Today’s meetings of the two Soulard taxing districts are mired by opacity.

#TaxingDistrictsSTL

Most Local Taxing Districts in the City of St. Louis struggle with operating transparently & following local & state laws.
Case in point: The #SoulardSBD & #SoulardCID
Both districts are meeting this evening.
If you live/work/play in Soulard, make a plan to attend a meeting soon.
#TaxingDistrictsSTL

The #SoulardSBD meets this evening.
The inconsistent info available online from this & other local taxing districts sure makes it hard for people to keep up.

The Soulard Special Business District meets today at 6:30 p.m.
Location: Molly's in Soulard. 816 Geyer

#SoulardSBD agenda includes:
Report from #PrivatePolicingSTL contractor TCF.
"Public comments or questions" is the final agenda item.
