Birth notices dated Sept 6 list newborn daughters and sons to Mercy Hospital and multiple Cedar Rapids area families including Kirk Procok and Gear Swisher Muench Schaldecker Farmer Zern Quigley Peters etc. Also police and fire log entries record incidents along Cedar Rapids Marion and surrounding towns with times from Sunday evening to Tuesday morning.
Barge User Fee Proposal and Impacts on Transport
The plan mirrors highway fuel taxes and river maintenance costs across a 300 mile waterway. It would tax commercial barge use via fuel and locking fees while recreational boaters face no fee. Increases include grain 0.4 cent per bushel and coal 10 cents per ton, yet overall barge rates would stay far lower than rail costs.
