Phase 2 of the Grant's Trail Extension did not score high enough to secure an STP grant recommendation from @EWGateway, but it seems we have locked down a recommendation for a Carbon Reduction Program (CRP) grant, which offers very similar terms: ewgateway.org/wp-content/upl…
A local developer is headed before P&Z on Wednesday to seek a zoning change for 119 W. Woodbine from the current B-4 Planned Commercial to B-2 General Business, suggesting that he would use such a change to eventually pursue the development of four townhomes on the narrow site

Hoping this marks a new era of SLU’s relationship to its surrounding neighborhoods. Really can’t get much worse than the approach the Pestello administration has taken.

@Kirkwood_Gadfly @EWGateway Thank goodness - Lets ride!!
MoDOT pending project on S Kirkwood rd request for crash data was denied. MoDOT claims they are not able to share crash data. How can they utilize their SAFER program when they veil crash data? SAFER is a marketing handle that lacks substance.
Where is her data to back her dangerous position? Red light cameras Fixed units can reduce crashes on urban principal arterials up to: for all crashes. 54% 4for injury crashes. 47% FHWA data. Facts and data count. fox2now.com/news/you-paid-…
@gavinbena @Kirkwood_Gadfly It’s clearly the superiority of Kirkwood residents who are better than everyone else.
Kirkwood and Manchester run Missouri apparently lol
50% of Missouri's last 6 US Senators have been from within this circle. 40% of the major Democratic candidates for statewide executive office in 2024 are from this circle The highest voter turnout area out of anywhere in the state is in this circle.
Cardinals season and the sprint to collect signatures to get a constitutional amendment protecting abortion rights on the Missouri ballet both kicked into gear this past week. riverfronttimes.com/news/cardinals…
@RawlingsSports Is this easy to walk to from Busch stadium?
@RawlingsSports Weird location. Should be at Ballpark Village.

@Kirkwood_Gadfly @dbeebestl Well Glendale is in the circle-we have to be, Schmitt is here-but as for Webster, I couldn’t say. At some point it’s just random chance, or maybe there’s something in the Kirkwood School District warer supply lol

With a few hundred apartments slated behind it and CityPark in front of it, this 1/3 portion of Schlafly parking lot is City owned land & leased to Schlafly for a $1, maybe it’s time to hike that price or preferably put out a RFP for redevelopment.
@Kirkwood_Gadfly Democrats are more likely to default to women candidates over men
Meacham Park is a 70% Black formerly-ish segregated precinct in Kirkwood, and though this sounds bad, I had to remove the outlier just to see if the trends held up. And they largely do, less pronounced, but going the same directions.
The two least-polarized coming out on top makes sense, they were the second/third choices for both sides. But I've really no clue why Ruzicka correlated so strongly with Republicans. Name? Here's the data, just took all the precincts and compared Biden's 2020 voteshare to theirs.
How did partisanship affect the Kirkwood City Council race? - The two most popular were the least polarizing - Jaksetic, the only woman, and Sears, the only incumbent, correlated with Democrats - Republicans correlated more with Rheinnecker, the only R donor, and... Ruzicka (?)
