Kansas City to install 100 Speed
Humps in Residential Neighborhoods

 

Speed humps are parabolic vertical traffic calming devices intended to slow traffic speeds on low volume, low speed roads. Speed humps are 3–4 inches high and 12–14 feet wide, with a ramp length of 3–6 feet, depending on target speed.

Speed humps reduce speeds to 15–20 mph and are often referred to as “bumps” on signage and by the general public.

Park Regulations

Soliciting on Public Streets 

This article is meant as a primer for those who wish to know the laws that affect us in Raytown. It is important to keep in mind the laws outlined below are there to protect the public. 

So, without any further ado, here is a list of laws that are violations under Raytown City Ordinances, and, in some cases, also under Missouri State Law.

RAYTOWN MUNICIPAL PARKS:  

• Smoking marijuana is forbidden in Raytown Public Parks. If you see this violation, call the Raytown Police Department. If you do not know the seven digit number to call, just dial 911. More often than not, the phone will be answered by the same dispatcher. Incidentally, It is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to smoke recreational marijuana in Missouri.
• Amplified Music is not allowed in Raytown Parks. This is not just "loud music", but ANY amplified music. Again, call the Raytown Department for enforcement.
• Motorized vehicles of ANY type are not allowed on Raytown Park Trails. Bicycles are allowed on walking trails.
• Motorized vehicles of ANY type are not allowed on grassy areas within the park.

SOLICITING ON PUBLIC STREETS and STREET CORNERS IS ILLEGAL

• Soliciting on Public Streets is not allowed in Raytown. If you see this activity please call the Raytown Police Department immediately. This is a Public Safety issue. Public streets are meant for use by motorized vehicles. They are not designed for people to wander around in traffic. 
• If this violation occurs on 350 Highway, it is also in violation of State Law.

The simple solution to all of these situations is to call the Raytown Police Department for enforcement of the law. Your identity will be kept confidential and not made public by the Raytown Police Department.
