Ste. Genevieve County meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Ste. Genevieve County Commission agendas list 2027 paving, courthouse windows; no votes or amounts recorded in posted files

No decisions, vote tallies, or dollar amounts appear in the Ste. Genevieve County Commission records posted for the past two weeks. All four entries are agendas, and minutes have not been published for any of them, so the records show what was scheduled for discussion rather than what the Commission did.

The items that recur across those agendas are road work and building maintenance: 2027 road paving projects, courthouse window replacement, and Cemetery Road at St. Mary.

Oct. 5: roads, windows, port board

The Commission was scheduled to meet at 8:15 a.m. on October 5, 2026 at the County Courthouse, 55 S. Third Street. The tentative agenda listed a road and bridge report, Cemetery Road at St. Mary, a fuel tank, paving project(s), a follow-up on the intersection of Middle Drive and Route 'WW'/Daniel Lacy, a reappointment to the New Bourbon Port Authority Board, courthouse window replacement, a sheriff report, and a glass crusher.

The notice states the Commission may go into closed session if approved by a majority vote of a quorum, citing Sections 610.021(1), 610.021(3), and 610.021(14) RSMo. The agenda does not include dollar amounts, ordinance numbers, or stated decisions.

Oct. 8: asphalt paving change order listed

A second agenda for October 8 listed reports on roads, bridges, and the sheriff's office, along with Cemetery Road at St. Mary, courthouse window replacement, a change order for asphalt paving, a fuel tank discussion, and paving project(s). No value for the change order is given in the posted record.

Oct. 12: regular session cancelled

The regular session scheduled for October 12 was cancelled for the observance of Columbus Day, according to the posted notice. The notice states the body may still enter a closed session to discuss legal, personnel, or protected record matters.

Oct. 15: 2027 paving on the list

The October 15 agenda listed 2027 road paving projects, courthouse window replacement, Cemetery Road at St. Mary, the intersection of Middle Drive and Route 'WW'/Daniel Lacy, and the reappointment to the New Bourbon Port Authority Board. It also listed reports on roads, bridges, and sheriff activities.

What the records do and do not show

Because only agendas were available, this roundup cannot report what the Commission approved, rejected, tabled, or spent at any of these sessions. Agenda items are listed for discussion; their appearance does not establish that action was taken. Readers should consult the official posted agendas and any minutes later published by Ste. Genevieve County for the authoritative record.

Coming up

The Commission is scheduled to meet on October 19, 2026. The posted agenda lists 2027 road paving projects, courthouse window replacement, Cemetery Road at St. Mary, health insurance renewal, and the recycling center, along with a scheduled closed session regarding litigation.

Residents interested in county road work, the courthouse window project, or the health insurance renewal may want to attend. As with the earlier meetings, the posted material is an agenda; no outcomes are recorded in advance.

Ste. Genevieve County Commission agendas cover roads, paving and courthouse windows; Oct. 12 session cancelled

The Ste. Genevieve County Commission has not published minutes for its recent meetings, so no decisions, votes or dollar amounts from the past two weeks are established in the available records. What the county has published are three agendas: one for a regular session on Oct. 5, one for Oct. 8, and a notice cancelling the Oct. 12 regular session. Each is labeled an agenda only, with minutes not yet published.

Oct. 5 agenda: roads, paving, courthouse windows

The Commission was scheduled to meet at 8:15 a.m. on October 5, 2026 at the County Courthouse, 55 S. Third Street. The tentative agenda listed discussion items including a road and bridge report, Cemetery Road at St. Mary, a fuel tank, paving project(s), a follow-up on the intersection of Middle Drive and Route "WW"/Daniel Lacy, a reappointment to the New Bourbon Port Authority Board, courthouse window replacement, a sheriff report, and a glass crusher.

The notice states the Commission may go into closed session if approved by a majority vote of a quorum, citing Sections 610.021(1), 610.021(3) and 610.021(14) RSMo. The agenda does not include dollar amounts, ordinance numbers or stated decisions.

Oct. 8 agenda: paving change order

A second agenda for Oct. 8 listed infrastructure and facility maintenance items: Cemetery Road at St. Mary, courthouse window replacement, a change order for asphalt paving, a fuel tank discussion, and paving project(s). The agenda also includes reports on roads, bridges and the sheriff's office. As with the Oct. 5 notice, the record is an agenda; no outcome is recorded. The Oct. 8 agenda likewise lists no dollar amounts or ordinance numbers.

Oct. 12 session cancelled

The regular session scheduled for Oct. 12 was cancelled due to the observance of Columbus Day. The notice states the body may still enter a closed session to discuss legal, personnel or protected record matters. No items were listed.

What the records do not show

Because minutes have not been published for any of these dates, the available record does not establish what the Commission decided, whether any item was voted on, or what any project would cost. The agendas list topics for discussion; they are not evidence that action was taken. Missing minutes do not mean nothing happened — it means the outcome is not yet documented in the material available.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings in the next 14 days appear in the records provided for Ste. Genevieve County. The published agendas and minutes remain the authoritative record; readers should check the county's official postings for updates.
