. I was going to
[45:58] bring up the school. Thank you for that.
[46:00] Any other announcements? Anyone? We have
[46:04] no need for executive session tonight.
[46:11] Okay, M
[46:12] >> Mr. Washington, Mr. Clue, non-debatable.
[46:16] Any All those in favor, please say yes.
[46:20] Those opposed, you stay around, I guess.
