The city plan commission criticized the move fearing light and air loss to a nearby residence, but officials noted Becker owns the adjoining property and the request was routine.

City uses over two thousand tons of sand on Cedar Rapids streets
More than 2,000 tons of sand have been sprinkled at intersections and hills in Cedar Rapids this winter. Walter Markle, superintendent of streets, said much of the sand received a second coat in the last four days. Freezing temperatures kept sand from sticking as vehicles passed, but the department continued using sand to reduce ice hazards and sought fine cinders to improve surfaces. Warmer weather later reduced street danger.
