Four family members involved in an Armed Bank Robbery in martelle will spend at least a decade in prison. Today, a judge sentenced brothers shiloh and Andrew Palmer to 12 years in federal prison. They went into Exchange State Bank in april with shotguns and demanded money. They left with more than 33 thousand dollars. Their sister Elizabeth Olinger and her husband peter provided getaway cars in the robbery. Prosecutors also said it was elizabeths idea to rob the bank. She received the longest sentence at 16 years. Peter received 10 years. During the sentencing, a judge called the plan more sophisticated than usual robberies. In this case, the brothers left the bank in a getaway car that Peter Olinger was driving. The three met up with, elizabeth, where they burned the first getaway car and switched to another getaway car. Deputies arrested the four hours later during a traffic stop. Some people in waterloo want to prohibit prospective employers, landlords, and others from asking whether applicants are convicted felons. They call the Initiative Ban the box. It refers to the box on many application forms that asks person is a convict rep the landlords of black hawk say its looking out for Property Owners who are not in an association and dont know how to perform a background check. Those that cant defend themselves or who are ignorant on the topic also need defending whether they are members or not. He says without the box, landlords may not know about an applicants past. If they dont do a background check or forget to, you may inadvertently put a pedophile, a sex offender, a drug person, someone convicted of repeated issues of violence, next to someone you love, and nobody wants that. The Waterloo Human Rights Commission supports banning the box and is bringing the issue to city council to protect citizens. Landlords say this box is a necessity, but the Commission Says its only hurting people who want to start over in life. The idea is that when you go in for an application, if the box is removed, you dont signal to the employer or the landlord that you have a record. So youre treated as a human being, because most people with criminal records arent treated humanly. Dr. Blackwell says a renter will be able to market themselves to a landlord, without immediately flagging that they have a record. The landlord can later decide to preform a background check if it feels it is necessary they paid the price, theyve been punished, and now theyre wanting to return and become productive citizens. The Waterloo City Council discuss the issue at a work session monday. In waterloo, brea love, kcrgtv nine news.

The Trinity Episcopal Church had filed the lawsuit, trying to stop the 15story building from going up on the corner of gilbert and college streets. Plans call for the tower to house dozens of apartments, a hotel, offices, a movie theatre, and a bowling alley. The lawsuit alleged that the city council violated the citys comprehensive plan when it approved rezoning for the building earlier this year. The comprehensiv e plan calls for transition areas between but the judge said he found nothing in the plan to prevent rezoning for the chauncey project. Were getting our first look at potential plans for an iowa city park that has flooded the last two years. Tonight, people reviewed renderings and provided feedback of lower city park. Potential plans include a new festival lawn and stage, as well as new playground. One design would relocate baseball and softball fields in addition to tennis courts.

Its part of a initiative to cut down on homeowners energy bills. Going green. Some people in turning to solar energy to provide electricity for their homes.

It looks like any other main street. 17 15 24 within just a few blocks you can see eight or ten solar systems. But mounted on rooftops, rows of black panels are soaking in sun, powering buildings below. In decorah, this is the new normal. 17 03 41 we think theres about 130 arrays in the city of decorah, at least 30 or 40 of those are on businesses, and the rest are on homes. Homes like this one where barbara dale lives with her husband jim. The pair contemplated switching to solar for years. 17 41 14 when we heard in 2013 that Alliant Energy might end its rebates, we said okay, we better do this now. Now, nearly two years after the pair installed this set of panels, they say theyve nearly eliminated energy bills. For homeowner Larry Grimstad clean energy is now a way of life. 17 21 58 i have a five year old and seven year old grandsons and other grandchildren and its just my responsibility. Solar panels feed electricity to his home, charge his electric cars, and clothes dryers are a thing of the past. Its a trend the Winneshiek Energy district is working to bring to more homes, businesses, and even cities. But they understand this comes with a cost. 17 05 09 they do it when it makes sense for the pocketbook. Johnson says solar energy is more affordable now than ever before. But tax incentives that nearly slash Solar Panel Prices in half for homeowners are set to expire in 2017. Really, important. Johnson says people in Winneshiek County alone spend roughly 100 Million Dollars on energy each year. Money that mostly leaves the state through gas and electricity lines. Its a loss he hopes to stop. 17 14 22 thats economic development, thats jobs. Our goal is 100 percent local energy and Renewable Energy by mid century. A goal he hopes other communities will also adopt. In decorah, Sarah Mccarthy, kcrgtv9 news. The group will hold an Energy Extravaganza this saturday.
