Republic Services Renewal
The City of Ballwin bid out for a new trash provider for the next six years. Bids were received and read aloud at the Ballwin Government Center on June 10th. Republic Services (Allied Services) was the lowest bidder, so the Board of Aldermen voted last month to continue on with Republic Services. The new rates are above, and begin on January 1st, 2023.
New Police Station Construction
The new Ballwin Police Station is really starting to take shape! Steel beams are being put into place, and you can really start to see how the building will look. Road closures on Kehrs Mill just past Ballpark Drive could happen sporadically, so keep an eye out for barriers.
The new site is located at the intersection of Kehrs Mill Road and Ballpark Drive, next door to Metro West Fire and across the street from Ballwin Public Works. The total cost of the project is approximately $13.6 million and is being financed with no debt to the City. Funds for the project are coming from the City’s fund reserves and federal stimulus money.
