The Atlantic Police Department reports a Pottawattamie County woman was arrested Tuesday on a Theft charge. 18-year old Allyson Miller, of Avoca, was arrested for 5th degree Theft (Shoplifting). Miller was booked into the Cass County Jail and held pending an appearance before the magistrate.
An electrical fire Tuesday evening at a business in Harlan caused minimal damage and no one was injured. According to Harlan Fire Chief Roger Bissen, the department responded to a call around 4:57pm to 1111 Cyclone Ave for a structure fire. Bissen said the owner of the building was about to leave for the day and smelled something burning. Upon further investigation, smoke was coming from the south wall as the fire was inside the wall.
Firefighters were able to put out the fire with minimal damage done to the structure. The chief said some insulation and wiring would need to be replaced. Bissen said the owner was lucky he was still at work and was able to report it quickly. If the fire occurred two hours later, the building may have been in jeopardy. The Harlan Fire Department was on scene for about 30 minutes.

The Pottawattamie County Board of Supervisors have set Nov. 5th as the date for a public hearing on the issuance of $1.7-million in General Obligation bonds, which if approved, would be used mostly for renovations at the Pott. County Courthouse. The Omaha World-Herald reports the action came Tuesday during the Board’s meeting in Council Bluffs.
The bonds would help to pay for more than $1.2-million in renovations, that include the installation of fire sprinklers on three levels of the courthouse, new lights, and an air conditioning system. The funds will also be used to make the restrooms ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant. One-half million dollars would be set aside for upgrades to election counting machines, pending Board approval.
Other projects include the replacement of control mechanisms in four elevators, the installation of electronic card readers for access to the rooms throughout the courthouse and a building that houses election materials, and, the resurfacing of four parking lots and an alley between 5th and 6th Avenues.
