STE. GENEVIEVE – The Ste. Genevieve Board of Aldermen may decide at its meeting Thursday whether to donate $25,000 to the Ste. Genevieve-Modoc Ferry.
Ste. Genevieve Tourism Director Aaron Smith says the money will provide some gap funding for the ferry to run until the Missouri funds kick in in August.
He urged persons concerned about the ferry attend the meeting.
“If you’d like to see the ferry keep running I think the aldermen need to see support for that initiative by a contingency of folks showing up for the meeting. I hope to see you all there,” Smith stated in an email.
The Ste. Genevieve Board of Aldermen meeting will begin at 6 p.m. Thursday in the city hall board room.
The meeting is open to the public and can be viewed on SteGenTV Channel 991 on the Spectrum Cable System and on the SteGenTV You Tube Channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@Stegentv
