But the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act was passed in 1988, making it illegal to refuse to rent or sell property to families because they have children.

Harassment is illegal in all areas protected by Iowa Code Chapter 216. This includes education, employment, public accommodations, credit and housing. Acts of harassment take place every day in schools across the country. Frequently these acts, even if reported to administration, are dismissed as harmless, as "kids will be kids," or as "no big deal."

The Mitchell County Soil and Water Conservation District is applying on behalf of the incorporated community of Carpenter to construct a wastewater collection and treatment system to assist in the environmental cleanup and protection of Deer Creek. IDNR water monitoring of the community tile line has shown consistently elevated levels of fecal coliform bacteria indicating the presence of untreated sewage water. These are obvious health threats to the downstream users and wildlife in Deer Creek and the Cedar River. A new sewer system for the community of Carpenter will eliminate illegal discharges into the creed and be the first step in the overall protection of the stream.

The Iowa County Soil and Water Conservation District is applying on behalf of the unincorporated community of Conroy to construct a wastewater collection and treatment system to assist in the cleanup and protection of the Clear Creek Watershed. Conroy sits at the headwaters of Clear Creek. Monitoring of the watershed has shown consistently high levels of E.coli bacteria and chloride near the upper end of the creek. In addition, toilet paper and fecal material have been observed on numerous occasions. These are obvious health threats to the residents of the watershed. The monitoring of the watershed, coupled with lab analysis, suggest septic inputs are negatively impacting the headwaters of Clear Creek. A new sewer system for the community of Conroy will eliminate illegal discharges into the creek and be the first step in the overall protection of the watershed and the water quality therein.
