A reminder from Cass County Emergency Management Coordinator Mike Kennon: The eastbound entrance ramp and westbound exit ramps will closed tomorrow (Monday) morning at 7:00 AM and are scheduled to reopen on April 28th at 3:00PM. The EB entrance ramp detour is to take I-80 WB to US 71 and turn around. The WB exit ramp detour is also to go west to US 71 and take it back to exit 54.
At this time it appears it will stay open over I-80 but will be single line alternating with flaggers during the day. The exit and entrance ramps will be closed 24/7 starting Wednesday at 7AM until April 28th at 3PM. I attached a picture of the detour for the ramp closures.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The death of a 16-year-old Iowa girl has led to finger-pointing at the Legislature and is an indication of how much has changed in the 17 years since the death of another child prompted a bipartisan inquiry.
Five months after the death of Natalie Finn, Republican lawmakers have been split over whether to investigate her treatment and Democrats have accused GOP leaders of being reluctant to take up the matter because of possible questions about state staffing.
The response was different after the January 2000 death of Shelby Duis, a 2-year-old from Spirit Lake. Her killing prompted then-Gov. Tom Vilsack to speak at a public hearing in Storm Lake, and the matter dominated that year’s legislative session.
Sen. David Johnson said both parties worked together in 2000 to improve the child welfare system.

Members of the Atlantic Community School District’s Board of Education will meet 9-a.m. Monday in the ICN Room at the High School, to act on approving the purchase of certain real estate, and the termination of a lease for another property.
During their meeting on January 24th, the Board voted to enter into negotiations to purchase the Cass, Incorporated building at 1406 S.W. 7th Street (on the west side of Atlantic). Board Secretary/Business Manager Mary Beth Fast has said the building could serve many purposes, including bringing back the K-through 6 Behavioral Program which was cancelled a couple of years ago due to a lack of students. The building space would allow the program to be expanded to include 10 slots for students, one full-time Behavioral Education teacher and one para-educator.
She said they could also use the 27,000 square foot building for an Alternative High School, Career Tech classes, office space, and/or rent or lease the space to other entities.
The Board is expected Monday morning to terminate a 5-year building lease with the Car Guys, LLC, for a facility at 1209 Sunnyside Lane, effective June 30, 2017. The facility currently serves as the site for the Behavioral Program and Alternative High School. Ending the lease agreement would save the District more than $51,253 per year.
