The Pella City Council is moving forward with a new subdivision in the Bos Landen Neighborhood.

They approved a development agreement with Bos Ridge, LLC, for 45 new homes in that area. City of Pella Assistant City Administrator Corey Goodenow tells KNIA/KRLS News the new homes are part of a bigger initiative for the council in adding new homes to the community.

Goodenow says the agreement is part of the larger Southwest Urban Renewal Area, which provides incentives to developers through tax increment financing to build the infrastructure required for new housing.
