At their July 15 meeting, the Marthasville Board of Aldermen voted not to revisit a proposal for an RV park at Wessel Park. Mayor David Lange said Missouri DNR officials still support the project, but bids received in June ranged from $1.29 million to $1.82 million, far exceeding the original budget. Alderman Leo Meyer, who moved to halt preliminary work last month, maintained his opposition. The city received a $375,000 LWCF matching grant in August 2025, but the plan was scaled down from 21 RV sites to three. Mayor Lange argued that abandoning the project forfeits the grant, but aldermen Meyer and Chris DeVore were not persuaded.
