Biking and Walking Benefits Program Now in WildwoodThe City of Wildwood has launched an exciting new program that aims to create new and additional traffic for local businesses, while continuing to promote an active, healthy lifestyle for the community. Biking and Walking Benefits is a year-round national program in more than 100 communities across the United States that promotes active mobility through discounts/rewards to cyclists and walkers that visit local businesses. The program is very simple - individuals purchase a $5.00 helmet sticker from participating businesses and after biking or walking to a participating business, present the sticker to receive their discount/reward. If you already have a sticker from another community, just present it at a participating Wildwood business, and be sure to use your sticker to receive discounts at other area businesses. Lauren Edens, Ward 2 Council Member and the Chair of the Economic Development Committee of the Wildwood City Council, said, “this program fits perfectly with our culture and outdoor infrastructure, including our extensive trail and sidewalk network. We hope that the initial list of 10 businesses grows with more communications and outreach.” Interested businesses can participate by contacting Hugh Share, Volunteer Program Coordinator, at sharecycle08@gmail.com, or 314.486.5685. For a list of current participating businesses and their discount/reward, click this link: https://bicyclebenefits.org/cities/398.

Welcome to Wildwood, MissouriWildwood, Missouri is a unique, progressive community that is set in a magnificent natural environment, which features dense woodlands, rolling hills, beautiful valleys, lush meadows ,and crystal clear streams.
Located in West St. Louis County, just a 30 minute drive from downtown St. Louis, Wildwood is a historic community dedicated to its Master Plan, which provides for the preservation of its rural areas, while offering opportunities for residential and commercial growth. State, County and City Parks cover over 11 of the 68 square miles that forms Wildwood's municipal boundaries. The City is served by the AAA-rated Rockwood School District, St. Louis Community College at Wildwood, and has numerous recreational options as well, including an extensive trail and bikeway system, a popular snow ski/tubing and zipline resort, and a prominent equestrian community.
Wildwood incorporated on September 1, 1995; however, the community’s remarkable history does not begin there, The long and rich history of the local settlements has defined this area for many generations. The early settlements of Centaur, Fox Creek, Glencoe, Grover, Hollow, Kelpe, Melrose, Monarch, Orrville, Pond and Westland Acres continue to be discoverable today. Markers provide a brief historicity of these areas for adventurers intrigued by the past. Beyond these unique settlements, the ever-popular Historic Route 66 thoroughfare (now called Manchester Road) bisects Wildwood’s north from south, directly through the heart of the town center. This portion of Route 66 is the original location of the byway, dating back to the early 1930s. Come on out and take a nostalgic ride down old Route 66, and stay awhile and enjoy all the exciting things to do in Wildwood.

Internet Access Committee (IAC) - Project UpdatesFIBER-TO-THE-PREMISE: Information on the final rules that are expected from the U.S. Department of Treasury regarding the parameters of the America Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding program have still not been made available to States and local communities. Again, as mentioned two (2) weeks ago, the City leadership continues to work with a provider on an agreement for service to the underserved and unserved areas of Wildwood, despite not having these rules in hand. With the agreement’s on-going refinement, the City’s leadership will eventually be able to address the inclusion of these federal requirements as part of it, when made available. OTHER INSTALLATIONS: Bays ET’s fiber-to-the-premise projects are continuing to move forward on many fronts, including the planned installation of a major conduit of fiber optic within the right-of-way of State Route 100, from Franklin County Line to Old Wild Horse Creek Road/Wild Horse Creek Road area. Due to this effort, Bays ET will be able to serve a very large number of properties along this route where fiber optic is to be installed. Key to this effort is the use of the City’s property at this intersection of Old Wild Horse Creek Road/Wild Horse Creek Road for a backhaul location. This location is planned to have an equipment shelter located there and will provide the needed centralized location for much of western Wildwood. The use of this property has created concerns with the two (2) neighbors and the Department of Planning is trying to address them, with assistance of the Department of Public Works and the St. Louis County Police Department – Wildwood Precinct. This assistance is intended to eliminate certain concerns about aesthetics, use levels, and privacy. Bays ET will provide WIFI service to the Celebrate Wildwood Event this weekend. This service has been provided by Bays ET for many years and is essential to a successful event, given the need for such to accommodate payments of all types from this year’s large group of vendors. This company has always played a major role in the City of Wildwood’s annual celebration.
OTHER OPTIONS: The Department continues to define other options for internet service, which are identified below: - Bays ET – Fixed wireless network service (original)
- Bays ET – Fiber-to-the-Home (only to certain areas – Hawks Rest, Homestead Estates at Wildwood, and Shiloh Subdivisions)
- Wisper Internet – Fixed wireless network service (original)
- Wisper Internet – Fixed wireless network service (new)
- AT&T Wireless – Mobile communication provider – Hotspot Use
- AT&T – Non-mobile option, where property owner or subdivision compensates provider for extension of fiber optic or T1 Business Line to location(s). Dr Rambaud can provide more background and authored an e-mail in this regard.
- Verizon – Mobile communication provider – Hotspot Use
- T-Mobile/Sprint – Mobile communication provider – Hotspot Use
- Other Mobile Providers – Mobile communication providers, i.e., Mint Mobile, Metro, Cricket, etc. – Hotspot Use
- Satellite – Different providers
- Spectrum (Charter Communications)
- Wildwood Workspaces – 16759 Main Street, Suite 205 (co-working spaces for internet needs)
- Starlink - is now delivering initial beta service domestically, and will continue expansion to near global coverage of the populated world in 2021. For more information, please click on this link - Starlink Information.
If you have any questions or comments about the City's initiatives on high-speed internet to certain areas of this community, please contact the Department of Planning at (636) 458-0440. Please check back regularly for updates.
