Pate defends his decision not to disclose his role in a new corporation

News

April 18th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate is defending his decision not to disclose his role in a new corporation that recently spent around $2 million to open a storage rental business and purchase a strip mall. Pate said in a statement Tuesday evening that his disclosure form is accurate because he reported receiving rental income from unspecified commercial and residential properties. He says he’s spoken with the Iowa Ethics and Campaign Disclosure Board about the matter.

The Associated Press reported earlier Tuesday that Pate formed the PRG Group LLC days before the 2016 presidential election. Pate didn’t list the corporation on an annual ethics filing he submitted last week that asked him to name outside businesses in which he was involved. In a February filing, he called himself the “managing partner” of the corporation.

Atlantic Head Coach Ed DenBeste: “Good to be back on the course after the weather this weekend.  I know our guys were ready to get back to some meets and competition.  Started off with the sun out and a little wind.  As the round continued, it got colder and windier. Today wasn’t our day.  We have a lot of work to do yet.  Ben and Matt has some struggles.  Hole 7 got Ben today.  Matt just had several bogies that he needed to get pars. Cyle also struggled at times.  Just couldn’t get the putter going.  Austin continues to shoot his normal game.  Hopefully we can get him a little lower.  Mason had struggles today.  Putter wasn’t working and didn’t hit driver at all.  Braden has some work to do yet as well.  Good to see Tate and Drey get below 50.  Hopefully that continues into the rest of this week. Harley is continuing to get better.  Next match is Thursday.  Hopefully we get back to the scores that we can shoot.”

April 18th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

ROCK VALLEY, Iowa (AP) — Authorities say a man was fatally injured when he was run over by a piece of equipment at a farm in northwest Iowa. The accident occurred Monday afternoon at the farm 4 miles west of Rock Valley. The Sioux County Sheriff’s Office says the man was run over while walking behind a payloader as it was backing up. He was taken to a local hospital and then flown to a Sioux Falls, South Dakota, hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The Sheriff’s Office identified him as 52-year-old Bradley Peetsch, who lived in Baxter, Minnesota. The payloader driver was identified as 17-year-old Joey Van Ginkel, of Rock Valley. A payloader is a heavy vehicle with a large blade or broad scoop mounted on its front.
