Please share your thoughts and comments about the development Rottlund Homes of Iowa is proposing for the property at 818 Polk Boulevard.

Links to the City Code sections dealing with Planned Urban Development or ''PUD'' zoning are under the ''Community Pages'' section of the WPNA home page.

Preliminary information shared by Rottlund with the WPNA Board includes an initial plan with 17 detached townhomes. The existing home on the property will be updated and retained.
The development is slated to be association managed, but individually owned.

A starting price of around $225,000 for a unit was mentioned, with add ons and custom work possibly bringing the price to $300-$350,000. Units similar to what they are proposing to build may be seen in the vicinity of 7955-1 Wistful Vista Drive in West Des Moines.

Details on dates the proposal will go before Plan and Zoning will be listed when information is available.
