The Friends of Bunker Mill Bridge board has been dissolved. A forum dealing with why this happened and the future of the bridge’s restoration is scheduled for 7:30 on Tuesday evening at the Kalona Chamber of Commerce.

According to Executive Director of the Friends group Julie Bowers, the board was dysfunctional due to conflicts between her and members of the board. Some of those disputes stemmed from claims that Bowers was withholding information from the board while keeping local residents from running the group.
