Adam Joseph Clark, 21, of Moravia was arrested on Friday, Oct. 30 by the Appanoose County Sheriff’s Office, according to a press release issued by the office on Monday.

Clark is charged with distribution of a Schedule I controlled substance to a person under age 18, a class B felony and sexual abuse in the third degree, a class C felony.

Clark is accused of allegedly trading marijuana with a 14-year-old female in exchange for a sex act in the Moravia area. The alleged incident took place during the month of August 2009 and was reported on Oct. 21, 2009.

This week the Iowegian wants readers to think about the recent decision by the Centerville Municipal Waterworks Board of Directors to increase the fee for late payment of water bills. In a story published in Wednesday's Ad Express, board members announced a 10 percent late fee after two days late, a $50 red tag fee for accounts unpaid after seven days late and a $25 shut off fee, water service terminated after two weeks late. The board said the decision to increase the fees associated with late payment is to encourage customers to pay their bills on time. So, the question this week is, "Are these fees too much to ask for?"

A. Yes, they are.
B. No, they are not.
C. I'm not affected so I don't care.
