County Abandons Plan To Straighten Nishnabotna River
Mills County Board of Supervisors dropped a plan to straighten the Nishnabotna River north of the county bridge on Highway H-38 east of Malvern. The project would have cost Mills County three-eighths of the share with Iowa Power and Light Co. paying five-eighths, but future maintenance concerns led to the shutdown. The board also ordered a 1,000 foot road closure south of the packing house for maintenance until further notice.
