DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa could see more than $100 million cut from federal grants that would reduce finances for early education, job training and low-income assistance. The budget proposal by President Donald Trump was analyzed in new documents from a nonpartisan state agency that highlight Trump’s suggested elimination of several block grants for the state.

While Trump’s suggested cuts face an uphill battle in Congress, Iowa could be responsible for offsetting federal reductions as early as October or allowing programs to end. Bill Brand, a division administrator for an energy efficiency program in low-income homes, says while he hopes some of the programs are saved, it cannot be assumed that funding will continue.

A spokeswoman for Gov. Kim Reynolds says the office will work with federal partners to ensure funding priorities are met.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — A fresh paint job on a prominent Sioux City water storage tank will pay homage to a hit 1940s song that that features the city in its title.

The Sioux City Journal reports the city plans to decorate the Singing Hills water tank with the city’s name and notes from “Sioux City Sue,” the 1945 tune by Dick Thomas and Ray Freedman.

The tank, one of eight water storage facilities in Sioux City, sits atop a hill in Sertoma Park, where it is noticeable from Interstate 29, the Highway 75 bypass, Cone Park and Southern Hills Mall. It hasn’t been repainted since its construction in the mid-1990s and would be the first to sport a city-funded painting design.

DUBUQUE, Iowa (AP) — Family, teachers and friends are remembering an eastern Iowa teen who reached her goal last week of graduating from high school — just two days before she died after a months-long battle with cancer.

The Telegraph Herald reports 18-year-old Allison Cress graduated from Hempstead High School in Dubuque on June 3. The feat came after she was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer in September a little more than two weeks after starting her senior year.

She was able to spend only three or four weeks in class during the school year, but worked with a tutor and taught herself. On Monday, she died at home in Asbury, Iowa, surrounded by her family.

NORTH ENGLISH, Iowa (AP) — Authorities say a domestic disturbance in southeast Iowa led to the fatal shooting of a man by an officer. The Iowa County Sheriff’s Office says in a news release that its deputies and Williamsburg Police were called around 8:30 p.m. Saturday for a domestic disturbance involving a gun at a house in North English. North English is about 35 miles southwest of Iowa City.

The sheriff’s department said the confrontation culminated in an officer shooting a man, who was pronounced dead at the scene. Officials did not release the man’s name or give details about what led to the shooting. Neither had officials released by midday Sunday the names of the officers involved in the shooting.

The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation has taken over the investigation into the shooting.

The Iowa Board of Medical Examiners said in a press release June 7th, that a 62-year-old Iowa-licensed physician who formerly practiced family medicine in Exira, has entered into a combined Statement of Charges and Settlement Agreement with the Board. The Board charged Dr. James D. Brokke with failing to conform to the
minimal standard of acceptable and prevailing practice of medicine when he failed to provide appropriate medical care to multiple patients in Exira, between 2013 and 2016.

On March 30, 2004, Dr. Brokke entered into a combined Statement of Charges, Settlement Agreement and Final Order. The Board charged Dr. Brokke with inappropriately prescribing controlled substances to numerous patients and engaging in unprofessional conduct. The Board suspended Dr. Brokke’s Iowa medical license, ordered him to pay a $7,500 civil penalty, and required him to complete a clinical competency evaluation, mental health evaluation and professional boundaries program prior to seeking reinstatement.

On December 16, 2004, the Board reinstated Dr. Brokke’s Iowa medical license and placed him on probation for a period of five years subject to Board monitoring. On February 24, 2009, the Board terminated the terms of probation. Under the terms of the June 2, 2017, combined Statement of Charges and Settlement Agreement, Dr. Brokke voluntarily surrendered his Iowa medical license to resolve this matter.
