On April 10th, Governor Reynolds signed our top le

On April 10th, Governor Reynolds signed our top legislative priority – Storm Water SF455. This was the biggest victory for the affordability of housing in a couple of decades. Throughout this process, and particularly at the end, there was a significant amount of conflicting information put out to create confusion amongst the legislators. At its core, SF455 limits the Stormwater controls cities and counties can impose upon developers. The soil condition at the time of development will be what is used for engineering calculations, upstream flows will not be the responsibility of the developers, and overall, we anticipate the savings on a standard lot to be in the $5-6k per lot range. Developers will not be absolved of Stormwater management and the cities and counties will still oversee the design and installation process. The Bill also allows the cities and counties the flexibility to be more restrictive if they feel it appropriate. The only caveat is that the cities and counties will pay the difference for the added restrictions. This could save these entities millions over having to rework lacking Stormwater infrastructure that exists in these developed areas. We appreciate the hard work and leadership of Senator Scott Webster (who’s a builder from Bettendorf) and Representative Jon Dunwell (Newton), who managed the bill in their respective chambers. ⁠

⁠
What is Make48?⁠
⁠
Make48 brings a 48-hour competition to cities where teams are presented with a challenge and tasked to build a physical prototype, create a sales sheet, produce a 1-minute marketing video, and pitch their big idea to a panel of judges. Many people have big ideas but few possess the resources to develop a prototype that turns them into reality. To build anything, different skills, materials, and equipment must work together to create a final product. Make48 allows this process to be achieved with a fun, fast-paced, and educational event by providing the tool tech experts who can build anything in a makerspace environment full of tools & equipment. It’s filmed for a television documentary series as well!⁠
