Hiawatha residents sue over proposed group home use
Fifty Hiawatha residents file in Linn District Court for a declaratory judgment on whether using 90 14th Ave as a residence for six mentally retarded boys with two staff violates single family zoning. The petition targets owner Helen Hall and seeks damages if covenants and ordinances are violated, while Mental Health Services argues the home would operate as a single housekeeping unit like a foster home.
