Barville Wins Round in Relocation Fight Over Highway 20
A Iowa board fight over relocating primary No. 20 ends with Judge Hesner denying the Highway Commission the right to grade drain and pave within Earlville city limits and making the temporary injunction permanent. The commission may pave the stretch outside town or wait for legislative authority. The current No. 20 route cuts through the business district, while the commission favored a straight line two blocks north, impacting four street corners.
