City of Ballwin, MO - Government This is the official page for the City of Ballwin, Missouri. We welcome input from all.

The City of Ballwin was founded by John Ball, who officially named the city “Ballwin” on February 9, 1837. In the years that followed, Ballwin grew from the town Ball knew, with only a few homes and businesses, to a small village of 750 people when it was incorporated on December 29, 1950. Today, it’s home to a dynamic, thriving community of more than 30,000 and is a great place to live, work, pla

y, and learn. The City consists of four major departments: Administration, Public Works, Police, and Parks & Recreation.

Attention Parents & Caregivers: New Rules for E-Bikes & Motorized Vehicles

E-bikes and other motorized vehicles are becoming increasingly popular, and with that popularity has come an increase in crashes involving these devices.

At the August meeting, the Ballwin Board of Aldermen approved new regulations governing the use of bicycles, e-bikes and other motorized vehicles. There are lots of changes under the new law, including where certain vehicles can and cannot be operated.

Parents and caregivers: If your child operates an e-bike or other motorized vehicle, we strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with the new regulations. Knowing where these vehicles are permitted, and where they are prohibited, can help keep everyone safe and ensure your child is following the law.

A few important rules to know:

• Helmets are required for anyone under 17.
• All traffic laws must be followed, including posted speed limits.
• Where you can ride depends on the type of bicycle or motorized vehicle.

There are a lot of details to the new law, so before you ride, know the rules!

We have made several graphics to help you understand what type of vehicle is what, who can ride them and where.

You can check out our website at https://www.ballwin.mo.us/KnowBeforeYouRide/ for a link to printable versions of these graphics to keep on hand and for a link to the full text of the ordinance.
