Busy holiday weekend ahead for boaters on Iowa waterways

Ag/Outdoor, News

May 27th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

Many Iowa boat owners will be hitting a lake or river for the first time this year over the Memorial Day weekend. Susan Stocker, a boating law administrator for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, is hoping it’ll be a safe season on the state’s waterways. “Our boat accident rate has been going down,” Stocker says. “It all has to do with education and making sure everybody is safe out there.” Iowa’s late spring has probably kept many boats in storage later than normal, increasing the likelihood that Memorial Day weekend will be a busy one on the water.

Stocker is reminding boaters that a life jacket may be the key to survival in the event of an accident. “Make sure that when you are out there boating that you have a wearable life jacket for every person on board and make sure they fit the intended user,” Stocker says. The boat should also be equipped with fire extinguisher and a horn or whistle. Stocker says getting used to the water each spring is much like re-learning winter driving skills after the first snow fall.

She says with a little practice the good habits often return quickly. Stocker adds, if there’s alcohol on the boat, there should also be a designated driver. In 2014, more than 70-percent of the boating fatalities in Iowa involved alcohol, according to Stocker.

Strawberry season arrives in Iowa, crops look good

Ag/Outdoor, News

May 27th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

Whether they’re baked into pies, sprinkled over ice cream, blended into margaritas or eaten fresh right off the plant, strawberries are ripening in Iowa and in most regions, they’re ready for picking. Tami Stotts, with the Iowa Department of Agriculture, says the weather is finally cooperating for strawberry growers statewide.

“I’ve heard that the crop looks really good,” Stotts says. “They were in need of a little rain in some areas and a little heat and this week we’ve had both. I’ve had a few reports that they’re ripening just a little behind schedule but many of them are opening this weekend.” Fresh-picked strawberries are a tasty, fat-free treat and they kick off the growing season in Iowa. She says visiting a local farmers market or going to a you-pick farm is a great way to find fresh berries.

“I would suggest that before you head out to a strawberry patch you contact them because it can vary so much around the state,” Stotts says. “Before you pack up the family and head out, make sure the place you want to go is open.” Once picked, strawberries don’t continue to ripen like some fruits and vegetables, so select vibrant red berries. Also, strawberries have a short shelf life and should be eaten within a few days of being picked. You can find strawberry growers by visiting the Iowa Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association’s “Farm Search” website: www.ifvga.org/en/about_us/farm_search

Suicidal man holds police at bay in Carroll, threatens to shoot others

News

May 27th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

A tense situation involving an armed man who was making threats ending peacefully Thursday night in western Iowa. Carroll Police Chief Brad Burke says a parent called 911 over concerns their son would harm himself or others. “He was saying their son was suicidal, was armed with a handgun, and made threats to shoot anyone who approached him,” Burke said. The man was in a vehicle with his mother along Highway 30 in Carroll. Police blocked-off a section of the highway.

“We didn’t want any bystanders or passers-by to be mixed up in any type of crossfire if there were any shots that were fired,” Burke said. “We did have some businesses and buildings in the area that were also evacuated.” The man was eventually taken in custody around 9:3o p.m. and transported to a hospital for evaluation.

“There was no harm to anybody. It resolved peacefully. We’ll continue our investigation and charges are pending at this time,” Burke said. The man’s name has not been released.

Possible steering failure results in Red Oak accident

News

May 27th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

An issue with the steering on a 2014 Ford Fusion may have been to blame for an accident this (Friday) morning, in Red Oak. Police say 33-year old William Spann, of Red Oak, was driving the vehicle southbound on Eastern Avenue from Summit Street at around 7:30-a.m., when, according to Spann, he became unable to steer. The car crossed over Eastern Avenue, through a yard and struck a Mid American Energy Utility pole.

The car, owned by Esther Ross, of Stanton, sustained $4,500 damage. Damage to the utility pole was estimated at $1,600, while turf/yard owned by Joan Selser, sustained about $200 damage.

Spann was not injured during the accident, and no citations were issued.

Paperwork confusion for Corning non-profit

News

May 27th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

The state auditor has completed a special investigation of the non-profit association created to support a southwest Iowa fire department. The Corning Volunteer Fire Association was created in 2006 to support the activities of the volunteer fire fighters in the community. Eight years later, city officials found out the proper paperwork hadn’t been filed with the I-R-S, so the group didn’t quality as a non-profit.

That means the funds it raised should have been considered city funds. Auditors say the money should only have been used for fire department operations. Instead, nearly four-thousand dollars was improperly spent during that eight year period on fitness club memberships for volunteer fire fighters and almost 17-hundred was spent on holiday parties.

The association got all its paperwork in order a year ago and now qualifies as a non-profit group. That means it can spend its money on fitness and social activities for the fire fighters.
