library officials say they'll look at cuts in several places to make up for the funding deficit. that'll include fewer outreach programs and fewer staff members. it'll also mean closing the library at least one day a week. right now it's open seven days a week. for the dozens of people who worked to get the levy on the ballot, the election results are disappointing. 20:29:46 "this is not a win for the people who have to use the library as a lifeline. it's a loss for them, i'm sad for them. i'm also sad for the people of cedar rapids, because this is a quiet economic engine that makes this city stronger." officials haven't nailed down specifics for cuts. they'll start analyzing operational data soon. in waterloo, the grout museum district will receive about 600-thousand dollars each year. that's about 23 dollars extra each year for a home with an assessed value of 150-thousand dollars. for the museum district's five buildings, which

"continuing with job growth and economic development, paving progress, continuing to make streets a priority. we need to get our funding for our flood control and protection system, and we want to make sure our neighborhoods are safe." we also reached out to wienacht, and she wanted wait to comment until the final results were posted.

looking at the district 4 city council seat results. scott olson defeated lisa kuzela with 54 percent of the vote. olson was the incumbent in this race. two dubuque city council women have lost their seats to challengers who are both relatively new to the community. with 73 percent of the votes luis del toro beat out incumbent karla braig. that was for the dubuque ward 2 seat. and jake rios ousted city council member lynn sutton by double the percentage. rios pulled in 68 percent of the vote for the ward 4 spot. an incumbent means people in dubuque want new leadership to address safety in the city. rios is thinking along the same lines. he says he wants the city to pay more attention to find a way to effectively reduce crime throughout the community. "just today my neighbor got robbed so it's kind of like why are those cameras not in our neighborhood even though we've had a stabbing and robberies and what not and so it's common sense things like that.

"we put a lot of regulations in place now called dodd frank. and the problem with

many rules and regulations, you know what it is doing? it's killing the little bank. it's killing the bank in dubuque, so the bank in dubuque doesn't lend. it can't make money so they sell and the big banks get bigger." after leaving loras, kasich headed to alabama, for an event there. hearing aids can give kids who are hard of hearing the chance to develop language skills at close to the same rate as their peers. a university of iowa study shows how vital properly fitted hearing aids are to young children. kcrg tv-9's forrest saunders joins us at the desk this morning. forrest, this was a first of a kind study? that's according to ui officials. researchers said there are very few studies out there on infants and preschoolers with mild to severe hearing loss. this study zeroed in on them and how hearing support can help. when 10 year old julianna mascardo was younger, her parents discovered she had hearing loss.her language development

was falling behind her peers. "we knew that something was wrong because she wasn't annunciating correctly and also she was a little bit loud."those issues with language development were one of the focuses of a 5-year ui study published last month. scientists wanted to know just how beneficial hearing aids and services are for preschool children with mild to severe hearing loss. "a lot of the previous research that had been done, looked at children who were deaf."beth walker assisted in the study. she said some of the key takeaways, may sound obvious, but are important to note. for instance, getting kids properly fit hearing aids equals a better rate of language development. but here's something you might not know. "35 percent of the children were not what we call optimally fit." more than a third. that's a concern for researchers, who say they also found optimally fit hearing aids and early intervention mean kids with hearing loss can catch up or significantly close gaps in language development when compared to peers. check this out. this young girl is trying to recite the pledge of

allegiance. nat years later, the use of optimally fit hearing aid made all the difference. nat the results have been similar for julianna. her language skills are on par with her peers. in fact, if you didn't see her hearing aids, you might never notice she had hearing loss. "we were looking back to the videos that my dad took when i was little and im like whoa, i was loud. the videos now, im like nice and peaceful" the study looked at 317 kids with hearing loss and compared them to 100 kids with what's considered normal hearing. officials say they've renewed their grant for the project and will continue analyzing kids for a few more years. so it's really important kids are fitted the right way with hearing aids.
