The City of Atlantic’s Planning and Zoning Commission will meet this evening at City Hall, to review the Namanny Commercial Development Final Plat. On Oct. 17th, the Atlantic City Council approved plans for the Preliminary Plat. At that time, City Administrator Doug Harris said the owners of the property plan to sub-divide the 7.86-acre parcel, which is zoned as Light Industrial, into four lots. Harris said there are several people interested in developing the parcels when they are sold off. The actual grading and drainage of those lots won’t happen until a site plan is created for each individual lot.
In other business, the P-and-Z will receive a status report on the updating of the City’s Zoning Ordinance, which includes landscape requirements and design standards. Their meeting begins at 5:30-p.m.
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) – Officials have released the name of a 26-year-old man killed in a Sioux City job accident. He was identified as Cesar Balderama, of Sioux City. He died Saturday afternoon while working at the new Sabre Industries site in Southbridge Business Park.
The Sioux City Journal reports that Balderama worked for a contractor. Details about the accident haven’t been released. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating Balderama’s death.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has threatened to take over protection of Iowa’s waterways from the state. The Des Moines Register reports that a federal investigation shows the state has been lax in requiring that livestock operations follow rules to keep manure out of Iowa’s creeks and rivers, ponds and lakes.
The EPA report says the state hasn’t properly inspected livestock facilities and failed in its duties about half the time when responding to livestock pollution. The Iowa Natural Resources Department says the EPA criticism is misplaced. DNR spokesman Kevin Baskins says his agency has been encouraging compliance, rather than imposing fines and other penalties as punishment for failure to follow environmental rules. And Baskins says there’s evidence the strategy is working.
