Hunter01/29/26A long-awaited meeting between Havenpark Communities, the owners of mobile home parks in the area, and two Johnson County supervisors took place in Iowa City this week.
The Gazette reports the meeting was the result of months of letters back and forth between the supervisors and Havenpark, attempting to plan a discussion to address mobile home park resident concerns over water quality and rent increases.
All parties involved said the meeting was constructive and hopefully the first of other meetings to come.
The supervisors got involved last May, at the request of the Johnson County Affordable Housing Coalition, which works with Johnson County Residents United (JCRU).
Rent increases of up to 50 percent and a reduction in services has also been a concern.
