ST. LOUIS – The Missouri Department of Transportation and its contractor, Fred Weber Inc., will temporarily close the left turn lane from westbound Route 94 to Pitman Hill at 7 a.m. Tuesday, August 31. Pitman Hill is across Route 94 from Mid Rivers Mall Drive in St. Charles County. The turn lane will be closed for about a month to allow crews to construct a portion of the new Mid Rivers Mall Drive interchange for the Route 364 project. Drivers on westbound Route 94 need to use Kisker Road to access Pitman Hill. Drivers on eastbound 94 can still turn right onto Pitman Hill, and drivers on Mid Rivers Mall Drive can still cross Route 94 to get to Pitman Hill.

Due to scheduling conflicts the first regularly scheduled Board meeting for September will be canceled, therefore there will only be one Board meeting in September and it will be held on the fourth Thursday of the month.

In recognition of September being National Preparedness Month the City of Weldon Spring is hosting two events each on Saturday, September 11. The first event is the “Annual Disaster Preparedness Exercise” and is specifically for Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) members in the St. Louis region. It will be a disaster simulation and exercise that will test CERT member’s skills and help them hone their emergency response techniques learned in training. The second event is “Citizen Preparedness Day” and is open to the general public and will be held at the Independence Elementary School off Patriotic Trail in Weldon Spring. There will be guest speakers, emergency responders and equipment, free handouts and displays. See the Press Release for a complete overview of details on both events.

There will be no Planning & Zoning meeting for the month of August.

Due to a fire in our City Maintenance Building where we also hold the 'Senior Citizen Day' event we must cancel and postpone this event. Normally it is held during the month of May. Tentatively we are rescheduling the event for sometime in September. More details will be forthcoming as the date approaches. Should you have any questions please contact Pat Oldcroft, Administrative Assistant, at (636) 441-2110 ext. 100.
