The weather is doing its thing.

So take a walk. Wander downtown. Take the long way home. Look around a little.

Council Bluffs is pretty good this time of year. 💙

Tiffany has been bringing joy to Council Bluffs for years. This is just one way she does it. 🌹

Every Good Neighbor Day, she volunteers to deliver roses to local nursing homes because she knows firsthand what it means to walk into a room and feel like someone thought of you.

Good Neighbor Day, because this is who we are. 💛

Remember the Midlands Mall? 👀
We heard there's going to be a new reason to make your way back to the old familiar spot this fall and shop!

Farmers Market Council Bluffs is taking the market indoors for monthly off-season markets at the Omni Center from October through April.

Local vendors, makers, food and plenty of things to discover, all in a place a lot of us remember spending a Saturday or Sunday.

New memories in a familiar place. 💙

🏡 What could the future of Council Bluffs look like — and how do we grow while holding onto what people already love about our community?

Join Peggie Sweet today at 7:50 AM AND 5:20 PM for , sponsored by the Iowa West Foundation, as she visits with Lindsay Toussant, Growing CB Consultant, about the Growing CB initiative and the work happening to help shape the future of Council Bluffs.

There is A LOT happening in Council Bluffs! Growing CB is a collaborative effort spearheaded by the Iowa West Foundation, City of Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, Council Bluffs Area Chamber of Commerce and Advance Southwest Iowa Corporation, with a focus on both population and economic growth.

Council Bluffs hasn't been growing at the same pace as the rest of the metro, and Growing CB is looking at ways to change that — while also maintaining the character and integrity of the community that people who live here already know and love.

We also talk about how Growing CB differs from the Elevate CB Comprehensive Plan, and how the two fit into the bigger picture of what's ahead for Council Bluffs.

And YOU will have opportunities to be part of the conversation! Follow the Growing CB page for updates and watch for upcoming community events where everyone will have a chance to get involved.

Have questions or want to connect with Lindsay? You can also reach her at [email protected].

There's a lot happening now — and a lot to look forward to as we think about what Council Bluffs can become for the people who live here today and those who may call it home in the future.
