City to form utility relief fund from power refunds
Snyder and Marshall praised the HUD program, with a 45 to 60 day environmental review and a late January credit letter expected. The city allocated 25 percent of Power & Light overcharge refunds, totaling 22,982.51 after legal fees, to seed the fund for low income utility relief, while 75 percent returns to electric funds. A nine member citizen committee will administer eligibility and distribution, with initial local volunteers named.

Harvest Across Regions Reflect Mixed Wheat and Soybean Yields
Farmers report varied results from rye and wheat stands with some fields dry and ready for combines while others struggle. Soybeans in Ottawa Ricmond and Williamsburg areas show above average test weights but broad yields range from 12 to 33 bushels per acre. Seed quality and late planting shaped outcomes as weather cooperated later, while greenbug pressures loom and winter conditions could alter next spring results.
