The Board of Aldermen has reduced the City's 2016 Property Tax Rate to .3240 which is among the lowest in St. Charles County.
FIFTH STREET-
For many years, the Cottleville Community Improvement District has discussed much needed improvements for Fifth Street in Cottleville's historic district. The intersection at Highway N and Fifth Street is congested and too often, accidents occur at this location. A consultant has been engaged to design and plan possible improvements to Fifth Street in Old Town Cottleville from Highway N to St. Charles Street. These improvements could include an improved storm water system, curbs, sidewalks, parking, better street signage and street lighting that would resemble our recent improvements on Main Street. While planning and design is currently underway, the construction phase for any Fifth Street improvements is not yet completely funded; therefore a construction timeline has not been set.
BUCHHEIT LAKE
-
The trail at Buchheit Lake in Scott A. Lewis Park is now paved and open for use. Regrading, seeding, and other punch list items will be completed soon.
This trail and other park improvements such as the pavilion, parking lot, BBQ pit, bathrooms and boat ramp were made possible via donation. The pavilion is now available for reservations at www.cityofcottleville.com.
STREET SLAB REPLACEMENT-
You may have noticed street improvements in your neighborhood. We have made slab replacement a priority starting first with aged subdivisions. To report slabs in need of repair please contact
rich.francis@cityofcottleville.com or 636-498-6565 ext 202.
KOUNTZ FORT TRAIL UPDATE-
This long awaited trail by the Brittany Place residents is located in the rear of Brittany Place subdivision and travels through the wooded flood plain and wetlands into the back of Legacy Park. Due to its location, the City provided a graded, mulched, and tree lined trail in 2015. However, t
he historic 2015 December flood took its toll on those recent improvements. The Kountz Fort Trail is often discussed. Rich Francis, our City Administrator, has some ideas he hopes to implement to help make the trail more accessible through out the year. This wet summer has caused even wetter conditions at the Kountz Fort Trail including standing water. This has again delayed improvement plans, however, myself and your aldermen have requested it be a priority.
HIGHWAY N SHARED USE PATH
-
Design and right-of-way acquisition for this project is near completion. This project will provide a new (approximately 10 foot wide) pathway/sidewalk on the north
side of Highway N from Mid Rivers Mall Drive
to Mannino's Market. From their subdivision entrances, this pathway will offer, Brittany Place, Timberwood Farms, FHC and others, a nice route into the Cottleville old town area and to the park. This project has been funded by the City of Cottleville and East-West Gateway grant funding. At this point in the process, a construction timeline has not been released.
5357, 5339, & 5498
5TH STREET-
To date, the City has not received a new application to develop this vacant property and the previous application has been withdrawn by the applicant. I ensure careful and cautious consideration by myself, the Board of Aldermen, Planning and Zoning, and the Old Town Historic District Commission will be given should the applicant reapply and request to go through our process again. In addition, should the applicant reapply, public hearings will again be held.
CROSSWALK & TURN LANE-
Construction has begun to improve the intersection at Mid Rivers Mall Drive and Ohmes Road. Highlights of the improvements will include an additional left turn lane for Ohmes Road and a new crosswalk on Mid Rivers Mall Drive for pedestrian access.
As you can see, there is a lot of activity happening and plans for future progress in our beautiful city. I appreciate the opportunity to serve this City and its residents.
Sincerely,
Jim Hennessey
Mayor

Kochanski Sports Field
On Wednesday, September 21, during a ribbon cutting ceremony, the new multi-sport field in Legacy Park was named after late Mayor Stephen Kochanski.
Steve began his public service in 1987 when he was appointed to the Village's Board of Trustees
. He was selected by the Board of Trustees to serve as Chairman Pro Tem. After voters approved a ballot measure changing Cottleville's form of government from a Village to a Fourth Class City in 1993, Steve was elected as the City's first Mayor and was reelected in 1997 and served until 2001. Steve also served as the City Administrator for several years.
Following a short break from public service, Steve once again was chairing meetings at City Hall on the Board of Adjustments and various other Boards. Following his retirement from Laborers Local 660, he came to work in the City's Parks and Recreation Department. Steve's vision has come true..... for generations to come, young people and their families will come to this place and play soccer, football, field hockey, and many other sports.We are pleased to honor a great Mayor and servant to the City of Cottleville!
