Justices side with former ISU professor in wage suit
The Iowa Supreme Court reversed a Polk County ruling on wage discrimination, allowing ISU professor emeritus Silvia Cianzio to seek damages beyond a two year limit. The court said the remedies statute is unambiguous and permits recovery for the period of discrimination, not limited to prior filing windows. The decision remanded for further proceedings consistent with its interpretation.

Marion deploys molasses salt mix to melt ice this winter
Marion unveils a new ice melting blend called Magic-0 from Skyline Salt Solutions using molasses and calcium chloride to make salt stick to pavement at colder temps. Public Services director Mike Barkalow says the environmentally friendlier mix should reduce overall salt use and protect rivers by limiting runoff. The pre treated brine activates without water contact and aims to minimize scattering.
