The bill that would permit the installation of speed bumps in places where major roads intersect the jogging trail in O'Fallon Park in the 21st Ward, Board Bill #43, was vetoed on July 13th by Mayor Francis Slay. The bill was passed by the board of aldermen before being vetoed.
By signing this petition, I am voicing the opinion that I am deeply disappointed in Mayor Slay's vetoing of the O'Fallon Park speed bump bill. I believe that visitors of O'Fallon Park should have the same protection from traffic as visitors to Tower Grove Park and Forest Park.
I strongly support Board Bill #43 and Alderman Antonio French's proposal to improve O'Fallon Park with speed bumps.
