June 23, 2026 — Meeting Transcript

This is a transcript of the Clayton, MO City Council meeting held June 23, 2026. It includes a discussion session on proposed fiscal year 2027 special events and related planning, conversation about landscape and tree-protection regulations (including discussion of keystone species and tree-permitting practices), and remarks on LEED and PUD review processes. The transcript also contains financial reporting through March 31, 2026 (first and second quarters), noting year-over-year sales tax increases of 5.5% in the first quarter and 10.4% through the second quarter and attributing a portion of the increase to a new fire sales tax that began collecting October 1. The meeting ends with a motion and roll-call vote to hold a closed session under multiple sections of Missouri statutes for legal, real estate, personnel, proprietary information, and public safety/security matters; the roll call shows all listed council members and the mayor voting in the affirmative.

The event goals that the council handed to us, I want to say four or five years ago now at this point. So these are the marks that we try to meet as we go through our planning process. Just as a reminder, because this comes up several times about I will only be presenting a few events, but this is just a reminder as we flip through the calendar here that we also have parks events and other community events going on. So most of the time in good weather, our calendar is relatively full, keeping in mind that we also are utilizing the same police department and public works staff to help us with all of these events. The family oriented events are in blue, the all ages events are in yellow. We also have some other events going on without confirmed dates as of yet. So you can see the open house, the vehicle fair and the Chapman Plaza for October. In November, the only event that we will be proposing is the block series And then December, we've also tried to identify the community events going on. So the Clayton School District break is on there. Clayton Restaurant Week again, we do that twice a year. So there's a winter and summer edition. February, we will not have any events proposed. March is the spring break. So we avoid that primarily also. and the scavenger hunt through the parks and rec. The new one that we'll talk about in a few minutes is the Central Social.
