Special Landing Permits Highlight Cedar Rapids Helicopter Row
Governor Hughes needed a permit to land a helicopter in Cedar Rapids on October 19 while Paula Prentiss did not require one for a landing on August 9. Police later noted an uncongested area allowance could exempt some landings, but Mt. Mercy campus landing did require a permit. Cedar Rapids and Dubuque also discuss water rate hikes to fund plant expansions with Cedar Rapids considering an 18 cent rate in heavy-use brackets and a sliding scale study with IBM.
