St. Louis panels OKs resolution in bid for spy agency campus

(ST. LOUIS, AP) — A committee on St. Louis’ governing board is pressing ahead with a resolution listing properties that may be subjected to eminent domain in the city’s quest to lure a federal spy agency’s new 3,100-employee regional headquarters.

That matter now heads to the full board.
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency also is considering two St. Louis County sites and a tract adjacent to Scott Air Force Base in southwestern Illinois as potential sites for its $’1.6 billion campus.
