<br />Mayor Welsch met with staff members from Congressman Clay’s office, and from the <br />offices of Senator Clair McCaskill and Roy Blunt. She made a personal plea to <br />remember U City’s needs during federal budget discussions. She also met with the <br />new director of MSD. She asked MSD to attend the community meeting and to share <br />what their plans are for University City, much of the work they are planning to do to <br />deal with what flood issues that could take place over the next generation. Mayor <br />Welsch said she was also told that someone from Mr. Dooley’s office in St. Louis <br />County would attend. She also invited Ms. Hazel Erby and Mr. Pat Dolan, from the St. <br />Louis County Council, to attend. Mayor Welsch reminded people of the Sutter Meyer <br />House last open houses for the summer this weekend and the Fair U City planning <br />meeting on Tuesday evening. <br /> <br />Mr. Price asked the City Manager to get some clarification of the ownership of the <br />channel because at the last meeting it was mentioned that the residents owned part of <br />it and in the sixteen years he has been in University City, he never heard of the <br />residents owning any part of it. Mr. Price said that disturbed him as it allowed MSD to <br />abdicate its responsibility for that channel. He said the City cannot have MSD pushing <br />its responsibility for the channel away. <br /> <br />Mayor Welsch stated that MSD would speak on that in general terms at the upcoming <br />meeting. MSD said they were limited in what they could say because of some on- <br />going litigation. <br /> <br />Q. ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Mayor Shelley Welsch adjourned the meeting at 7:49 p.m. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Joyce Pumm <br />City Clerk, MRCC/CMC <br /> <br />12 <br /> <br />
