Travel
The Des Moines City Council approved travel funding in the amount of $743.20 for Mayor T.M. Franklin Cownie to visit Atlanta, Georgia, from April 26 to April 28 to attend the Walkability Action Institute as a team member to participate in training and produce an action plan for a more walkable community. Attending the action institute represents further public investment in walkability improvements, and opportunity to establish a common foundation among team members, and a space to create a shared framework for public health issues in Des Moines and the region. The institute will help develop a message and strategy that aligns with a national movement and resonates on a state and regional level. Grant money has been secured through the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors and the Center for Disease Control to help offset a majority of the cost of the trip. CV
