Memo detailing Tama County’s contract dispute with Secondary Roads Union released

TOLEDO – A 100-page memo hit the final regular October meeting of the Tama County Supervisors like a brick. It is an explanation of the recent problems the board has had with the union representing the county’s secondary roads employees. A tale of two contracts, the county states that only one is official, as the other has changes that were made without the previous board’s approval — four changes between the contracts, the majority of which were made in the last few months of the previous board’s tenure, and one item the current board won’t budge on.

Large Grant for Public Transit

The Black Hawk County Gaming Association has awarded a $750,000 grant to improve public transit in Waterloo and Cedar Falls. A joint initiative between the cities and MET Transit is looking to raise a total of $4.6million to fund a micro-transit pilot program. The program will use smaller passenger vans to navigate designated zones to provide shared rides that connect riders directly to their destination or link them efficiently to MET Transit’s existing fixed route bus network. Ideally, it would be a “first-mile/last-mile” connector. Specific passenger fares remain under evaluation but the program aims to lower transit barriers, shorten travel times, and increase ridership across the transit system.
