Iowa City will purchase a trio of three-bedroom townhomes, adding larger, more family-oriented housing units to the city-owned and managed affordable housing stock.

The Iowa City Housing Authority will purchase the townhomes for approximately $927,000 in Aspen Court, a new development off of Forevergreen Road and east of Interstate 380 in North Liberty.

The Iowa City City Council approved the purchase by a 6-0 vote, with Councilor Shawn Harmsen absent.
