Injunction Sought To Stop Lombard Street Grading In Muscatine
Mrs. Lizzie V. Blankenship seeks temporary and permanent court orders to halt city work grading Lombard Street and the related alley from Lombard to Brook south of Second Street. She claims the project would create a frog pond on her lot, block drainage, and cut off access to her garage, while asking removal of a wall and noting a 1900 grade baseline now exceeded by 14 feet. The suit names Muscatine city officials as defendants and cites KTNT radio station approaches as the impetus.
