(Corning, Iowa) – Residents of Corning, Tuesday, elected to change the way they are represented on the City Council. The 191-yes to 83-no votes, changes the current city council representation to five council members at-large without any ward residency requirements.

The Corning City Council is currently comprised of representation by two members elected At-Large, and one member from each of the three wards.

The new measure becomes effective at the beginning of the term following the next city election.
