The Board of Aldermen in Osage Beach voted to appoint April White as interim city administrator and welcomed her to the role.
"Congratulations, April. We look forward to working with you," Mayor Ross said after aldermen moved and seconded the appointment; the motion carried by voice vote.
The board also approved several routine but substantive items: a second-reading vote adopted Bill 2675, authorizing a $31,435 contract with Prime Rinse Water LLC to clean the city's water tower, and the board approved first reading of Bill 2683, the annual ordinance to disclose potential conflicts of interest and substantial interests for certain municipal officials, which must be forwarded to the state by September.
Mayor Ross announced his appointment of Bill McKay to the Dierbergs Transportation Development District; the board approved that appointment by motion. After regular business, the mayor read a notice citing RSMo. section 610.021(3) and the board voted by roll call to close the meeting and move into executive session to discuss personnel matters.
The board's actions were procedural: formal readings and subsequent votes will be required for ordinance adoptions when staff returns with final language and scheduling details.
