D-4 Councilperson @jecoreyarthur joins the gang to talk about his experiences with the process of this "unfunded" merger review commission and to question why local Democrats don't seem concerned about the potential impact of HB 314 on our communities. youtu.be/mDImDt_JG7s
We have so many questions about the Louisville Metro Comprehensive Review Commission that aren't being answered, so we started this no budget production to look into this seemingly partisan commission while exploring the past and present of merger itself youtube.com/watch?v=X-__7PiC…

In 24 hours: 4 SEPARATE incidents of Louisville drivers hitting pedestrians. A 17-year-old kid was fatally hit. Another driver struck a 10 year old. All this is on the heels of city officials saying they’re taking actions to make roads safer. lpm.org/news/2024-03-14/thre…

Step 1A - Find four neighbors who would like traffic calming on your street or Step 1B - Get your neighborhood association to support the request Step 2 - Complete this form: louisvilleky.gov/public-work… Step 3 - Advocate for money in the city budget to fund these types of projects

it's now MUCH easier in Louisville to request speedhumps that slow reckless drivers in your neighborhood louisvilleky.gov/government/…

Very few organizations can claim they impacted residents in every corner of the county. Center for Neighborhoods’ flagship educational program - Neighborhood Institute - did just that. It’s a critical service that has strengthened civic engagement for 35 years.
New from me: Louisville Center for Neighborhoods lays off nearly entire staff courier-journal.com/story/ne…

Appreciate @WDRBNews covering the traffic safety improvements happening in Old Louisville, and why all-way stops reduce both the number and severity of crashes. Thanks especially to @adischanienews!

We like this idea from the @BroadwayPlan that actually changes this intersection at Baxter and Cherokee to shorten this crosswalk, create green space, and offset the intersection. louisvilleky.gov/vision-zero…
Need a crossing at Cave Hill too where it's the same situation. x.com/metromapper/status/598…

Thanks to @MyOldKYPod for being one of the few orgs besides @WFPLNews and @_Citystate to cover the merger Comprehensive Review Commission's data 'analysis'. Great recommendation and analysis deep dive by @rkahne. Have a listen around the 27 minute mark: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Nobody I’ve heard speak about HB314 has understood it as well as @BillHollander did in this June 2022 podcast that first got me interested. That includes Commission members, who’s report is due tomorrow Sep 15. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

I’m off this week but just saw this and I continue to be puzzled by what the Shreve campaign considers to be the profile of a likely Shreve voter. He’s announcing he wants to end what’s, quite possibly, the single most universally beloved city initiative this year.

New quick-build curb extensions on North Bend Rd shorten the crossing distance for pedestrians, and calm traffic by visually and physically narrowing the street.
