Mayor Corbett is encouraging citizens to shop at local businesses that have been closed over the past few weeks due to flooding, and we are happy to help!
Despite the majority of us dodging a bullet here in Cedar Rapids after last week's flood, I returned downtown over the weekend, admittedly still expecting a certain amount of desolation. I'm happy to say, I was pleasantly surprised.
Nexterra, which is affiliated with the Duane Arnold Energy Center in Palo, made a $25,000 donation to the Red Cross Friday morning to be given directly to those affected by the flood.
