Rod Jetton – District 156 <br />MO House of Representatives <br />201 West Capitol Avenue <br />Room 308 <br />Jefferson City, MO 65101 <br />Phone: 573-751-5912 <br />Fax: 573-526-9804 <br />Email: rod.jetton@house.mo.gov <br /> <br />2. Take legal action. Unfortunately, the Court’s docket has not opened up to <br />allow for the consideration of the appeal filed by the Fire Union. <br /> <br />3. Take internal action, which would affect the hours or rate of pay of our <br />employees in order to not exceed their current rate of pay. This would be a <br />tremendous disappointment to our Fire and Police staff and something I have <br />been putting off in hopes for a legal or legislative remedy. <br /> <br />Maplewood is coming out with a proposal to do just that next week.

You will also note that they intend to lift the truck traffic <br />restriction on Forest Park Parkway on May 1. The removal of the prohibition will <br />be triggered by the closure of Kingshighway. The truck prohibition will return <br />when the construction is complete in roughly two years. The City has clearly <br />voiced our disagreement with the decision of the County to allow trucks on the <br />Parkway. However, the parkway is within County jurisdiction and their decision is <br />based on regional needs to have access to Clayton, St. Louis, and BJC. <br /> <br />street <br />In response to concerns raised by residents regarding the disruption of <br />traffic by teenage residents <br />, the Police Department has developed a plan to <br />address the issue in the following manner: <br /> <br /> <br />
