James J. Wilson, Respondents/Cross-Appellants v. City of St. Louis, and Adam Layne, Appellant/Cross-Respondent. City…

Summary

The court held that the City of St. Louis and Alderman Boyd had standing to challenge statutory provisions governing a state-created parking commission. It affirmed the determination that provisions requiring specified municipal officers to serve on the commission violated article VI, section 22, but reversed the determination that the statutes were invalid in their entirety because the unconstitutional provisions were severable. The court struck the provisions creating the commission and requiring municipal-officer participation while leaving the remaining statutory provisions in effect.
