Clayton Hill Action Asked By Grand Jury
A Clayton county grand jury urged Iowa highway officials to study a remedy for traffic accidents on a steep Clayton hill. Six grain trucks have lost control on the grade in the past year, causing property damage and injuries. Meanwhile 15 grain truckers face a December 28 hearing on a weekend and night travel ban, after tickets issued December 5 for driving to Pattison Bros. elevator. Pattison Bros. claims the ordinance is illegal and filed a Clayton district court injunctive action challenging it.
