IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — University of Iowa football coach Kirk Ferentz and his wife have won another round in a neighborhood fight. The Iowa City Press-Citizen reports that a judge’s ruling issued Wednesday affirms the Ferentzes do not owe neighbors around $9,600 for road maintenance and don’t have to remove landscaping that affords them privacy from intrusive football fans.
A homeowners association set up by the neighbors sued the Ferentzes in March 2016, accusing they’d breached a contract and committed trespass. A judge ruled in September 2017 that the Ferentzes weren’t required to join the association. The Iowa Supreme Court declined to hear the neighbors’ appeal, setting up what became a nonjury trial on Feb. 12-13 to hear the remaining claims.
The legal dispute is scheduled to continue in court in June next year on another breach-of-contract claim against Kirk and Mary Ferentz.

The Walnut City Council, Thursday evening, amended the dates for the Antique Fall Festival. City Clerk Shannon Wood said the Festival will take place Sept. 21st & 22nd, instead of the previously announced dates of Sept.14th & 15th. The Council, Thursday, approved a list of streets that will be temporarily closed.
Walnut is a pass through city for this year’s RAGBRAI, and Wood said planning is just getting underway. She said there was a meeting this past Tuesday, with committees being set-up for vendors, public relations and so on. Officials will conduct a “dry run” of the course on June 2nd, and then the City will approve what streets will be shut-down for the event.
And, the Parks Department reported on preparations for Little League at the City Parks this summer. Wood said all the Little League games from AHSTW will be played there this summer. Crews have been working hard on making the parks….which she says haven’t been used a whole lot these past few years…ready for action.
The Council also approved a Budget Amendment for the FY 2018-19 Budget, after a Public Hearing.
