Mr. Seewood presented former councilwoman Meyer with a portrait of the Bear Creek trail during Monday night’s meeting. She had a big smile on her face as she held the portrait with Mr. Seewood.

Ms. Meyer told 939 the Eagle in May that she would be resigning to focus on her health, well-being and family. Lisa Meyer has lived in Columbia since 2005. She’s also chaired the Heart of Missouri’s United Way campaign and has served as the Columbia Northwest Rotary Club president.
