Judge lifts injunction on North Liberty credit union project
A judge lifted a temporary injunction stopping North Liberty from buying land for a University of Iowa Community Credit Union building. The 64 acre deal near I-380, funded by urban renewal bonds, included a 24 acre sale to the credit union for $1 and a $20 million office plan. Residents questioned the deal and whether 380 Development Group was a city-controlled sham, while the city defended it as independent economic development.
