City of Norwalk Notice of
Pest Management Program
The City of Norwalk implements an integrated pest
management program for all City-owned green space.
This program includes aerating, dethatching,
mowing, trimming, mulching and spraying for pests.
Spraying for pests includes fertilization, pre-
emergent crabgrass control, post & pre-emergent
weed control, and weed control along all fence lines
and buildings. Any resident that has property that
is adjacent to City property and wishes to be notified
24 hours in advance of any pest control should contact
Joseph Ballard at jballard@norwalk.iowa.gov or call
515-981-9527.
All individuals or groups that might use City
grounds for any function should watch for “keep off
chemically treated” signs. These signs are placed on
treated green space for 24 hours after treatment. If
you see these signs you should stay off that particular
green space until the signs are removed.
We take this task seriously and have a commitment
to keep our environment safe. The City has one
licensed pest treatment employee. Pest treatment is
always our last line of defense and we use it sparingly
in our integrated pest management program.

OBITUARY
ANNE
Anne Mary Sullivan,
54, formerly of Norwalk,
died April 28th, 2019 at
Osage Municipal Hos-
pital, following a cour-
ageous battle with ALS.
She was born on July
22nd, 1964 in Charles
City, the daughter of
Mark and Helen
Sullivan.
Anne graduated from
Osage High School in
1982. She went on to earn
an Associate of Arts (AA)
degree from North Iowa
Area Community College
(NIACC), a Bachelor of
Arts (BA) from the
University of Northern
Iowa (UNI), Masters of
Science (MS) degree from
Iowa State University,
and Educational Special-
ist (Ed.S.) and Doctorate
in School Administration
(Ed.D.) degrees from
Drake University.
Anne started her
career in education as an
elementary teacher in
both the Greene and
West Des Moines school
districts in the 19903.
She served as an
elementary principal at
both Martensdale-St.
Mary’s and Norwalk
schools where she later
became superintendent.
Anne went on to become
the associate super-
intendent at Ankeny
Community Schools
before taking a position at
Area Education Agency
267 as the assistant chief
administrator. In 2013,
she became the chief of
human resources with the
Des Moines Public
Schools. In addition,
Anne served as an
adjunct professor at
various institutions of
higher education in-
cluding the University of
Iowa, Drake, and Viterbo.
A fierce advocate for
Iowa’s students, Anne
served on a number of
boards and professional
committees and assoc-
iations including the
Iowa Board of Edu-
cational Examiners
(former chair), School
Administrators of Iowa,
Iowa Association of
School Personnel Admin-
istrators, Iowa Assoc-
iation of School Boards,
and American Assoc-
iation of School Admin-
istrators. Anne received
the Outstanding Alumni
award from both Osage
Community School
District and NIACC.
Anne’s work in school
leadership is recognized
ULLIVAN
both statewide and
nationally. Perhaps her
greatest gift to the
profession was mentor-
ing young leaders and
encouraging and ele-
. vating those who she felt
had the highest potential
to serve on behalf of
Iowa’s children. Those
who had this honor will
remember her most for
her integrity, wisdom,
drive, and unparalleled
work ethic. The impact
that Anne had on
education and the
careers of others in the
state of Iowa will
reverberate for many
generations. Her mantra
was “truly doing what
was best for students in
word and action”.
Despite her many
professional accomplish-
ments, Anne’s greatest
blessings were her
daughters, Madison and
Kaitlin. Her love for her
girls and dreams for their
future were always at the
forefront of her life. Her
greatest memories include
traveling together and
watching them grow into
the beautiful, strong young
women they are today.
Anne had many close
friends who cherished
her. If you were in Anne’s
circle, you enjoyed her
dry sense of humor, love
of great, wine and travel,
and eternal loyalty. Anne
was the once—in-a-
lifetime friend that
everyone deserves. She
leaves behind a strong,
protective group of
friends who will honor
her memory by con-
tinuing to work on behalf
of others and rallying
around her daughters.
Anne was preceded in
death by her parents,
Mark and Helen Sullivan.
Left to cherish her
memory are her daugh-
ters, Madison (Des
Moines) and Kaitlin (Iowa
City) Laing; special friend,
Michael. Gillen; sister,
Madonna (Greg) Kola-
kowski, New York, NY;
brothers, Tim (Jennifer)
Sullivan, Osage; and
Kevin (Pilar) Sullivan, ,
Farmington, MN; and
youngest sister Colleen
(Josh) Byrnes, Osage, who
lovingly served as her
caretaker in the final
1 months of her life. Anne
will also be remembered
by her ten nieces and
nephews including Chloe
Kolakowski; Emily,
Claire, and Joe Sullivan; ‘
Ryan, Tyler and Alicia
Sullivan; and Alex, Nolan,
and Scarlett Byrnes.
A Celebration of Life in
Anne’s honor was held
May 1st at McLaren’s
Resthaven Chapel and
Mortuary in West Des
Moines. A memorial fund
has been established in
the family’s name with
proceeds to benefit the
national ALS Association.
