NOTICE: Ida Grove Cemetery Guidelines After reviewing the past year and its maintenance challenges, the Ida Grove Cemetery Board has come to the conclusion which dictates a change in cemetery policy concerning flower vases, memorial plaques, decorative rods, solar lights and other ornaments at the gravesite. While the cemetery encourages placement of flowers on the graves of loved ones, we find it is necessary to impose restrictions concerning loose items located at the foundations of the monuments at each gravesite. Keeping the cemetery mowed and trimmed is a very labor intensive undertaking, due to the overall size of the cemetery and its layout. We are not able to continue to mow/trim around multiple structures at each grave site; therefore, the following regulations concerning decorations shall apply to gravesites at the Ida Grove Cemetery effective as of January 22, 2017. Cemetery clean-up times will be the first week in April and beginning the first full week after the 4th of July holiday. All decorations and containers located on the grave must be removed by these pre-determined clean-up times or they will be removed by the maintenance staff. Fresh Floral Regulations - As soon as flowers, wreaths, emblems etc., used at funerals become unsightly and faded, and/or after three weeks’ time, they will be removed. There will be no trees, shrubs or flowers planted around a gravesite at any time. The trustees reserve the right to remove any trees, shrubs or flowers that have been planted inappropriately. No hedges, rocks, fences or enclosures of any kind will be permitted on or around cemetery lots. Outlining the gravesite with flowers or anything else is not permitted. Glass receptacles are not permitted at any time and will be removed immediately without notice. Artificial Floral Regulations - All flowers not in monument containers or on a personal concrete foundation and all wreaths will be removed at the July cleanup date. Any loose artificial flowers will be removed by the maintenance staff. Regulations Regarding Items other than Flowers - Decorative shepherds’ rods may remain at the grave site as long as they are placed next to the base of the foundation on the north or south side. The limit for a shepherds’ rod or garden flag is one per grave site. These structures will not be removed on cleanup days as long as they do not become unsightly or unstable. Any rods that remain empty for a year will be red tagged and removed to the cemetery shed. Any loose toys, boxes, ornaments, figurines vases, stuffed animals, solar lights and other memorabilia will need to be removed by the family before the 4th of July clean-up date. Otherwise, they will be removed by the maintenance staff. The Cemetery Board is asking to please help us with this effort so no one loses any items that are meaningful to the family. It is not our intention to purposely dispose of any family ornaments, but to maintain a well-kept, beautiful cemetery. The Ida Grove Cemetery Association does not assume responsibility for the loss or damage of any floral decorations, other decorations or their containers. Small figurines, stuffed animals and other memorabilia placed at the grave site are placed at your own risk and are subject to the regulations regarding the two pre-determined clean up days. Pets are welcome to come with families to the cemetery, but the cemetery grounds are not a dog park. All pets are required to be on a leash when at the cemetery. Any dogs running loose will be impounded with the owner responsible for any fines assessed. Please bring appropriate collection bags for your pet’s waste. There are garbage cans on the east side of the equipment shed, if necessary. We strive to provide a well-maintained and appealing cemetery for your loved ones’ final resting place. All decisions and rulings of the Ida Grove Cemetery are governed by the Iowa Cemetery Act, Chapter 5231 and the Trustees of Corwin Township. Corwin Township Clerk: Linda Burk Corwin Township Trustees: Dennis Sykes & Rand Whitney

