to discuss: 
Mayor has a new plan for Rams cash: St. Louis Mayor Cara Spencer is proposing to spend $230 million of the $255 million Rams relocation settlement on tornado relief, infrastructure repairs, and downtown revitalization. The plan still faces pushback from aldermen and advocates who want the allocation shifted — some pushing for more downtown funding, others demanding more for the tornado-damaged North Side.

Ferguson City Council rejects $1.8 billion data center proposal: The Ferguson City Council voted 3-3 with one abstention to reject a proposal that would have transformed the former Emerson Electric site into a massive data center. Residents raised concerns over environmental risks, water usage, tax abatements, and potential lost school revenue despite supporters touting significant economic benefits.

St. Louis residents offer feedback on Green Line Bus Rapid Transit: The City of St. Louis and Bi-State Development held an open house Tuesday where residents weighed in on two route options for a Bus Rapid Transit system connecting north and south St. Louis. The BRT would feature dedicated bus lanes, MetroLink-style stations, and service every 10-15 minutes — a significant upgrade from current 30-40 minute intervals.
