St. Peters Aldermen Scheduled for First Meeting of 2012

A little snow shouldn't keep the Board of Aldermen from meeting for the first time in 2012. 

After nearly a month away from the , the Board returns for the first meeting of January, and the first time in 2012. The Board will kick things off with a 5 p.m. work session. At 7 p.m. the actual meeting will begin.

The work session will have two items of old business to discuss. The first item is an update to the utility bills and meals on wheels program. The other item is a change to the city code relating to peddlers and solicitors. 

Other items on the work session site include: 

• Jerry Hollingsworth is proposing have two to four local businesses attend each Board of Aldermen meeting to inform the city about their existence. 
• The Board will hear a presentation about police vehicle purchases. 
• Police Chief Tom Bishop will talk about police programs. 

The meeting agenda, at least the voting portion will be brief. The Board will vote on three things—two bills and a resolution. The Board will also make appointments to the Veterans Memorial Commission and the Parks, Recreation and Arts Advisory Board.
