[CC 1988 §20.010]
The City of Lake Saint Louis, Missouri, is incorporated and
classified as a Fourth Class City. In accordance with State law providing
for optional forms of government, the City of Lake Saint Louis has
adopted the Fourth Class form of government. Except as otherwise provided,
appointments are made by the Mayor with the consent of the majority
of the Board of Aldermen. This structure approximates the Federal
Government in that it includes the concept of separation of powers
(executive, legislative and judicial) and checks and balances. The
Board of Aldermen is the basic governing unit because it levies taxes,
appropriates monies, and makes decisions on policy matters. The Board
is the legislative body of the City of Lake Saint Louis. It adopts
local resolutions and ordinances within the framework of latitude
given it by State law.
