He said he promised if she stayed on as Library Board President, he would bring her chocolates and flowers.

In her report to the Council, Headlee said the Library Board continues its efforts to find a new Library Director to succeed Natalie Struecker, who resigned a couple of months ago. Their staff, she said, continue with school outreach programs, story-time, and other educational programs. She added that representatives Iowa Works come to the library once a month, to help out of work persons in their job search, resume preparation and Iowa Workforce website for employment opportunities. They began doing so on Oct. 2nd, but haven’t had much turnout for the hours they are available. Therefore, Headlee said they are requesting that persons who want to use their service, please call ahead and reserve your time slot. For more information, you can call the Library.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Iowa Congressman David Young today (Wednesday), asked U.S. Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta to assist the employees who will be affected by the closing of a Creston candy production factory.

Ferrara Candy Company, the largest employer in Creston, announced it would be closing the factory in December which will result in the loss of more than 250 jobs. Ferrara Candy Company has been part of the Creston community for more than 30 years.

“The plant’s closing is deeply troubling. I know how important those jobs are to the Creston community and I know that the community will come together to make sure those affected are taken care of. I reached out to Secretary Acosta because the Department of Labor should immediately begin implementation of transition assistance and aid programs to lessen the impact on those affected and the Creston community as a whole,” said Congressman Young. “My office stands ready to assist anyone affected by the closing of the plant.”

Congressman Young’s letter to Secretary Acosta asked that the Department of Labor work closely with local and state officials and impacted workers to ensure they have access to available services designed to help them find new, quality employment in the future.
