The Omaha World Herald reports the accident happened at around 10-a.m. near the 36.5-mile marker of I-80 eastbound.

According to dispatch reports, a motorcycle driven by a 60-year old man went out of control and crashed into the median. Traffic was backed-up in the eastbound lanes for about 2-miles, until around 11-a.m., because the helicopter landed at the scene on the interstate.

The crash victims’ injuries were not believed to be life threatening. Additional information was not available early this (Sunday) afternoon.

Members of the CAM Board of Education will gather in the High School Media Center in Anita Monday evening, to resume discussions, and possibly act on approving, an agreement with the Nodaway Valley School District, for the sharing of a Superintendent. The meeting begins at 6:30.

Superintendent Steve Pelzer and School Board President Gary Dinkla and Board Member Chuck Kinzie met in April with Nodaway Valley School Board members to discuss a possible sharing arrangement.At that time, the CAM Board voted not to continue discussions with the Coon Rapids-Bayard School Board, with regard to a similar arrangement.

It was also announced in April, that Superintendent Pelzer had held conversations with Adair-Casey Superintendent Steve Smith about sharing possibilities.  The two boards will hold a joint meeting in June or July to discuss sharing opportunities. The  next regular meeting of the Adair-Casey School Board is May 21st, but Superintendent Sharing is not on their agenda.  Members of the Nodaway Valley School Board voted during their meeting on May 8th, to enter into an agreement to share a Superintendent with the CAM School District. Their next step was to form a committee to draft and agreement for presentation to the CAM School Board.

In other business, the CAM School Board, Monday, will discuss and/or act on: Any resignations; An agreement with Casey Computer Consulting; Open Enrollment Applications; An agreement with Iowa Western Community College; a Pre-School recommendations, and Air Conditioner bids for the Massena School.

The Board will then enter into an exempt/closed session for negotiations, before resuming discussion and/or action on Contracts and a Shared Superintendent’s position.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad has about 40 bills awaiting a decision, a hefty stack of policy and spending measures lawmakers sent him in a flurry as the Legislature adjourned earlier this month.

He has about two more weeks to decide whether to sign bills, which include measures regulating the use of unmanned aerial drones, allowing some people with epilepsy to take a marijuana oil derivative, and ending dog racing at Council Bluffs but letting it continue in Dubuque. About 10 of the bills Branstad must consider are spending measures that make up large portions of the state’s $6.97 billion budget.

The governor has 30 days from adjournment to consider bills sent to him at the end of the session. Branstad has signed just over 100 bills into law.
