(Radio Iowa) – The head of the national Republican Party will be the keynote speaker for an Iowa G-O-P fundraiser next month.

Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel’s appearance at the August 10th fundraiser in Des Moines will be a celebration of Iowa’s First in the Nation status, according to Iowa G-O-P chairman Jeff Kaufmann.
The Iowa G-O-P’s fundraiser will be held four days after the DEMOCRATIC National Committee’s Rules and Bylaws panel decides whether the Iowa Democratic Party’s Caucuses will remain first in their party’s next presidential nominating process.

(Atlantic, Iowa) – Cass/Guthrie County Environmental Health Executive Director Jotham Arber provided the Cass County Supervisors with a Quarterly report this (Tuesday) morning. In it, Arber said the Environmental Health Department was busy conducting many perc tests over the past few months, along with providing well tests and septic system inspections. The perc test is meant to simulate the actual conditions in a working septic system.
Arber said he had some good news with regard to grants to help property owners pay with some of those services.
He mentioned also, that over the next couple of months there will be information coming out through the media and advertisements, reminding people there is money available through the grants, to property owners.
Septic system grants, he says would help he and his staff cover their entire service area, not just the unincorporated area. On a separate note, Arber says they are working on writing a Tanning Ordinance that would cover his four-county service area.
Currently, they are working under the old rules for inspections of tanning shops. In other news, the Cass County Board of Supervisors approved the appointment of Nadine King to the Lewis Library Board. They tabled action on appointments for the Massena and Washington Township Trustees, due to no applicants for those positions. And, the Board tabled action of a Resolution to vacate an Excess Row, until a later meeting when more information could be gathered.
