Cedar Rapids teen Logan Blake remembered with safety fixes
Logan Blake, a 17 year old who died after being swept into a Cedar Rapids storm sewer in June, prompted city officials to install a guard fence and warning sign at the 27th Street NE inlet. The city will pay $2,000 in attorney fees, and Logan’s family sought safety improvements over financial damages. The project costs are estimated at 50 thousand to 75 thousand dollars, with potential safety updates planned at other inlets near local schools.
