The St. Joseph City Commission will hold a rare Sunday meeting this weekend. The reason for the meeting is to review and vote on changes to the dredging plan by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The Corps told city officials this week that they were wanting to choose a different specification for the dredging, meaning there could be more sand that would be removed and available to be placed on the shoreline if the city was willing, but they needed to know before getting started. The dredging could begin as soon as early next week, while the city commission wasn’t set to meet until June 8. City Manager John Hodgson tells WSJM News the earliest they could have all five commissioners available to meet over Zoom was 1 p.m. Sunday.
