Offender law enforcement varies by Iowa county
Iowa counties differ in applying a 2000 foot living restriction for sex offenders near schools and child care centers. Polk County follows the letter of the law. Black Hawk County aims to apply it to new and older centers, hoping to reflect the legislature's intent to protect children. The loophole stems from grandfathering offenders already living near such centers, leaving interpretation to each county pending legislative action.
