Editor's Note: Brandon Bosley is responding to an opinion piece that the RFT ran on February 3 about the safer streets bill. Bosley sponsored the bill, which passed on February 10. The article, called "Brandon Bosley Is the Wrong Alderman to Make St. Louis Streets Safer," said that despite being the bill's sponsor, Bosley did not seem to want to use APRA funds for street improvement projects, instead suggesting at a committee meeting in January that the funds go toward a splash pad and funding cultural nonprofits The writer went on to say that KSDK had recently reported Bosley hit someone with his car and accused the person of attempted carjacking, which he denies and no charges have been filed.

GODFREY - Ground broke Thursday morning at the new Godfrey Firehouse site located at 3023 Godfrey Road. The $6.5 million project will feature drive-thru apparatus bays, medical and other supplies space, and training and administrative areas such as meeting spaces, offices, and living quarters. This new 15,000-square-foot facility will replace the two current Godfrey firehouses, centralizing them into one location and allowing for better and more efficient manpower allocation during emergency response. The owner’s representative is Northstar Management and the architect is FGM Architects. S. M. Wilson & Co. has been selected to serve as the Construction Manager. Construction on the site has begun since the demolition of the former Hi-Way House Motel that previously sat on the property. It's estimated that the new firehouse will be completed around the end of 2023.
