The City of St. Louis Board of Adjustment held a meeting on March 11, 2026, to hear appeals related to zoning and building permits. Key procurement-related discussions involved appeals for converting upper floors of properties at 4210 and 4216 Manchester Avenue into bed and breakfast establishments, which required variances due to zoning restrictions in the Forest Park Southeast Form-Based District. The board reviewed evidence, community support letters, and standard conditions for approval, including business licensing and compliance with city ordinances. Additionally, an appeal concerning the erection of seven non-illuminated banners at 200 South Broadway was discussed, focusing on signage size and visitor wayfinding for the Gateway Arch area. Support from local development organizations and city officials was noted. The board voted to approve all three appeals with standard conditions, emphasizing the benefits to the community and visitor experience. Meeting minutes were also approved, and the session was adjourned.
