Curious Louis Answers 4 More Questions About Proposed City-County Merger

The group Better Together submitted its proposal for a merger of St. Louis and St. Louis County in January. The plan calls for a statewide vote in 2020, when Missouri residents would decide on the future of the city and county. The plan would consolidate several municipal functions including police departments, a prosecutor and an assessor.

Residents of the city and country continue to have question regarding the merger, which would consolidate several key functions of the St. Louis and St. Louis County region.

The plan has also spurred both praise and criticism. Many have asked how this plan will impact their way of life and affect political power.
