Good morning, Des Moines.

Nearly 30 people leaving jail attended a Des Moines job fair on Sept.

30 that set up interviews with two local employers to help them restart their careers.

William Shatner, the 95-year-old Iowa native known for his role as Captain Kirk, said in a Sept.

30 social media post he would consider returning if given a meaningful new project. He recently rocked at Riot Fest with his heavy metal band and awaits a worthy offer.

State lawmakers will convene on Oct.

2 in a special session to modify the MEGA program after Gov. Kim Reynolds called for changes near the planned $15 billion steel plant in Lee County. The proposal would boost tax credits to attract major investments and create high-quality jobs.

Des Moines recorded 13.77 inches of rain in September through Sept.

30, with a forecast of 1.04 inches on the final day to break the 14.81-inch record (set in 1914). A flood watch remains until 1 a.m. Friday.

Iowa reorganizes its public health system by grouping county departments regionally — one department will lead and administer funds, and the Polk County Health Department is in contention amid concerns that rural areas may lose essential services if 15% of funds cover administration.

Rob Sand, running for governor, said he needs more details on state incentives before supporting tax credits for a proposed Lee County steel mill that would create 1700 jobs; the House and Senate will meet Friday to consider credits for Mesabi Metallics+ a subsidiary of Essar Group.
