(Des Moines, IA) — The union that represents Iowa park rangers is calling on the governor and Legislature to overrule the eviction notices sent to state employees who have been living in state-owned homes in 23 state parks. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources says it’s too expensive to do repairs and maintenance on the housing – so they have been told they have to move out by the end of November. The D-N-R has ended negotiations over the evictions. The union says the move is a violation of the workers’ contracts because the housing subsidy was part of their compensation.
