Board members spent an extended portion of the meeting on Jackson Pointe, an affordable‑housing property with an outstanding loan and complex ownership history. Supervisors reported the limited partnership that once held the building appears to have dissolved without clear notice to Iowa Finance Authority. County appointees to the related Progressive Housing Corp said they do not believe the county currently has clear authority to assume ownership or enter into contracts for management.

Concerns included a reported $860,000 outstanding debt, missing management records, the risk of utility shutoffs if bills are unpaid, and five units considered "unrentable" by current management. Several supervisors said they were reluctant to step into operational or financial responsibility without counsel and a clearer title path; one management company (KeyWay) had indicated they would seek compensation of about $186,000 to continue operating in the near term.

The board agreed to retain outside counsel with specialized experience in housing and tax‑sale procedures and to hold a Wednesday meeting with the attorney on Zoom to determine who has legal authority to sign contracts, whether the county can lawfully expend funds on private property and what options exist to protect tenants (e.g., transfer to another manager or staged transition). No final action to assume management was taken at the meeting.
