As one developer moves forward with a multi-million dollar project on one side of the city, on the other, business owners are starting to grumble over their own necessary remodeling projects in order to meet minimum code requirements.
The problem isn’t for current tenants but for new occupants of buildings on the Strip.
As remodeling starts on the interior of the building to match the needs of the new tenant, the city requires an inspection of that construction. Part of that inspection is to ensure the building is meeting all current code requirements.
If the building doesn’t pass inspection, the city can withhold granting an occupancy permit.
Some business owners are saying the city is taking it too far and upgrades should only happen when the building switches hands.

A moustache by any other name is still a moustache. That doesn’t stop the pencil-thin, the handlebar, the Fu Manchu, Frank Zappa’s signature ‘stache or even a few straggly hairs from adorning men’s upper lips.
Firefighters at Lake Ozark Fire Protection District will be auctioning off their facial hair as a unique fundraiser for the district's benevolent association. Those who didn't have moustaches before are quickly growing them out and those who already did are quickly putting price tags on theirs.
For example, Fire Marshal James Doyle says he'll shave off his moustache for $500, his hair for $1,000 and his eyebrows for $2,000.
The money raised will be used for a Shop with a Fireman event the fire district's benevolent association is planning for in the fall.

Mayor Johnnie Franzeskos hasn’t even made a final decision on an impeachment proceedings ordinance, but already Alderman Susan Drummond has served him with an amended Bill of Impeachment and a resolution to set a hearing based on the city’s newly voted on rules.
Drummond is alleging Franzeskos signed a Right-of-Way Use Agreement without authorization from the board as well as consenting to thousands of dollars of remodeling work performed on the new City Hall/ Police Department building without first taking bids for the work. As construction was being completed, Drummond is also alleging Franzeskos violated prevailing wage laws.
