Iowa City businessman Mark Nolte won t run for governor in 2022
At the end of 2019, Mark Nolte stepped down from years of steering the Iowa City Area Development Group. He was preparing to lead the North Liberty-based Moxie Solar through an expansion of its solar panel manufacturing capacity, but the big news was his plans for 2022.
While not official, Nolte told the Press-Citizen at the time that he also planned to spend the time exploring his political aspirations to decide whether he would pursue an independent gubernatorial bid in 2022.
But over the weekend, Nolte announced that Nolte for Iowa Campaign was giving up the ghost.

The Department of Transportation Services is discussing a pilot program that would provide late-night and Sunday transit services to Iowa City.
The Daily Iowan reports that during Saturday’s work session, the City Council heard from Director of Transportation Services Darian Nagle-Gamm, who told them the department is considering altering the current schedule and increasing the hours of transit service for community members.
The pilot program, which would be self-funded, would be presented to Council if funding is approved in February or March.
The current fiscal year’s transit study will take longer to complete this time around due to the coronavirus pandemic. The study, in coordination with the Iowa City Area Development Group, will include suggestions on how to improve rider experience.
