The Cass County Board of Supervisors are scheduled to meet Friday morning, in Atlantic. During their session, which begins at 8:30, the Board is expected to act on approving a Tax Suspension (per Iowa Code), for portions of Lots 20, 21 and 22, all in the Chestnut Place Addition of Atlantic, except Parcel A.

The Board will also act on a Resolution to place a Public Measure on the Nov. 4th General Election ballot. The measure calls for the appointment of township officers by the Board of Supervisors, rather than by election. Auditor Dale Sunderman points out 14 townships are now by appointment by the Board.

Iowans have a chance to share their views about the new state law that allows severe epileptics to possess cannabis oil as a treatment. It’s not legal to buy or sell cannabis oil in Iowa, but the 2014 Iowa legislature passed a law that decriminalized possession of the substance. Advocates say it can help patients with a severe form of epilepsy. The Iowa Department of Public Health has drawn up a set of rules for administering the law.

For example, people would go to an Iowa D-O-T licensing station with a doctor’s recommendation for a card that shows the holder can possess cannabis oil in Iowa. The public health department would process the applications. A 90-minute public hearing has been scheduled for August 26th and Iowans who want to speak out on the subject can go to a site in any of six Iowa cities to participate, via a video link.

In the KJAN listening area, a public hearing on the law will take place from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., Aug. 26th, at Iowa Western Community College, 2700 College Road, in Council Bluffs.  Iowans who want to speak out on the subject can go to the IWCC site to participate, via a video link over the Iowa Communications Network. You can also participate via conference call Dial-in at : 1-866-685-1580, Pass code: 5152814355.
