AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Missouri Budget Tightening: Gov. Mike Kehoe vetoed about $53M and froze an additional $441M from the $50.7B state budget as revenues lag and the pandemic surplus shrinks, with some restrictions potentially lifted later. Utility Rate Process: The Missouri Public Service Commission set a July 15 intervention deadline for Evergy Missouri West’s fuel and purchased power adjustment request, with a proposed Sept. 1 tariff change. Data Center Politics & Water: A Missouri debate is heating up over data centers—local officials weigh tax deals and public input while lawmakers consider rules on transparency, utility costs, and water impacts. Banking Restructuring: Great Southern Bank confirmed it will close three Springfield-area branches on Oct. 1 as part of restructuring. Food Safety Watch: The FDA is investigating a cyclospora outbreak tied to store-brand packaged salad mixes from Hy-Vee, Aldi and Jewel-Osco, prompting recalls. Local Business/Community: Columbia’s new downtown safety ambassador program is already credited with a rapid Narcan-assisted revival after a June 12 incident. Ag & Industry: Bayer plans to reorganize its U.S. glyphosate business under a new St. Louis-based entity, Ruveon, to manage pricing, production and logistics.
