Prairie City News appeals Jasper County supervisors’ legal notices decision

Earlier this week, the Prairie City News filed an appeal against the Jasper County Board of Supervisors’ designation of official newspapers for 2013.

According to Iowa Code, Jasper County may only designate three official newspapers each year. This year, Newton Daily News, Jasper County Tribune of Colfax, Hometown Press of Sully and Prairie City News all requested official newspaper status.

Following instructions spelled out by state law, the supervisors selected Newton Daily News, Jasper County Tribune and Hometown Press as official newspapers. Those papers each supplied bona fide yearly subscriber lists with more certified circulation than the Prairie City News.
