Axios Des Moines: Plans to build a tiny home village in Des Moines are still in the works despite this week’s delay before the City Council, the nonprofit behind the project says. Joppa, a nonprofit that’s been working on the project for years, appeared to have withdrawn its offer to purchase property for the 50-home development, according to city documents released Monday. Joppa CEO Joe Stevens denied that his group withdrew the offer. The nonprofit intended for the hearing to simply be delayed rather than dismissed, Stevens told Axios. A project will happen even if finding a new location is necessary, he said.
