"I enjoyed meeting with the delegation from Ames area today," said King. "Hearing from city and county officials, representatives from Iowa State University, business professionals, and influential political leaders on issues important to the people in the Ames area was very informative. Ames is poised to leverage the agricultural and biotechnology knowledge base, the national impact by Iowa State University, and the entrepreneurial spirit of Iowans through stable and continued growth. In order to achieve these goals, the issues with rural water entities must be resolved for these communities."
