A unique townhouse project on Franklin Street can now begin after the Pella City Council adopted a planned unit development zoning ordinance.

City Administrator Mike Nardini tells KNIA/KRLS News the project was proposed on five lots between 402 and 410 Franklin, and includes many unique features, and will adhere to high standards to fit near the downtown area.

Overall, he says the city council as a whole is supportive of numerous housing projects, and will continue to find ways to expand the number of units available. Hear more about this week’s Pella City Council meeting on today’s Let’s Talk Pella.
