Other facts

This election gives Missourians a clear choice between my record of working hard for middle class families at the table of compromise and common sense, and my opponents who want to privatize Social Security and Medicare, get rid of affordable student loans, and give more tax breaks to mega-millionaires and big corporations. I'll protect tax cuts for middle class families and small businesses while working hard to find compromise and bipartisan agreement to invest in roads and bridges, get serious about the deficit, and cut through red tape and regulations so Missouri businesses can add new jobs to our economy. While I am in the Senate, Missourians can be assured that they have a senator on their side in Washington.

More about the Ladue site than yours. Just seems like stories are staying up longer. Maybe its justRead More the summer doldrums.

I didn't notice sign-in issues for more than a day, but I don't sign in every time either. As forRead More "more stuff, less news," I agree with Fly - putting the blogs under the headlines in the same column can make it appear that blogs are news too. Unless it's mine, of course! ;) Guess the announcements take up more space, but don't ever seem to change. And if Patch is all about local, shouldn't there be fewer national ads - esp. the garbage ones like "5 Veggies that kill Belly Fat?" Ugh. Just my two cents...

Robin, no one local is buying ads to replace the national GoogleAds. No story about Monday's cityRead More council meeting. Guess it's hard for one editor to cover 2-3 cities.

Thomas, AMEN to this issue I raised earlier this year with the Chamber. Image is everything. And theRead More Olivette City Council saw this too and pulled the plug. Creve Coeur, not so much, LOL. Not sure what business you own but if I know and get the chance, I'll support you because your're a right-thinking kind of businessman who knows how to define LOCAL.

I think it's AMAZING the Creve Coeur/Olivette Chamber can't hold its golf tournament at the CREVERead More COEUR Golf Club, insider the Dielmann Rec. Complex, named after the Chamber's MEMBERSHIP DIRECTOR. I'm amazed. Also not surprised.

Whaddaya expect, if it's not broken, fix it! Just like Creve Coeur Government!

Thanks for asking! I'm working on a follow up story on that. Do you live in Orchard Lakes? What doRead More you think?
Chris June 6, 2013 at 09:39 am
I live in the subdivision and I can not wait for these offers to come in and to find out what isRead More going to happen. I for one plan on taking it if it is good. The subdivision is in rough shape, the sewers are falling apart and too many of the owners have moved away and just rent the homes to people who are not taking care of them or they are switching out tenants every year. If this one fails another will come and sooner or later one will get it. The hold outs are getting older and the younger families are going to jump at a chance to get out of their homes with doing absolutely no repairs.

It IS kinda pea-soup green. I like it - supposed to evoke "grassroots" news, I think!
