Richmond Heights Mayor Jim Thomson began the city council meeting Monday with a moment of silence for Alice Provaznik, who died Sunday, Oct. 7 (see an obituary at Bopp Chapel). She was married to Richard F. Provaznik, a former Richmond Heights mayor, who died in 1995.
Chief of Police Doug Schaeffler awarded Officer John Baumgartner with his second life-saving award. Baumgartner administered the department’s narcan spray to save a subject’s life at the Bread Company at the Galleria on Aug. 24.
The mayor said Ameren Missouri plans to allow crews to bury fiber optics in the yards of 80 residents, in the right-of-way, giving them a $1 per square foot plus a $500 incentive. He said he doesn’t know if it’s mandatory.
The council approved a liquor license for Blaze Pizza, to open later this month at The Crossings at Richmond Heights.
The council talked about putting ‘deer crossing’ signs on the roads, Lay, McCutcheon and McKnight.
Any idea which streets Ameren wants to do this?
What is the purpose of this? Just because they have a righr of way for power transmission dosent mean they can use it for any purpose. What if they want to put a pipeline in? Bad precedent setting decision.Why don’t they bury power lines instead?
When will those residents be notified?
Thanks for the report
