Steve Mullan
Steve Mullan is the senior-most City Council member
serving the City of Newton. He represents the 4th Ward,
and has served on the City Council since January 2006.
Steve has lived in Newton for 47 years. Find out what he
thinks you should get to know about Newton!
What do you think people should “get to know” about Newton?
Everything begins with us. Seek opportunities to better know and appreciate and/or join the diverse organizations
and hardworking individuals who collectively work unselfishly in moving Newton forward. This teamwork is making a huge difference in reinventing our community, encouraging others to move, play and work here. Armed with
knowledge about our city, we need to be ambassadors of our job diversity, quality health care, solid school system,
advanced educational opportunities, public art, park system, and a variety of recreational choices by spreading
the good news. Our central location is a plus in drawing others to share our safe, wholesome community, which is
poised for planned future growth.
Why did you choose to raise your family in Newton?
I love what a smaller community has to offer in shorter drives to most businesses, fewer traffic snarls, and personally knowing most business owners. Living in the center of the state is great for special events in Des Moines, Ames,
Iowa City – all within an easy drive. Also, Newton provides a safe environment, educational excellence, and an
abundance of recreational opportunities.
Why should business and industry consider Newton?
Newton offers location, space, a railroad, access to I-80, an airport, a community college, a very good K-12 school
system, a progressive government, quality work force, a smaller rural/city atmosphere and a safe place to live.
How is Newton preparing for the future?
With our housing initiative in place, our D&D program in progress, our continuing efforts to foster more job diversity, our Main Street designation, all based on the Buxton and Chat reports, we are a city on the move.
What is Newton’s best-kept secret?
Newton has a long history of private/public partnerships in meeting the needs in the community. Our city is a haven
for public art now reaching close to a total of one hundred. Certainly, Maytag blue cheese is a big hit throughout
the world.

“I moved to Newton a year after taking a job with The
Vernon Company after graduating from Drake with
a four year degree and working and living in the Des
Moines metro. In Newton, I was able to purchase my
first home and have gotten involved with many organizations. It’s very easy to get involved, make a difference,
and meet great people. Moving here was one of the best
decisions I’ve made and I love how Newton is becoming
one of the best small communities in Central Iowa!”
“I am a young(ish) professional who moved to
Newton 10 years ago from Cedar Rapids. I have
to say I am impressed with the amount of opportunities available for talented younger professionals to become decision makers in this
community. There is a lot of momentum being
built here, and I am proud to be a part of it.”

I came to Newton to be a 7th grade science

been impressed with how Newton has a small

Now is the
time to
build!
By Craig Armstrong, City of Newton Development Specialist
The City of Newton is offering significant incent
objective of jump-starting new home construct
The City is offering $10,000 in cash to anyone purchasing a new home built inside the
city limits in 2014, with no-fee building permits and a guarantee to builders should
their new homes not sell within 12 months.
“We are offering some amazing incentives to build new homes in our city,” said Newton
Mayor Michael Hansen. “With support from our City Council and a great development
staff to implement the plan, we expect to see a tremendous increase in new home starts.”
The criteria for the city’s buyer incentive program is simple and straightforward. The
home must be built on a subdivision or “infill” lot inside the city limits of Newton, and
the improvements must meet or exceed $160,000 in value. The builder is required to
install a radon detection system at the time of construction, and the buyer’s cash incenGetToKnowNewton.com

tive will be available at when the loan is closed and a Certificate of Occupancy is filed.
There are no other restrictions or conditions for the homebuyers’ cash incentive, and
the money may be used for down payment or closing costs, or may simply be received
as a cash bonus. Builders may use the buyer cash incentive as a marketing tool for new
homes constructed on a speculative basis, with the guarantee of interest and utility
costs absorbed by the city if their homes don’t sell within 12 months of completion.
The new home construction incentive programs are an important component in the
city’s branding campaign “Get to Know Newton,” which was inaugurated in February of this year. For more info on the Newton Housing Initiative, visit online at

Grilling safety 101
There’s nothing like outdoor grilling. It’s one of the most popular ways to cook food. But a grill placed too close to
anything that can burn is a fire hazard. Grills can also get very hot, causing burn injuries. Follow these simple tips
and you will be on the way to safe grilling. For more tips, visit online at nfpa.org/education.
General safety tips
•
•
•
•
•
Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors.
The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and tree branches.
Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the grill area.
Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill.
Never leave your grill unattended.
For charcoal grills
• If you use a starter fluid, use only charcoal starter fluid. Never add charcoal fluid or any other flammable liquids to the fire.
• Keep charcoal fluid out of the reach of children and away from heat sources.
• When you are finished grilling, let the coals completely cool before disposing in a metal container.
For propane grills
• Make sure your gas grill lid is
open before lighting.
• Check the gas tank hose for
leaks before using it for the
first time each year. To do
this, apply a light soap and
water solution to the hose. A
propane leak will release bubbles. If your grill has a gas leak
and there is no flame, turn off
the gas tank and grill. If the
leak stops, get the grill serviced by a professional before
using it again. If the leak does
not stop, call the fire department. If you smell gas while
cooking, immediately get away
from the grill and call the fire
department. Do not move grill.
• If the flame goes out, turn
the grill and gas off and wait
at least 15 minutes before relighting it.

