metal grates... which are expensive to replace.now... downtown partners is trying a new system that surrounds the trees with a semi- permeable, rubber substance. 3 "the cost is very minimal so really we figured lets test this area, see how it works for sioux city in the winter. see how things go and if we like it, we'll keep spreading it around"each tree costs around 200 dollars to surround with the rubber... compared to 12- hundred dollars for steel grates.the trial grates are being used on 9 trees on 4th street between pierce and nebraska. 3 sioux city police say good surveillance video is the reason they were able to quickly arrest the suspect of on the west side.23- year- old regan maryland of houston texas is in custody tonight.he's charged with first degree robbery in connection to friday's robbery at k and n auto on center street.maryland's currently being held in the woodbury county jail.police say just before noon friday... he went into the repair shop and asked an employee to look at his car. when the employee went

mayor, where's our councilmen, our elected members. where are you?"although council was made aware of the meeting, mar bob scott says other obligations kept him from attending. "i think i got an email on this particular meeting, but all the council was copied so i assumed somebody would go there. wrong assumption on my part. when i found out there was a concern that i wasn't there, i texted the chief to let him know i was in another meeting." but sheriff dave drew says it's *the state* that we should be looking to for assistance. "when we have these meetings, when i get somewhat frustrated, i am the sheriff and chief young is the chief. we are in law enforcement. the ones that make legislative change should be at some of these meetings and when you don't see them it becomes a source of frustration for all of law enforcement because we're the ones dealing with it."one suggestion was the creation of a detox center... which assists in rehabilitating these individuals. "all we are doing is the punishment part and we're not dealing with the rehabilitation part, which we think is important."one option

discussed to accomplish this was to utilize funds generated by the new cf industries plant. "all of us want to see property tax reduction. we know the supervisors will do that, but there certainly is enough money for the supervisors to consider developing adequate intervention programs. "as many voiced their concerns and looked for solutions, this town hall meeting was the first of many steps to fix these ongoing problems. "what we heard today is a challenge. this issue is an issue for all of us native and non-native. let's get about coming together and see what we can do to change matters."in sioux city, jaclyn driscoll, siouxland news. 3 those in attendance say these meetings will continue until the city sees a decrease in these specific problems. 3

"our role as a nurse, we are the advocate for these patients. you know we go into these homes, and some patients have no families,they have no body to help them. so they need a voice, they need somebody to help them to say, i have stairs in my home and i can't get up and down them." home care nurses also help

connect patients with other services they need. "we can get them connected with other agencies, you know for transportation, for meals on wheels for house keeping there are so many things that we can get them connected with that people do not realize that are out in our community that are available."they are also there in crucial moments, to help patients get what they need immediately. "when we go into the homes we assess the patient and if we find there is something wrong or something not quite right, we call the doctor's office." but jill's favorite part about the job,... " you know you really develop a really close relationship with these people its really nice." if you think you might need home health care, just ask your doctor. kayla novak, siouxland news. 3 "healthwatch is brought to you by dunes surgical hospital in assocation with mercy medical center." 3 chad's got a final check of
