County board approves two Linn budgets tight on growth
Linn County supervisors approved two budgets on Tuesday as they prepare a fiscal 2001 plan. One budget, taxed and capped at 3 percent growth, rose 3 percent mainly from salary and benefit hikes. The second budget, largely funded from non tax sources, calls for expenditures of 2.40 million with revenues of 1.65 million and a tax contribution about 100 thousand higher than last year. Officials cited slower valuation growth due to state rollback, utility valuation method changes, and TIF district effects.

CAP CrimeCheck model cited as useful for Cedar Rapids
CAP reports claim over 70 percent accuracy and offer neighborhood risk by a 10 point scale. Officials note data may outperform FBI and DOJ measures, though race is not included in the model. City police acknowledge useful insights but seek more index details while viewing downtown as a moderate risk area.
