Bluestem Solid Waste Agency will leave the court to decide if it can abandon the condemned Hennessey site and recover 2.5 million dollars from William and Mary Hennessey. The board weighs whether to continue seeking a Linn County landfill or pursue other waste solutions as aviation rules block new landfills near The Eastern Iowa Airport.

Marion couple thanks Alburnett area for lost dog search
A Marion couple spent a week searching for their black Yorkshire terrier Zoey after she slipped from a leash in Alburnett during a wedding weekend. They spent about 520 dollars on fliers, letters, and rewards as residents aided the search before Zoey was found dead after being hit by a car near a gravel road. The family plans to adopt a new dog, Zelda, from Minneapolis in six weeks.
