In this episode of The New Melle Pulse, we explore the accelerating development sweeping across rural Saint Charles County—and why it matters for everyone who lives, drives, or dreams of building here. This is the kickoff to our development series, featuring drone footage, firsthand accounts, historical context, and a powerful reminder that citizen voices matter. From 2,000 acres of farmland disappearing daily to rezoning battles that ignore public input, we uncover what’s really happening behind the scenes—and how you can get involved. 👇
