Eastern Commissioner Baeza

A little over 24 hours after MoDOT forced the City of Sedalia to close the Washington Street Bridge to due to safety concerns, the Pettis County Commission stepped up and donated $200,000 to help with the cost of repairing the railroad bridge.

Guest speaker will be Eastern Commissioner Israel Baeza, who will talk about county roads and other issues facing Pettis County.

A dozen people came to the Pettis County Courthouse Wednesday morning to speak with all three Commissioners about a proposed landfill.
