On January 29, 2010, the United States District Court for Southern District of Iowa entered a consent order resolving litigation brought by the United States Department of Justice involving the following apartments and condominiums:
Jersey Ridge Manor
&
Kimberly Ridge Manor
The lawsuit alleges that the ground floor units and the common use areas (e.g., sidewalks, parking areas, etc.) at these apartments are not accessible to individuals with disabilities. As part of the Consent Order, the Defendants have agreed to retrofit the ground floor units and the common use areas at these complexes to comply with the Fair Housing Act.
The Consent Order also establishes a Settlement Fund to compensate persons who have been harmed as a result of this discrimination at any of the above-named complexes. You or members of your family may be qualified to recover from the Settlement Fund if you or members of your family:
If you wish to make a claim for discrimination on the basis of disability, or if you have any information about persons who may have such a claim, please contact the United States Department of Justice at 1-800-896-7743. You may also write to:
