City of Keota Receives Grant for New Roof

Grants Allow for Updates at Wilson Library

The city has been doing some updates to the Wilson Memorial Library and Small Park, some by choice and others were mandatory. The most recent update is the security system that has been installed to watch over the park and the outside of the library. This system will help decrease the amount of vandalism at the park and make the area safer as a whole. The money that is saved repairing the park from unnecessary damage, will allow improvements to other areas of the parks that have aged. This improved was funded by WCRF (Washington County Riverboat Foundation). This organization has done their best to always help the city improve as whole, even though some of the items are not always physically seen at first.

The next improvement to the library, as many of you have noticed was the sidewalk. The sidewalk was funded by KCCEF and with the help from the local option sales tax income the city receives. This sidewalk makes the travels to the library from the park and school safer, along with ADA compliant. Some of the windows in the basement have also been replaced due to BB gun holes in them. With the new security cameras, this will help prevent this from happening. These projects were made possible because of the support from the Washington County Riverboat Foundation and the recent support of the Keokuk County Community Endowment Foundation. Article submitted

All areas of city are being af-fected by the generosity of the Washington County Riverboat Foundation. The latest areas that have seen the effect are City Hall, Fire Station, Small Park and Wilson Memorial Li-brary. The WCRF granted the city revenue to install a Duro-last roof on city hall and the fi re station. The previous roof was leak-ing and causing damage to fi les and equipment. Now with the help from the WCRF all the items stored in these two areas will be safe from precipitation and it also enhances the look and energy effi ciency of city hall. Article submitted

2014 IFAA Winner’s Circle Scholarship Recipients

Keota Education Foundation Gives Money to Keota Schools

The Keota E d u c a t i o n Foundation r e c e n t l y p r o v i d e d the Keota Community

School District with a check for $38,000 to be applied toward improving the science curricu-lum. This money was donat-ed to the foundation by the community for the purpose of replentishing the general fund. Thus far we have collected and distributed the following: 2012--$144,000 2013--$38,000 2014--$38,000 The money was provided in various amounts by mem-bers of the community that are hopeful that with support we can keep our school and con-

tinue to provide a quality edu-cation. Two donors that have been particularly generous are RayMan Manufacturing with a gift of $20,000 per year for 3 years and Farmer’s Bank that has donated $10,000 per year for 3 years. We are extremely grateful for these two business-es but we realize that that level of commitment is not possible for everyone. The remainder of the money has come in smaller amounts but with no less importance. If we all give a little, it adds up and enables us all to make a difference. We need to continue to col-lect even more in order to keep viable as the funds are again declining and will continue to pose a threat to the district’s viability.

Donations Needed for Local Food Pantry The food pantry located at the United Church of Faith is in need of donations. This pantry was opened in September of 2013 and serves the needs Keota and Harper residents. It is open twice a month and distributes nonperishable items. Donations of canned goods, non-perishable food and personal hy-giene items are needed. Monetary contributions are gratefully appre-ciated and these can all be dropped off at the church.

Author, television host and farm equipment authority, Greg Peterson-widely known as “Machinery Pete”-will be the key-note speaker at the Vision Ag LLC/ Winfield Answer Plot Knowledge event on Sept. 4 in Richland, Iowa. Peterson will present data and commentary on trends in used farm equipment values. He will also report on what he sees as a highly dynamic and complex mar-ket due to lower row-crop com-modity prices, uncertain status on the Section 179 tax limit, and large inventories of large late-model equipment on dealers’ use lots. “We’re closely watching this shifting market,” said Peterson, Founder and Principal. “There are some widening price disparities all across the country, and there will be both winners and losers in the

used equipment space.” Peterson will also be available to autograph copies of the new 2014 Machinery Pete Classic Tractor Price Guide, which will be avail-able for sale at the event. With over 400 pages and 52 equipment brands from the early 1900’s to 1978, this guide is the most com-prehensive compilation of auction data on classic equipment. “I love every opportunity I can find to interact with farm-ers,” added Peterson. “Whether on social media or face-to-face, it’s great talking about trends in values and reminiscing on the classics. My audiences are passionate about their iron!” Event details: Thursday, September 4, 2014 at 5:00 p.m. at The Richland Vision Ag Shop, 709 Highway 78 East, Richland, Iowa 52585.

August 18, 2014 The Keota City Council met on August 18, 2014, in the city hall. The meeting was called to order at 7:01 P.M. by Mayor Pro Tem Keith Conrad. Council Members answering roll call were Westendorf, Davis, Hill and Conrad. Council-man Greiner arrived shortly after roll call was taken and Mayor Cansler was unable to attend.

The drains in the parking lot and in front of the building are not working correctly. Slaubaugh will have them cleaned out to allow better fl ow. There is not enough parking around the building. Slaubaugh

will have rock hauled to other side of the park-ing lot to meet up with the building and rock part of the alley by the basketball court for parking. There are holes in some of the basement win-dows. The windows have been ordered and will be replaced once they are in. Matt Wildman presented the report from the fl ow meter’s that were installed in four of our storm drains and how it coincided with the modeling of our sewer system. He recommend-ed that the old brick man holes be relined to help with infi ltration and the covers with holes in them be replaced. Slaubaugh also asked about videoing the other two-thirds of the town to see what the lines look like. All of these op-tions could help with the infi ltration problem; the council will discuss this more at the next meet-ing. Kevin Slaubaugh reported the following for the public works department. The new water department truck is in and will be delivered later this week. The new sidewalk is installed and will be fi lled in around it once it has set. The well is getting closer to being done.

The pressure reducing value for the emergency WRWA hook-up is in and will only be used if there is no other option for wa-ter supply. Dickinson presented the test results from the tests downstream from the waste wa-ter plant compared to the new DNR standards and the results of the water discharged directly from out system into the stream.

By Adam Meier,Regional Sports Editor Chris Carter’s Sigourney High School volleyball squad got its final warm up against actual competition on Friday against WACO.After playing a number of schools in a jamboree on Thursday, the Savages, who finished 11-10 last season, hosted WACO in a Gatorade scrimmage. Projected starters and reserves, alike, where given chances to prove their worth to the Sigourney coaches, with the official season just around

the corner. Last week’s action helped give the Savages a feel of play-ing in front of their fans against solid competition. The matches also helped give Coach Carter a glimpse of what combinations may, or may not, work best for her team come the regular sea-son. Sigourney’s first match is on Thursday, Sept. 4, at home against Lynnville-Sully.

For the first time this season, the S i g o u r n e y -Keota football players got a chance to take out their aggression against someone other than their own team-mates. The WACO Warriors, who finished 5-5 last season, vis-ited the Cobras on Friday for a friendly Gatorade Scrimmage between the two squads. Sigourney-Keota opened up the scrimmage on offense and broke off the first big play of the night, when Nate Sieren took handoff from Blaine Gretter 80 yards for a touchdown on the very first play. First-string, second-string and third-string players from both teams all got ample opportunities to make plays and gain experience in front of the big crowd on Friday, making the scrimmage a valuable learning experience for both sides. No score or time was kept. The Cobras open up their season this Friday, Aug. 29, at 2013 Class A runner-up, BGM.
