City Manager, Mike Pogge-Weaver, says they have dialed in to a lot of different specifics, including the empty JC Penney building in the downtown business district.
The next step in giving residents an opportunity to provide reaction, input and comments will come next week at a virtual presentation of the initial plan on Wednesday, Feb. 24.

It will also be aired on local access cable, CAAT6, channels. Questions can be submitted prior to the meeting or feedback afterward. Details on how to join, how to submit comments or questions and a link to the survey and interactive map can be found below. The full interview with Cowell

Since establishing a presence along Highway 4 near Cooper in 2014, NEW Cooperative has seen that location come to dominate sales statewide in anhydrous ammonia. The Fort Dodge-based co-op enjoyed $1.1 billion in total sales across all departments in fiscal-year 2020. In addition to the feed mill and grain elevator now under construction at the Cooper site, NEW is also building a new port on the Missouri River for direct access to export markets.