Newton’s Future
By Erin Chambers, Director
of Planning and Zoning
and Natalie Umsted,
Management Analyst
Developing Newton’s Future:
Groundwork laid in 2012
There are a lot of things that make
Newton great: the people, location, small-town feel, a creative
spirit, and the ability to dig in and
accomplish great things. Having
weathered the exit of its largest industry (Maytag) and managing the
impacts of the recent economic recession, Newton continues to work
toward resurgence.
Beginning 2012, momentum was
growing and it became clear that
the Newton community was ready
to set the course for a bright future. The Newton’s Future plan is
the articulation of resident desires
and ideas, a strategic approach to
The Get to Know Newton campaign launched
improving and leveraging Newin February, igniting new conversations
ton’s strengths, and a vision for the
about Newton
future. Newton’s Future is not only
the City of Newton’s official policy and strategic approach for future development and growth, but it has also been
designed to be the plan for the community of Newton. It offers a very clear checklist of “things to do” to make Newton a great place to call home.
Many of Newton’s citizens took time out of their busy schedules to be involved in the planning process. Their involvement through participation in public meetings and survey responses has been critical in forming the nuts and
bolts of the plan. Four key themes, which have been formed into Strategic Objectives, surfaced throughout the many
citizen input opportunities. The Strategic Objectives articulated in the plan include: (1) Grow Newton’s Population,
(2) Increase Employment Opportunities, (3) Improve Curb Appeal, and (4) Fill empty buildings and increase local
shopping options.
Implementing Newton’s Future
Newton’s Future has been embraced by the whole community, and many of the “things to do” called for by the
plan are in implementation stage (see list). Newton is working towards marking things off of the checklists found
throughout the plan.
For the FY2013-2014 Budget, the Newton City Council dedicated $250,000 toward the implementation of the comprehensive plan. This allocation of funding shows the commitment that Newton citizens and their representa-
11
tives have for the plan. The Steering Committee, which oversaw the
development of Newton’s Future,
transformed into “Implementing
Newton’s Future,” the citizen advisory group which helped identify
initial projects from the comprehensive plan to tackle.
It is exciting to see the degree to
which Newton’s Future has been
supported by the community. The
implementation of the comprehensive plan has been a collaborative
effort between the City of Newton,
community organizations, businesses, and volunteers. To read
the full comprehensive plan, visit
NewtonGov.org.
Get involved in Newton’s future! Help us update the plan
To maintain the relevancy of Newton’s Future, the plan will be updated once every two years to ensure
that the plan is still addressing the
goals and concerns of residents.
This spring, Newton participated
in the National Citizen Survey, a
scientific study which is used to
measure resident opinion across
eight indicators of community livability: safety, mobility, natural
environment, built environment,
economy, recreation and wellness,
education and enrichment, and
community engagement. The results of this survey will be used to
update the Comprehensive Plan.
If you did not receive a community
survey, but still would like your input to be heard, there will be opportunities throughout July and
August for public input. Follow
the City of Newton on Facebook at
facebook.com/NewtonCity or check
the City’s website at NewtonGov.org
for public input opportunities.
Citizens work with Main Street to create a
vision for the future of downtown Newton
Comprehensive plan projects underway:

costs.
• Downtown Historic District: It is anticipated that in September of 2014, the National Park Service
will notify Newton of the placement of the downtown on the National Register of Historic Places.

provides artists a stipend for the display of their pieces in the community from May-November.

• Sidewalk Infill and Hike/Bike Trail Expansion: The city is working on systematically addressing
gaps in the sidewalk infrastructure around town, and is continuing to expand the hike and bike trail.
• Social Media Workshops; Social Media Lunch and Learns have been hosted to make sure local
organizations and businesses have the technical skills they need to communicate with their customers.
• Volunteer Connection: The United Way of Jasper County has implemented Get Connected, an online tool for connecting volunteers and volunteer opportunities.
• Way-finding Signage: Installation of new way-finding signs is anticipated to happen by October
2014.

nuisance
violations
One of the objectives of Newton’s Future: A Comprehensive Plan is to improve curb appeal
throughout the community. Did you know the city’s Nuisance Codes regulate the following?
• Tall grass and weeds: Un-mowed lawns
with a height of eight inches or more is
a code violation.
• Grass clippings in the street: Blowing
grass clippings into the street is a
code violation.
• Junk, trash, garbage, inoperable vehicles: It is a code violation to deposit or
store junk, trash, garbage, or inoperable vehicles outside in yards.
• Excessive number of garage sales: Garage sales are great, but an excessive number
can negatively impact a neighborhood. Garage
sales occurring for more than five days (consecutively or individually) in a calendar month or on
more than two consecutive weekends are not allowed.
• Parking on the grass: Vehicles parked or stored outside
must be on an all-weather surface.
• Boats and trailers: Boats and trailers don’t need to be on a
hard surface, but cannot be located any closer to the street
than the front of the home.
