  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

They initially plan on this upcoming Monday, August 19, 2019 pending any threat of severe weather. Brian Wright, Muscatine Co. Emergency Management ([email protected]). • DPW/Curb Cuts: In the past Roadway Maintenance has sawed curb cuts and removed pavement for contractors at no charge. The reason we did this was to control the depth of the saw cut to ensure that the remaining concrete was not broken along the saw line. Doing this is time consuming and costly to the department and there are contractors within the city that can provide this service. The department is planning to cease providing this free service and directing all contractors to contact a local contractor with the proper sawing equipment to have them do the work. The city Right of Way inspector would inspect the saw cuts and removal to make sure that it meets specifications. • Bi-State: Please see the attached July 2019 Public Officials Directory. This document is also available on their website, www.bistateonline.org, in a module on the left-hand side of the home page or under Documents, Administration. • Tourism: Roger Brooks and Destination Development have a number of interesting articles, emails or short reads on tourism and downtown development.
