City Council tours condo progress at old hospitalBY SARA KONRAD BARANOWSKI | skonrad@iafal ls .com

Members of the Iowa Falls City Council got a look inside the old Ellsworth Munic-ipal Hospital last Wednesday afternoon as they toured progress on the renova-

tions that will turn the former medical facility into 20 high-end condominiums.

The tour was led by Rick Gustin, who owns Iowa Falls Heating/AC/Plumbing and is one of the four developers who bought the hospital to convert it and the surrounding campus into Ellsworth Estates neighborhood.

The tour started in unit 103 on the building’s north side. Formerly a portion of the Iowa Falls Clin-ic, it is unrecognizable. It’s been gutted and is in the process of being rebuilt to become a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, 1,500-square-foot condo. The unit – like the others in the building – will include a laundry room, ample closet space and a full kitch-en, dining area and living room. It will be priced at around $270,000.

Gustin has been working with his partners - Rick McDowell of McDowell & Sons Inc., John Zoske of Zoske Electrical Service Inc., and Lance Sharar of King Construction & Overhead Door Inc. - since

-cil in March 2015. In the fall of 2015 the men, who call their group Ellsworth Neighborhood Investment Group LLC, signed a $700,000 development agree-ment with the City. According to the agreement, the group must meet scheduled benchmarks to receive the money, which was contributed by Hansen Fam-ily Hospital and by the City (using tax increment

The question of what to do with the old Ellsworth Municipal Hospital was raised even before ground was broken to build the new Hansen Family Hospital along Highway 65 south of town. As part of planning for the new hospital, a group was formed to discuss the future of the old building, whose campus sat on a dozen acres along Rocksylvania Avenue.

In late 2014 and early 2015, almost a year after the new hospital opened, the City and hospital – which had not received any offers on the property – were preparing to tear down the old hospital to deal with interior deterioration that occurred when the hospital was vacated and utilities were disconnected. It was then that the Ellsworth Neighborhood Investment Group formed and offered its plans for the property. The development agreement was signed in late 2015 and ownership of the building and land transferred from the City to the group of developers. Demolition began in January 2016, and since then contractors have been working to transform the building.

Last week the group launched a website advertis-ing the condominiums – complete with preliminary

Supervisors approve budgetBY JUSTIN ITES | i tes@iafal ls .com

Tyear 2017-18 county budget following a brief public hearing last week.

Overall revenue is expected to total $20,275,564, while overall expenditures will be around $21,819,473.

The levy rate for rural property owners will be $10.43 per $1,000 taxable valuation, while the rate for urban property owners will be $7.18 per $1,000.

Of all the money the county will take in from revenue

will come from intergovernmental services.During the previous year’s county budget, 39 percent

of the county’s revenue was also generated from property tax collection.

Intergovernmental revenue is the money the County receives from federal, state and city governments. Those may come from road use taxes, reimbursements for prop-erty tax credits, elections, grants, contract law enforce-ment, prisoner care, etc.

While Iowa property taxes are collected to support multiple local entities (cities, counties, school districts and

schools receive 33 percent. The County takes 18 percent of the tax dollar, with the remaining 4 percent going to area community colleges, ag extension and smaller taxing entities.

Regarding overall expenditures, the biggest bulk (33

Bleachers, press box, timing system, scoreboard addedBY SARA KONRAD BARANOWSKI | skonrad@iafal ls .com

The project to repair and improve the track facili-ties at Iowa Falls-Alden High School grew by al-most $200,000 this week.

During a meeting Monday night, the Iowa Falls School Board voted to green-light three more compo-nents of the project: new bleachers and a press box; a fully automatic timing system; and a results/score board. All three elements have been discussed at previ-ous School Board meetings.

Last month, in a special meeting, the School Board voted to accept a bid for track improvements from Heartland Asphalt of Mason City. Heartland submitted the low bid - $460,462 – for work that includes reha-bilitation of the track and one long jump pit, replace-ment of the high jump pit and moving a second long jump pit. The bid from Heartland also includes grading work and a concrete pad for new bleachers, as well as a walkway from the parking lot.

Also at last month’s meeting the Board reviewed bids for replacement of the bleachers and press box, but it held off on approving a bid until the engineer and architect could look into the previous work of the contractors. On Monday, the Board approved the low bid from CBS Constructors of McCook, Neb. That company’s bid was $128,000. The high bid for that work – from Hansen Sports of Kansas City, Mo. – was $169,500.

The second track improvement approved Monday was a fully automatic timing system called Finish Lynx, which is priced at around $21,000. The system was recommended by Athletic Director Pat Norem and track coaches Dave Harms and Doug Dodd.

Rounding out the improvements is a results/score board for the track. Superintendent Dr. John Robbins presented the Board with three options, ranging in size and price. The Board voted to choose the largest and priciest of the three. It measures 7 feet, 10 inches tall by 16 feet, 2 inches wide and will cost $46,549. There will

The group had hoped to have the condos done this spring, but work was delayed by the discovery that they would be able to save more of the old hospital to create more condos. Other issues have also come up – replacement of the elevator, for example – that require extra work.

There will be 20 units in all, ranging in size from

to almost 2,000 square feet (two bedrooms, two bath-

around $140,000 to $300,000, and the condos’ owners will pay an association fee for building and grounds maintenance. Each unit comes with at least one in-

heated storage unit. The building also includes commu-nal spaces - both inside and outside - and an exercise facility. One unit has a sale pending, and Steinfeldt-Ra-be said there’s been interest in others.

Gustin said work has continued inside throughout the winter, but now that spring is arriving, passersby will see more activity outside. That includes a remake of the exterior (a mix of painted brick and a stone

Former Ackley City Clerk, Cynthia S. Roskens, is facing a charge of Fraudu-lent Practice 2nd Degree,

a Class D felony, following an investigation and her subse-quent arrest which took place on Monday, March 6. Roskens is accused of using the city’s

number for personal gain.According to the warrant application, a

statement from U.S. Cellular was received

to the City of Ackley, but had Roskens’ home address – 701 7th Ave., on it.

Current City Clerk Kelly DeBerg opened the envelope to discover billing for two active cell numbers, one known as being Roskens – the second unknown. Neither numbers coincide with any used by current city employees.

TEETIED (Tea Time) IN ACKLEYExhibit provides a step back in timeBECKY SCHIPPEREDITOR

L ast week was an excit-ing time for the Ackley

-itage Center, Development Commission and the Ack-ley Public Library. The four groups joined together to bring a traveling exhibit de-picting German Iowa and the Global Midwest to the com-munity.

Monday through Friday, those attending were treated to the story of German im-migration to Iowa and how those immigrants adjusted to their lives here. The exhib-it included some unique ties to Ackley through letters, an ethnic newspaper which had been printed in the commu-nity and more.

One of the experiences of the event included serving authentic German tea and strudel to those attending.

Making and serving the tea in the traditional East Frisian way is a complicat-

First the water is heat-ed to just off boil. A small amount of this hot water is put into a tea pot to warm it, before being poured out.

A teaspoon of tea (per cup) – classic East Frisian tea, blended with Assam varieties from India and

– is added to the teapot, and hot water - just enough to cover the tea leaves, is added. This is then steeped for three minutes. Follow-ing that amount of time, the pot is filled with the very hot water and tea is strained and served.

In each cup, kluntjes – a type of rock candy, crystal-lized from a saturated sugar solution are placed in the cup. As the hot tea is poured over them, the kluntjes crackle.
