With a new retail business coming to Kalona, the City plans to ask the state DOT for a favor. Splitting a commercial lot in the Harvest Hill Subdivision for the business was approved by the City Council earlier this month. The subdivision is located on Highway 1, which the Department of Transportation plans to resurface in the spring. Mayor Ken Herington says the city is going to request that the DOT put in a turn lane to avoid traffic issues.
