October 28, 2009: ADVANCE! City Council to Allow Bicycles on Ayd Mill Road!

Bikes take over last holdout city road in St. Paul, no stopping 2 wheeled rollers, rumors of unicycles and tricycles terrorize timorous motorized Hummer operators! Russ Stark sponsored a resolution to allow bikes on lightly used Ayd Mill Road. Next thing you know St. Paul may just get the millions in Fed money they have been throwing away by missing deadlines to put a bike route on Ayd Mill. The old "Stripe Walk and Ride" plan may be rolling again, though to spend the millions they will have to use real gold for the stripes. Hooray for Russ!!

Nov. 2006: After a royal stomping delivered in a 70% election sweep Randy "King" Kelly was tossed out, and is now "Randy who?". Mayor Chris Coleman has ushered in a new era of open government and saner policy. HOORAY!

July 1, 2005: King Kelly and the Royal Decrees Yodel for Metro Council Money to Build Ayd Mill Freeway.

- Tell the city council by July 6 to not pass the latest siren song of doom as Kelly begs Council to pass a money request to the Metro Council to make Ayd Mill Road into Highway 280. St Paul City Council Contacts NO MONEY FOR FREEWAY.
