Board of Aldermen

Over the next eight to 10 weeks, an aldermanic committee will draw a new map of the city with half as many wards. The Board of Aldermen is legally required to do so by the end of the year in compliance with a charter amendment approved by voters in 2012.

The proposed charter amendment aims to change the way St. Louis wards are drawn and bring more transparency over conflicts of interest on the Board of Aldermen. If the petition drive is successful, residents would vote on it in a November special election.
