For information on how to file, please call the City Clerk’s office during regular business hours, Monday through Friday—except for designated holidays—at 660.627.1225. There is only one City Council position on the ballot for a three-year term.

Winter Weather is Here We would like to remind you that when winter weather comes, please be prepared to shovel your public sidewalks! City ordinance requires either the tenant or owner of a property to remove snow and ice from public sidewalks within 24 hours of the end of a snow event. We see more and more people using public sidewalks for exercise, recreation, and walking to work or school. Please be considerate of your neighbors and ensure your sidewalks are clear!
For more information, contact Codes Enforcement at 660.627.1272.
