Road upgrade eyed for Tama Indian settlement
Tama Chamber of Commerce delegates led by George Inman plan to meet next Wednesday with the Tama board of supervisors to push for a hard surfaced road through the Sac and Fox Indian settlement. Inman cites heavy state paving elsewhere and says improved access could boost tourism and local commerce, noting signs directing visitors to the trail are of little use without better roads. He urges county or federal action to pave the 4% mile stretch and points to prior federal involvement in building and rebuilding the road.
