Tama County adopts HomeBase Iowa resolution, budgets $7,500 for veteran relocation assistance
Summary
Supervisors approved Resolution 1-20-2026B to participate in the HomeBase Iowa program, designating Marshalltown Chamber as an initial point of contact and budgeting $7,500 for moving or rental assistance for veterans.
The board adopted Resolution 1-20-2026B to participate in the HomeBase Iowa initiative and to set local incentives to attract veterans and military families.
The resolution designates the Marshalltown Chamber of Commerce as the initial county point of contact and budgets $7,500 for the program in 2026. The presenter described assistance caps of up to $2,500 for home-purchase assistance or $1,250 for rental/deposit help per household and said the county can return later to increase the fund if demand exceeds the initial allocation. A signing ceremony with state HomeBase Iowa representatives is scheduled next week.
Supervisors supported the measure, noting it ties into ongoing economic development outreach and that front-line local volunteers and partners will help show prospective residents around the county.
