Boundary change plan for Iowa Nebraska river line aims for mid channel
Des Moines reports a plan by the Iowa Nebraska boundary commissions to adopt the river’s middle channel as the official line. A October meeting will decide disputed areas between Council Bluffs and Omaha. The ruling will go to state legislatures for final adoption. The commissions seek to end road, bridge, and title uncertainties caused by the Missouri River’s shifting course. Iowa members include H B Walling and Q W Crowley with changes since the effort began.
