The Missouri General Assembly concluded a two-week special legislative session on Aug. 30 by passing an economic development bill and a measure to speed up repairs on state bridges. Gov. Matt Blunt, who called the special session, is expected to sign both bills.
The economic development bill would provide $66 million a year in tax breaks to developers and other businesses and also repeals state and local laws prohibiting ticket scalping. The other measure would allow the Missouri Department of Transportation to finalize a contract to repair 800 of the state’s worst bridges over the next five years.
