It proposes a 60 day rush hour trial to West Benton Coralville and a shuttle to a landfill parking lot with shared funding or fare changes.

Hughes vetoes deer season weapons bill
Gov. Harold Hughes announced his first veto of the legislative session on a bill restricting deer season weapons. He argued the bill would bar high powered rifles in Iowa during deer season and fail to stop violators using small shot or high velocity small bore guns.
