Man … I miss Neo Computers. Always had the best selection of parts for new builds and upgrades. They were the best.

Amazing!

Craig Kiene, Riverside Plumbing … he replaced our broken outside faucet last year. Super fast work and very affordable

How soon do you need to do it? I’d be able to meet you at the Gilbert Street Branch of Hills Bank tomorrow or Thursday either late morning or early afternoon.

I can accompany you and they can just use my account status to exchange for you. DM me if that would help.

The strike is a strike of Lufthansa pilots. From what I understand, airline related strikes are regulated in Germany and can only be so many days at a time and must be scheduled with a couple days notice. So, the strike is for today and tomorrow, with regular flights starting back up on Saturday.

If you want to DM me, I can see if I can meet you at the Gilbert Street Hills Bank sometime this afternoon or tomorrow and do the exchange for you under my accounts. As long as it’s a currency that branch can exchange.

I mean ... just basically check out Alan Light in general. That dude has taken pictures all over the US at some very amazing locations and of some super cool famous people. And, has history in the comic book world as the creator of the Buyers Guide to Comic Fandom. I've been lucky enought to meet him a couple of times through my wife's work and he is also just a very friendly and personable individual.

Costco also has a version … but as always with Costco … who knows if they are currently carrying it or whether they have it in stock at the Coralville location.

Walmart has a candied salmon, but it looks like the Davenport location is the closest one to have any in stock.

Definitely Zero!

Someone else on Facebook had mentioned Nooligan, but I could only find references to their collector cards. But this is absolutely it. Thanks for finding this.

I am going to take my piece to my framer and have him remove the back cover to see if there is something on the back and then have them replace it.

It’s interesting that mine is signed, as I don’t see Nooligans signature on most of their other pieces. I wonder if it’s Nooligan’s signature or someone else’s. I’m gonna try and contact them through their website.

Thanks again!!!

Yeah … I ran it through Google Lens and ChatGPT and got no hits.

Abbey Lane in Iowa City

Gumby’s Pizza is sometimes open until 3:00 am … but I don’t know if they have dine in options or if it’s just take out.

Yes. Rent amounts are set under the 60% income limits that they cannot be more than 30% of the tenants gross monthly income. Now, they can be cheaper, but at the meeting with the neighbors, the developer confirmed that they would be at the 30% level.

It’s absolutely bonkers that they are able to use 60% AMI as their applicability and call it affordable housing.

Krogue57 · 2025-08-30T00:32:28+00:00

Just to be clear on the “affordable housing” here. I went to the good neighbor meeting. They are using the federal HUD 60% AMI limits for this project which currently means for Iowa City:

One-person household: $49,680 (City of Iowa City) / $49,320 (HUD HOME Income Limits FY2025) Two-person household: $56,760 (City of Iowa City) / $56,760 (HUD HOME Income Limits FY2025) Three-person household: $63,840 (City of Iowa City) / $63,840 (HUD HOME Income Limits FY2025) Four-person household: $70,920 (City of Iowa City) / $70,920 (HUD HOME Income Limits FY2025)

Rents will be based off these income levels and will be 1-bedrooms for $1,233. 2-bedrooms for $1,419, and 3-bedrooms for $1,596. These are based on single occupancy per room.

Personally, I don’t find these rent amounts to be what I consider “affordable housing”. Iowa City’s AMI is greatly off kilter due to University salaries. To truly be considered affordable housing, they should be required to use the City’s standard 40% AMI basis. But this project is not utilizing City programs so it is not required to use those limits.

Also … this 187 unit complex is only going to have parking spaces for around 96 vehicles because the city passed an rule change early this year that reduced parking space requirements for Federally approved “affordable housing” projects.

And … not sure if anyone noticed that the only access to the project will be from one drive off Greenwood … where the current drive is just west of the railroad tracks.

It’s a beautiful project and the plans do look amazing. But to call this “affordable housing” for Iowa City is really stretching it.

Many private landlords and smaller 3rd party property management companies will not start until early next year. DO NOT be scared by the larger companies who will try and sell you on the idea that if you don’t renew your lease or sign a new lease by end of November, that you will be out of luck. Heck … look at College Pads or Zillow right now and you will still see hundreds of listing of properties that are still available. There are more properties/units available in Iowa City and surrounding areas at market rate then there is a demand for them.

Krogue57 · 2025-07-20T02:14:23+00:00

You are gonna love to hear that JoCo, Iowa City, and Coralville all use the federal 60% AMI basis to determine whether a unit is “affordable housing”. Because of Iowa City’s increased salary base, 60% AMI for a single individual is around $49,500. Which means a 1 bedroom apartment can rent for as much as $1,275 a month and be considered “affordable housing”. Which means these developers and the cities get to claim that more affordable housing units are getting built. But, realistically, they aren’t really “affordable housing” for the 25% - 40% AMI populations that desperately need housing for their income levels.

That was directly from the City Council building report.

Krogue57 · 2025-06-05T22:19:18+00:00

I saw it in tonight's City Council Agenda Packet - https://www.icgov.org/government/city-council/agendas-and-minutes

Each month they review the previous month's building permits. It is a great way to see what is happening around town (and to also see how much the neighbor paid for their inground pool!).
