Teachers keep 22 positions after Iowa City budget vote
The Iowa City school board voted to reduce its undesignated reserve from 5 to 3 percent, freeing about 2.5 million dollars to save 22 regular education teacher jobs. The move avoids layoffs while facing a projected up to 9.6 million dollar two year shortfall and possible one time funding to cover remaining deficits.

Coralville advances brewery plans in commercial zones
Coralville city council approved the first reading of an amendment permitting full-scale breweries in C-2 districts with aims to allow production and sales above 650 gallons per day. The measure follows inquiries about brewing operations and cites the Iowa River Landing project as a C-2 example. The council also advanced taxi regulations to align with Iowa City, boosting minimum taxis to four, mandating 24 hour dispatch, and requiring service citywide, citing late night refusals. A public hearing was set for May 10 on River Landing West Parking Facility.
