Crash Update (Sioux County): Two people died in a three-vehicle crash on Highway 10 near Hicory Avenue.

State-Federal Permitting: Gov. Kim Reynolds and the Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council signed an MOU to streamline permitting by aligning Iowa with the FAST-41 process and timelines for environmental reviews.

Local Giving: Waverly Community Foundation awarded $66,000 in Oliver H. Mitchell Scholarships to Bremer County graduates.
