At its annual meeting, the City of Fenton, Missouri Public Facilities Authority confirmed its continued existence, approved a correction to its May 23, 2024, minutes and elected its officers by voice vote.

The meeting is held once a year to maintain the authority so the city can consider future financing options, Aaron, the city's director of public works, told directors. “This is just a public facilities authority that the city established long ago. It allows the city the opportunity to consider financing, but it does not require it,” Aaron said, adding that dissolving the authority would itself incur costs because of its corporate status.

The clarification of the minutes arose during approval of the May 23, 2024, record. Alderman Susan Jokers questioned an attendance line that listed her as absent; the body directed staff to correct the minutes to show her present, and the motion to approve the minutes with that correction passed after a motion and second and a voice vote.

Directors then conducted elections. By nomination and second, the board re-elected Brian to serve as president and Harry to serve as vice president. Susan Jokers was elected secretary-treasurer, and Jimmy Lang was elected assistant secretary. Each election was moved, seconded and carried by voice votes with no objections recorded on the transcript.

Beyond the procedural items — roll call, approval of minutes, and officer elections — no new business was presented at the meeting. The presiding officer closed with a motion to adjourn that was seconded and carried by voice vote.

The authority remains on the books to preserve the city's option to pursue financing should a future capital project require it; no financing decisions or agreements were proposed or authorized at this meeting.
