City Of Manning Donating A Newly Developed Lot To The IKM-Manning School District
The Manning City Council has approved donating one of the Stadium View Drive lots to the IKM-Manning School District for the school’s upcoming trade project. Back in June, the school district approved partnering up with Manning Municipal Utilities (MMU) to provide students with a work-based learning of the different trades used when constructing a new house. The City of Manning will donate one of the lots from the Stadium View pocket neighborhood to be the permanent location for the students’ project. Once completed, the house will become available for purchase by interested buyers. The other homes in the neighborhood are currently being designed and constructed by Origin Homes, a custom-home building contractor based out of West Des Moines. Those interested in learning more about the work-based learning school program can call Jeremey Carroll at MMU at 712-655-3905, or questions about the Stadium View Drive lots available can be directed to City Administrator Dawn Meyer at 712-655-2176.

The Carroll County Board of Supervisors is considering a gift of county-owned land to the City of Halbur for potential trail development. The board hosted a public hearing during its July 15 meeting regarding the property transfer and did not receive any comments from the public opposed to the county handing over the half-mile stretch of land just on the west side of Halbur. The supervisors were supportive of the move, but Board Chair Stephanie Haumsan and District 3 Supervisor Gene Meiners wanted clarification on whether the county had first right of refusal.
