While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

Information contained in the workbook was collected from a variety of sources including City of Des Moines Departments, outside agencies that provide services in the City, and information from the U.S. Census Bureau. The workbook has two purposes. First, to give readers an insight to the many facets of Des Moines: how the City works; little known facts that show the extent of services provided to citizens and the infrastructure we use daily; and a description of services we use as residents every day. Second, to inspire discussion among citizens and encourage people to participate in the process over the next year as a new vision for Des Moines evolves through the development of a new Comprehensive Plan.

At the end of every year, I like to look back and reflect on all the amazing things we’ve accomplished in 12 short months, and 2016 is no different. I can’t help but feel proud of everything Prairie Meadows accomplished this past year. When Prairie Meadows began operations in 1989, the company envisioned a long-term goal of promoting economic development, jobs, agriculture, and tourism for the state of Iowa. As a not-for-profit organization, we are motivated by this goal, and this deep GARY PALMER dedication to our community makes us exceptionally passionate about what we do. Our PRESIDENT/CEO team is not only passionate about their work and making Prairie Meadows a premier entertainment destination of the Midwest, but also about transforming the lives of those living in Central Iowa. In 2016, we continued our commitment to caring for our communities. From funding numerous school programs to the building and renovation of multiple health centers, Prairie Meadows has played a major role in revitalizing the Greater Des Moines area.
