The big St. Louis Home and Garden Show is this weekend.  H2O Plus , an inground pool builder based in Arnold has a booth at this years event.  Stop in and say hi to "Hollywood Joe" at booth 4718.

A suit was filed yesterday against the city of Arnold for their use of the red light cameras.  Included in the list of demands are actual and punitive damages from the city, Mayor Mark Powell, Police Chief Robert Shockey, the Arnold city council, a police officer and even the red light contractor, American Traffic Solutions, Inc.

UPDATE: ArnoldTalk was able to get a copy of the filing... 

BREAKING NEWS: Brinnon Morrison has officially withdrawn from the Arnold city council race. 

Mr. Morrison contacted me today with the following statement:

Due to my work responsibilities including possible extensive international travel obligations I am unofficially withdrawing as a candidate for Ward 3 city council.   I missed the deadline to legally have my name removed from the ballot however I will not be able to serve on city council.  I will become more involved in other areas to help serve the community of Arnold. In addition, I want to thank those who have given me tremendous support and advice over the last two months.
