Bartel Retracts Criticism Of Johnson Solons Votes
Johnson County Supervisor Richard Bartel backed away from criticism of area legislators who backed HB 315, a move he framed as a retraction. The session escalated into a clash with former Johnson Sheriff Maynard Schneider over county road funding and Bartel’s election legality, as Johnson County Attorney Carl Goets reported the Iowa Supreme Court’s writ denial. The dispute touched on road funds, legal jeopardy of Bartel votes, and aid to state programs amid federal cuts, with Schneider labeling Bartel a “quack engineer” in tense exchanges.
