Mayor Knudtson presented a plaque to Public Works employee Mike Crutcher for his many years
of service to the City and wishes him well in his retirement.
Mr. Tim Blattner appeared on behalf of the River Heritage Mural Association and presented an
update on the Mississippi River Tales Mural which will be painted on the downtown floodwall.
There will be 24 feature panels to reveal the history of what happened in a one mile stretch of the
Mississippi over the last 1500 years. Approximately two-thirds of the cost will come from a
federal grant, and the other one-third will come from private donations and sponsorships of the 24
panels. Mr. Blattner stated that if anyone is interested in being a sponsor to contact him or the
Convention and Visitors Bureau Office.
Ms. Joyce Hunter and Mr. Brandon Ivey of Westfield Shoppingtown appeared and reviewed the
information they previously presented regarding the Sales Tax Holiday. They said that there are
approximately 10 to 12 states that participate in a sales tax holiday, and a majority are for the back
to school shopping season. The tax savings are open to everyone who purchases the particular
items listed in the holiday. A sales tax holiday will invigorate all aspects of the retail industry and
will produce increases in other shopping areas not included in the tax.
Ms. Catherine Dunlap of Old Town Cape appeared and reviewed information from a survey
completed by Downtown Merchants on the sales tax holiday. Of the ten merchants surveyed who
will be affected, most are in favor of the holiday; however, several were not familiar with it, had
not received information on it, and did not know the full impact to them.
Mr. Herbst commended Airport Manager Bruce Loy and his staff on the excellent work they did
on the Boy Scout Camporee that was held this past weekend at the airport.
Mayor Knudtson stated he attended the Emergency Responders Committee Meeting in Jefferson
City. At the meeting Director Tim Daniels stated that at the recent disaster exercise held at the
airport, Cape conducted the most cohesive and organized activity in the state, and the area has
demonstrated true organization in HAZMAT response. The Mayor commended Assistant Fire

ief Mark Hasheider, Mr. Loy and goTice Chief Steve Strong on the planning and coordination
this exercise.
Ms. Ritter stated that this past week city staff held a meeting with the residents of the Windwood
and White Oaks area near Bloomfield Road to find out if they were interested in city services
when these are extended to Prestwick Plantation. City staff discussed future plans for the area and
discussed financing options for the improvements if the residents were interested. She stated that
after the meeting she was not sure how much interest there was in this. City Manager Doug Leslie
continued that since the meeting, residents of the White Oak area have expressed an interest in a
study for providing utilities for this area, and they will be submitting a letter to this effect.
At the request of the Mayor, Mr. Leslie explained that last Saturday evening, a tornado warning
was issued for Cape Girardeau County, and the University sounded its emergency sirens. The 911
center and media were flooded with phone calls from residents, and they served their purpose in
getting their attention. The NOAA weather radios did sound, and the public service
announcement on the local channels worked well. There are still issues of notification of bad
weather in open areas, such as parks. The City has talked with the University about adding on to
their siren system in a limited fashion in key outdoor locations. Mayor Knudtson stated that the
City is continually working to improve methods of weather warnings; however, this does come
with a price.
Mayor Knudtson reported on the following:
1. He recognized Parks and Recreation Director Dan Muser for his work on the Steamboat Classic
Triathlon and Friends of the Park Day.
2. He thanked and congratulated Public Works Director Tim Gramling and his staff for hosting
the Missouri Water and Wastewater Conference.
3. The Optimist Club Youth in Government Day will be held Wednesday, May 5, and all Council
Members are invited to participate.
Mr. Leslie reported on the following construction projects:
• South Kingshighway/ Silver Springs Road: MoDOT has received all of their approvals
with the exception of the Historical Clearance. It will be bid after July 1, will be under
construction this summer, and should be done by the beginning of the school year. This
project is funded 50/50 by MoDOT and the City.
• North Kingshighway/Mt. Auburn Road: An additional right turn lane and a through lane
will be constructed on Kingshighway after school is dismissed.
• Mt. Auburn/Route K/Farrar: This project has been put out for bid and construction will
begin in late summer. There will be a dual left turn lane onto Mt. Auburn and signals at
Farrar. This project is funded by MoDOT.
• Minnesota Street Reconstruction: Bid opening is scheduled for May 18. Construction will
begin after school is out and should be completed over the summer.
• Silver Springs Road Phase IV: The contractor finished placing concrete for the street. He
still has to construct the remaining sidewalk, seal joints and finish the grading.
• Mississippi River Walk: The contractor is about 70 % complete with this project. He has
about 250 feet of walk completed and is working on the footings for the overlooks and rest of
the trail.
Mr. Leslie presented the Fire Sales Tax Presentation to the Council, which is currently being given
to numerous city groups and other groups. Brochures will be distributed in May through utility bill
inserts and will be given to all the civic groups. The Mayor encouraged citizens to ask questions
about the fire tax proposal.

Proceedings of the City Council, City of Cape Girardeau, Mo.
Regular Session May 3, 2004 376
The City Council discussed issues relating to the Sales Tax Holiday approved by the State
Legislature, including the timing, the financial impact to the city, and the pros and cons to opting
out of the holiday. Mayor Knudtson stated that the Chamber of Commerce Board will take action
on this issue at their meeting on May 4, and it is important that the city be in step with the
Chamber. If the Chamber endorses the sales tax holiday and if the Council desires to participate,
then it will not be necessary for the Council to take any action. However, he questioned whether a
motion should be approved simply to clarify the issue. Mr. White stated that he felt the Council
should approve a motion to express its desires and make it clear to the citizens the Council's
intent. Following discussion, the Council agreed to discuss this issue and make a decision at the
next City Council meeting.
Mayor Knudtson stated that previous Councils had changed the city code relating to advisory
boards and commissions, including increasing the number of members on each board and
establishing term limits. City staff has presented to the Council proposed changes to the advisory
board ordinances, and he questioned whether or not the Council wanted to change the regulations
of these boards. Following discussion by the Council Mr. Leslie explained that a group of
employees reviewed the city codes relating to advisory boards. The group reviewed term limits
and recommends that the two -term limit be repealed; however, staff would be comfortable with a
three -term limit and allowing a board member to reapply after he or she had been off of a board for
one year. Although staff did not review the issue of the number of members on each advisory
board, they were aware that some boards are have difficulty meeting quorum. Ms. Ritter
challenged the staff to look at additional ways to get more people to apply for advisory boards,
possibly by giving presentations or sending letters to service clubs. Following further discussion,
the Council agreed to place this item on the next agenda for action, and requested information on
each advisory board including the number of vacancies, expertise required, the number of
qualified applicants on file, and how many positions have been lost to term limits.
The preliminary plat of Deevers Farm was approved upon Mr. White's motion, Mr. Herbst's
second, and the following vote: ayes, Boardman, Herbst, Hopkins, Knudtson, Purcell, Ritter,
White. Nays, none.
Upon questioning by Mr. Herbst, Mr. Leslie reported on the status of the review of the flood plain
maps for the City. Although FEMA had some questions on the review, this should not delay the
process, and it is anticipated the new maps will be adopted in December of this year.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned upon Mr. Hopkins' motion, Mr. Herbst's
second, and the following vote: ayes, Boardman, Herbst, Hopkins, Knudtson, Purcell, Ritter,
White. Nays, none.
