Body
Issue/Request:
An Ordinance approving an Agreement for the Dissolution of the Summit Woods Transportation Development District to provide the for the disbursement of excess funds of the District to the City and MoDOT.

Upon termination of the District, the TDD Act requires the District to account for all remaining funds after all indebtedness and obligations have been satisfied and thereafter disburse all remaining funds to the local transportation authority (the City), and the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission (the “MHTC”) to expend the excess funds on local and state transportation network costs in the vicinity of the District...
