UI Grants Renewal Rate Deal To Balfour Beatty Housing Firm
University of Iowa officials forgo a $75 000 payment to Balfour Beatty to extend a lower renewal rate to all Aspire tenants raising graduate housing costs. The gesture follows a 41 year lease and 99.8 percent occupancy at Aspire with tenants facing a two year total rent rise of 6.2 to 9 percent. The plan lacks a firm count of eligible tenants and critics call it a poor use of university funds.
