Route Fifty: When Frank Klipsch, the mayor of Davenport, Iowa, visited here earlier this month, his city was dealing with flooding from the Mississippi River.
"Fortunately, it's well handled and I can be here," Klipsch told an audience that was gathered at the offices of a lobbying firm in Georgetown for a panel discussion on infrastructure "resiliency."
The mayor was in town representing not only his city, but also the Mississippi River Cities and Towns Initiative, a group he co-chairs, whose members include mayors from about 80 communities along the 2,350-mile river, in states stretching from Minnesota to Louisiana.
