Snow removal update:
-Crews continue to plow today, Wednesday, Dec. 30, 2020. Due to the heavy snowfall rate, crews focused on arterial streets and bus routes on Tuesday and into the night.
-As of 3:00 am Wednesday, crews moved on to the remaining residential streets. Once that initial pass is complete, they will start on the cul-de-sacs (which require an end loader).
-After all remaining streets and cul-de-sacs have had a first pass, crews will push back snow from curbs and haul snow from intersections as needed

Farm man George Prehoda stands by his open truck cab (Walch, p. 34). The truck bed, made of wooden boards, contains a large pile of corn.
In addition to farming, George Prehoda volunteered as Coralville's first fire chief. When interviewed, he could remember three fires occurring while he was in this position: one at the Carlton house, the second on a spur line on the Rock Island railway, and the third at a garage the fire fighters rented from the Mayor Edward Koser to use as a fire house (Lovetinsky et al., p. 52-53).

Description
An account of the resource
Coralville residents gather outside Koser's Store before embarking on an expedition to see the flooded riverbanks of the Iowa River. Flood water can be seen flowing through the street; two men work with a chain in front of a parked truck, while two other man stand further back from the camera, holding up a bottle as if to toast someone.
The second version of the image is written on in marker; the writer points out different individuals and items in the photograph. Starting from left to right:
"Dad" points to Joseph A. Brandstatter, who wears overalls . He holds up his arm, holding what appears to be a bottle.
An unknown word points to the bottle in Brandstatter's hand.
"Rarey" points to Ray Rarey, who wears a white shirt. He stands next to Brandstatter, also with his arm up; he holds a different bottle in his other hand.
"Refrigerators" points to the two refrigerators sitting on the front porch of Koser's Store.
"John Wineke" points to a man standing in the back of the truck, wearing a hat. He looks directly at the camera. John dressed poultry for Koser's Store.
"Vera" points to a woman also standing in the bed of the truck. This is Vera (Koser) Russell, the daughter of Edward and Harriet (Paintin) Koser. Edward was the original owner of Koser's Store.
Rex Brandstatter identified the man in the truck looking away from the camera as Wade Russell, Vera's husband and the owner of Koser's Store when this photo was taken. The boy is Wade and Vera's eldest son Jimmy Lee, born 1936 (Brandstatter; Lovetinsky et al., p. 110-111).
