ATLANTIC, IOWA – Affordable housing in southwest Iowa recently got a boost from the Iowa Economic Development Authority. A grant administered by Southwest Iowa Planning Council (SWIPCO) will provide $300,000 to renovate and add four upper-story housing units in the City of Atlantic.
The project will include a complete interior overhaul of the second level of the building at 300 Chestnut Street in Atlantic. The renovation will add four new one and two-bedroom rental units in the heart of downtown. The Whitney Development Corporation of Atlantic owns the building. The group, which has completed other projects such as the Whitney Hotel restoration, was formed in 2018 for the purpose of funding community development projects in Atlantic and Cass County.
Other communities approved for SWIPCO grants include:
SWIPCO routinely provides grant writing and administration services to its member communities in Cass, Fremont, Harrison, Mills, Montgomery, Page, Pottawattamie, and Shelby Counties and has brought over $100 million in grants to the region in the last two years alone.
(Radio Iowa) – A bipartisan advisory panel has recommended that the House Ethics Committee dismiss its review of third district Congresswoman Cindy Axne’s stock trades. Last year a watchdog group called the Campaign Legal Center accused seven House members — including Axne, a Democrat from West Des Moines — of failing to report stock trades. The purchases and sales of stock were related to retirement accounts for Axne and her husband as well as 529 investment accounts for their children’s college expenses.
Axne says she and her husband left the investment decisions to account managers and didn’t execute or direct any stock trades themselves — and Axne didn’t realize she was to file public reports about any account activity. After the watchdog group’s accusation, Axne hired a lawyer to review the accounts and submit her financial disclosure reports. The bipartisan board that reviews ethics complaints has unanimously voted to recommend that all allegations against Axne be dismissed.
The Office of Congressional Ethics is an independent board that’s primarily made up of former members of congress. The board reviews allegations of misconduct and refers complaints to the House Ethics Committee. Axne says the group has asked her how the reporting system can be updated so that good actors don’t get tripped up and bad actors can’t skate by and she’s working with other members of congress to develop new guidelines for stock trade reporting.
(Radio Iowa) – Convicted sex offender from Inwood faces new sexual assault charge. Thirty-three-year old Justin Van Veldhuizen was arrested on his release from the state corrections system on Thursday, after serving time on an unrelated sexual assault conviction. While incarcerated, a victim came forward, and reported that Van Veldhuizen had assaulted her at a residence southwest of Rock Valley in 2007.
Van Veldhuizen was taken to the Sioux County jail, and was charged with two counts of sexual assault.
(Radio Iowa) – An Ottumwa man was arrested after authorities say he provided a gun to a teenager which resulted in the recipient’s death. According to court documents, on February 23rd, 19-year-old Mason McNelley provided a stolen firearm to a 17-year-old identified as James Barbieri. Investigators say Barbieri was handling the gun at which time the firearm discharged and a round struck him in the head.
Barbieri died from his injuries on February 26th. McNeely has been charged with trafficking in a stolen weapon used in a crime, dominion/control of a firearm by a felon, and transfer of a pistol or revolver to a person under 21.
(Radio Iowa) – A bar owner in rural Palo Alto County is facing multiple felony charges as a part of an investigation by state and local law enforcement agencies. 61-year-old Ronald Dean Smith owned and operated Molly Maguire’s Pub from a rural address seven miles east of Emmetsubrg, near the town of Cylinder. On Friday, Deputies from the Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office executed search warrants at the Pub as a part of an investigation that includes the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division and the Iowa Department of Revenue.
Deputies arrested Smith and have charged him four felonies, which include Ongoing Criminal Conduct, Fraudulent Sales Practices over $10,000, Sales Tax Evasion and Felon in Possession of a Firearm, to go along with 4 misdemeanor counts. Smith was booked into the Palo Alto County Jail with a cash only bond set at $50,000.
