Ballwin boards weigh building codes, e-bike rules, and rezonings; no decisions yet published
Ballwin city boards met three times in the past two weeks to take up zoning changes, building code updates, and stormwater planning. None of the meetings produced published minutes or vote tallies, so no final decisions have been reported. The most consequential items are on the Board of Aldermen's August 10 agenda, which includes adoption of the 2024 International Building Codes and three rezoning requests.

- **Bill 5059** – Arbor Crest rezoning
- **Bill 5060** – Arbor Trails rezoning
- **Resolution** – Authorizing a utility tax audit
The agenda also listed a possible closed session for personnel and employee negotiations. Minutes have not yet been published, so the outcome of these items is not known.
