Road Board Meeting 2026-06-17

The SCCMOTV Road Board meeting held on June 17, 2026, focused primarily on reviewing and discussing several transportation infrastructure projects and funding applications. Key procurement-related topics included a $2.689 million TIP application from the city of Cotleville for pedestrian and safety improvements along Motherhead Road and Weiss Road, a $6 million development road project in the city of Forserel involving right-of-way acquisition and construction cost sharing with a developer, and a $1.67 million road extension project in unincorporated St. Charles County (Perry Kate extension) with county highway maintenance planned post-construction. The board also reviewed a significant $6.6 million roadway request from Mercy Wentzville hospital development, with the road board asked to fund half of the cost. The meeting included a motion to approve funding for the Mercy project, which passed with one abstention. Discussions highlighted the importance of developer contributions, right-of-way acquisition, and coordination with MODOT and local municipalities. The board also noted upcoming federal and state funding allocations totaling approximately $46 million for related projects and the potential for project phasing due to right-of-way costs. No new contracting vehicles or policy changes were discussed.
