Water Pressure Update 💧

Kirkwood residents may be experiencing slightly lower water pressure because Kirkwood Water is receiving lower-than-normal pressure from Missouri American Water.

Due to high temperatures and increased water demand, Missouri American Water has reduced its pressure. To help reduce demand, please consider limiting lawn and garden watering through Sunday, September 6, when the current heat wave is forecast to end.

Thank you for helping conserve water during this period.

CITY COUNCIL RECAP | AUGUST 20

Missed Thursday's meetings? Here's a quick look at what the Kirkwood City Council discussed, decided and what's coming next.

WORK SESSION
Council received an overview of Chapter 100, a Missouri economic development tool being considered in connection with the proposed Double Eagle redevelopment. Discussion covered potential property tax abatement and construction sales/use tax exemptions, impacts on taxing jurisdictions, City protections and the approval process.

No Chapter 100 incentive was approved. Any agreement would require additional steps and future Council approval.

COUNCIL ACTIONS
Council:
• Approved the rezoning of 422 S. Clay Avenue from B-4 to B-2.
• Approved updates to portions of the City's Zoning and Subdivision Code.
• Gave first-reading approval to special use permits for Ivy on Monroe and an indoor arcade at 118 N. Kirkwood Road.
• Gave first-reading approval to updated regulations for bicycles, e-bikes and other alternative vehicles.
• Gave first-reading approval to a budget amendment reallocating existing funds, including temporary outsourced payroll services.

DISCUSSED
Council also held public hearings on three requests to rezone properties near North Kirkwood Road and Manchester Road for multifamily residential use. No decision was made on those rezoning requests Thursday.

WHAT'S NEXT
The North Kirkwood Road rezoning requests are scheduled for first-reading consideration September 3. Planning & Zoning is also continuing its review of the proposed Walmart drone-delivery facility and the multifamily development proposed at 345 S. Fillmore Avenue.
