The City of Indianola and Indianola Hometown Pride are working towards Indianola being added as an Iowa Great Places Designation. The Iowa Great Places Designation is a grant program within the Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs, and supports the development of new and existing infrastructure intended to cultivate the unique and authentic qualities of neighborhoods, communities and regions in Iowa. Emmet Konrad with Indianola Hometown Pride tells KNIA News the process of applying is lengthy, but would bring with it a lot of opportunities to the area to help continue to build up community.
