Board of Aldermen - November 13, 2026

The City of St. Louis Board of Aldermen meeting was held November 13, 2026. Procurement- and funding-related actions included adoption of the perfection consent calendar, which contained Board Bill 93, authorizing a first amendment to St. Louis Lambert International Airport’s luggage cart rental agreement (AL-022). Board Bill 104, concerning the Mayor’s 2027 annual action plan and HUD community development, emergency-solutions, and HOPWA funds, was perfected; it authorizes relevant departments to execute contracts needed to expend the funds. The transcript references an estimated CDBG allocation but does not provide a reliably clear amount. Board Bill 117, establishing a sports event attraction fund and allowing the St. Louis Sports Commission to expend funds subject to approval, was introduced and referred to committee, not approved for expenditure at this meeting.

The board also advanced tornado-recovery and infrastructure funding measures: a Budget and Public Employee Committee do-pass recommendation included an appropriation totaling $3,417,273 for demolition and repair costs, with part of the funding identified as Prop S funds, and Board Bill 110 received a Public Infrastructure Utilities Committee do-pass recommendation for accepting and spending Missouri transportation-agency reimbursements for tornado-damaged traffic signals, streetlights, and signs. Board Bill 59, allowing the existing half-cent sales tax to fund either the North-South Metro line or bus rapid transit, passed final passage by a 12–1 vote. No vendor selection or new competitive solicitation was identified. The meeting also included courtesy resolutions and presentations, including recognition of St. Louis City SC and Rung for Women.
