Branstad inauguration will be trimmed down

Governor-elect Terry Branstad's inauguration is coming up next week, and it won't be an elaborate affair full of pomp and circumstance. It will be more of a cost-conscious celebration with the focus remaining on government, as Branstad puts it. The two-day event on the 13th and 14th will cost about $300,000, but taxpayers aren't footing the bill. It's paid for by donations to the inaugural committee.
