If you follow City Hall, here's one to know about. The Dispatch Argus has the proposed changes to how Davenport recruits its city administrators, and they're worth a read if you care how the city picks its top administrator.
Separately, Wednesday's Veterans Day Parade in downtown Davenport was canceled, KWQC reported that morning, calling it a developing story. The report gave no reason. The city had asked residents to come early, since temporary street closures were to affect travel through downtown.
The canceled parade was set to loop through downtown to the courthouse