RESOLUTION 18-13 RESOLUTION FOR DESTRUCTION OF WEEDS
TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS: BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, IDA COUNTY, IOWA, THAT PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF CHAPTER 317, CODE OF IOWA, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED: 1. That each owner and each person in the possession or control of any lands in Ida County shall cut, burn, or otherwise destroy all noxious weeds thereon, as deďŹ ned in this chapter, at such times in each year and in such manner as shall prevent said weeds from blooming or coming into maturity, and shall keep said lands free from such growth or any other weeds as shall render the streets or highways adjoining said lands unsafe for public travel. Noxious weeds shall be cut or otherwise destroyed on or before the following dates and as often thereafter as is necessary to prevent seed production. GROUP 1. (April 15 to May 15) Leafy Spurge, Perennial Pepper-grass, Sour Dock, Smooth Dock, Red Sheep Sorrel, Teasel, Musk Thistle, Bull Thistle and other Biennial Thistles, Curly Dock, Multiora Rose, Spring or Summer. GROUP 2. (May 15 to July 1) Canada Thistle, Russian Knapweed, Buckhorn, Wild Mustard, Wild Sunower, Tall Thistle, Buckthorn and Poison Hemlock. GROUP 3. (July 1 to August 1) Field Bindweed, Wild Carrot, Horse Nettle, Perennial Sow Thistle, Quackgrass, Velvetleaf, Puncture vine, Cocklebur, Shattercane, and any other Biennial Thistles. 2. That each owner and each person in the possession or control of any lands in Ida County infested with any noxious weeds including Quackgrass, Perennial Sow Thistle, Canada Thistle, Field Bindweeds, Horse Nettle, Leafy Spurge, Perennial Pepper-grass, and Russian Knapweed shall adopt a program of weed destruction, prescribed by the Weed Commissioner, which in ďŹ ve days may be expected to destroy and will immediately keep under control such infestations of said noxious weeds. 3. That all weeds other than noxious weeds on all county trunk and local county roads between fence lines thereof shall be mowed after July 15, 2018 by the adjoining property owner to prevent seed production. 4. That each owner and each person in the possession or control of any land in Ida County, including county road right of ways, infested with any noxious weeds is encouraged to spray the weeds in addition to mowing. Spraying troublesome areas will help to keep brush under control resulting in less drifting of snow on the roadway. Brush not killed by spraying will need to be cut and treated to prevent regrowth. 5. That if the owner or person in possession or control of any land in Ida County fail to comply with the foregoing orders, the Weed Commissioner shall cause this to be done and the expenses of said work, including costs of serving notice and other costs, pursuant to Iowa Code Section 317.16 and 317.21. 6. That the County Auditor be and is hereby directed to cause notice of the making and entering of the foregoing order by one publication in each of the ofďŹ cial newspapers of the county. 7. Any farmer having an area that he does not want sprayed along the roadside must agree to post this area with "No Spraying" signs and keep it free and clear of weeds and brush at his own expense. If it is not kept cleaned up, the Weed Commissioner shall have the authority to spray this area. The above Resolution was offered by Supervisor Drey who moved its adoption, which was seconded by Supervisor Leonard and carried all voting Aye, and the County Auditor directed to have notice published in the ofďŹ cial newspapers pursuant to Chapter 317, Code of Iowa. Whereupon the Chair declared the Resolution duly adopted this 26th day of March, 2018. /s/ Rhett Leonard, Chair

THANK YOU: I’ve always known that there is something special about this place we call home and, WOW, what a wonderful community we live in! Mike & I are feeling so blessed.

Jeremy & Tara Parks, Nikki Ehrig, Jaquie Struck & Nicole Knop: you all went above & beyond anything we could have expected. Many thanks to our family & friends that helped with all the preparation leading up to, during & after the benefit.

Thanks to all the businesses & individuals who donated the food, raffle items, bake sale items & auction items. My Food Pride family has been there for us since day one & will continue to be there for us. Pat, you’re always there in the shadows, doing more than anyone knows! The outpouring of support & generosity has been & continues to be overwhelming! Mike naturally worries about us but, between God, family, friends & community, we are in good hands.

EXCESSIVE DRAMA The psychological condition known as “histrionic personality disorder� (HPD) is characterized by erratic and emotionally charged behavior that is typically triggered by a distorted self-image and a desire for attention. While HPD is not considered to be a severe mental health problem, it may impede social, occupational, and academic functioning to the point where it may prove to be detrimental to one’s progress and development. Because personalities (the combination of traits that produce thought and behavioral patterns that are unique to an individual) vary greatly from individual to individual, it is difficult to determine what is “normal.� For this reason histrionic personality disorder remains a challenge to diagnose and treat (most often with psychotherapy). Many people with histrionic personality disorder have good social skills; however, they tend to use these skills to manipulate others so that they can be the center of attention. We help people just like you— and nothing like you—every single day. We welcome people of all ages and from all backgrounds. Respect and understanding is at the core of what we do. Call our office today at 712-364-3500 or 800-325-1192. Our address is 700 East 2nd St., Ida Grove. We help people cope with everyday living. P.S. “Histrionic personality disorder� (HPD) is the only personality disorder to be explicitly related to physical appearance.
