Last month and again this month the Vinton City Council met with members of the Vinton Country Club concerning their water rates. Back in 2017 the city ordinance changed which had been giving the Vinton Country Club a reduction in their water bill for being in what was called the "Tier Three" for water usage in Vinton. The "Tier Three" was set up to assist manufacturers that used to be located in town and who needed a large amount of water to operate.

 Today, Gov. Kim Reynolds signed an extension for a proclamation relating to the weight limits and hours of service requirements for the transportation of crop inputs for planting season. The extension is effective immediately and continues through June 11, 2022.
