Clift Nomination Opposed by City Officials in Cedar Rapids
Cedar Rapids police chief nominee Gareth Clift faces opposition from Teamsters Local 238 business agent Bob Schorg and Iowa police leader Darwin Ammeter who urge delaying confirmation to avoid possible extra costs. The council weighs attorney general opinions on civil service lists and whether a wider organizational change may require adding an assistant chief position under Safety Commissioner Ed Colton.

Mayor Canney opposes citizen committee on animal control
Cedar Rapids Mayor Don Canney said he will not appoint a citizens committee to study animal control laws. Safety Commissioner Ed Colton favors a comprehensive ordinance like Iowa City’s, covering barking dogs and vicious animals, and wants a committee to draft it with the city attorney. Canney notes the shelter is $4,000 in the red and prefers expert discussion, while Colton urges thorough study before action.
