The Springfield City Council will discuss the Fresh Visions Community Church development plan at its next meeting 5:30 p.m. today at City Hall.

Springfield uses a council-manager form of government, with 10 wards each represented by one elected alderman. The aldermen make up the City Council, along with the mayor, city clerk and city treasurer. Because the aldermen positions are part-time, the city has a full-time council coordinator who helps facilitate communications among constituents, aldermen and the city.

Below is the agenda on today's meeting as provided by the city.

This Ordinance approves and authorizes execution of a Professional Services agreement with Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company Inc. ("Burns & McDonnell") in an amount not to exceed $552,000.00. USEPA has finalized new ELGs that may require Dallman Station to incur additional capital and operating & maintenance costs. These regulations took effect on January 4, 2106, & may require compliance as soon as November 1, 2018. Among other requirements, the ELG requires elimination of the discharge of ash transport waters that are currently managed in ponds. At the same time, the new coal Combustion Residuals ("CCR") rule places requirements on the construction, operation & potential closure of ash ponds and landfills that must also be considered. In addition, there are other rules that further complicate compliance scheduling. The ELGs also modify the requirements for discharging Flue Gas Desulfurization waste water. Burns & McDonnell will provide professional engineering services to assist with an ELG study for Dallman Station. The affected generating units include Units 31, 32, 33 & 4. This study is the first phase of a multi-phased approach toward compliance with ELG & CCR rules. The intent of the study is to obtain a budgetary level cost & conceptual schedule of compliance with the ELGs. The study is expected to be completed within 12 months. Burns & McDonnell is not a local vendor.
