The Grantwood Board of Trustees sorted out two conflicting ordinances regarding handbilling at its meeting July 20.
Chairman Kevin Kelso, Village Attorney Michael Vogt and Building Commissioner Kurt Voss discovered the conflicting ordinances after the board’s last meeting in June.
Vogt said the two bills were very different, where one permitted handbilling with no questions asked while the other was stricter, requiring people to need a pass.
The board voted unanimously to repeal the less strict of the two. Religious and political publishings are unaffected and allowed unquestionably.

Candidate filing closed Tuesday for a number of governmental positions that are up for election April 6, setting up several competitive races across South County. One of the trends this year is that many incumbents did not file to run again, so there are a number of new faces across local city and school boards.
The Mehlville fire board and the Green Park mayoral seat will see competitive races this year. Incumbent fire board Treasurer Bonnie Stegman is being challenged by a former firefighter.
Aldermanic seats in Crestwood, Green Park and Sunset Hills are also up for election, along with three seats on the Grantwood Village Board of Trustees. Green Park and Crestwood will have a number of new faces on the Board of Aldermen, but no competitive races, while Sunset Hills will have competitive races in all four wards. And for the first time in recent memory, Grantwood Village will have competitive races.
