HANNIBAL â Palmyra City Council members discussed an annual increase for business licenses, citing several costs which have gone up since the $10 license fee was set in 1973.
City Clerk Deena Parsons said increased costs included the hourly rate for city employees, insurance changes, exemptions for self-employed residents and more time to process the applications if a document needs to be resubmitted. City Council members agreed to assess the amount of time and the increase in costs to determine a fee increase planned for the beginning of the calendar year.

City Council members approved a one-year extension to the contract with Area Disposal for business and residential waste removal services.

A White Hall ordinance requires mandatory trash services through Area Disposal for residential customers and includes an exclusivity clause.Nattapong Wongloungud
WHITE HALL City Council has asked the city attorney to send cease-and-desist letters to Robert Sanders Trash and some residents to prevent a breach of contract with Area Disposal.
It was brought to the council’s attention that some residential customers in the city were not paying Area Disposal, or using Robert Sanders for trash services, which causes a breach of contract with the trash company and violates the city’s trash ordinance.
