Coming to a Manteca neighborhood near you: 4 homes on a motor court PERSPECTIVE This is a sample of how “motor courts” are used to cluster four or more detached single family homes to minimize land use and reduce housing costs.
There was a time when “motor court” in California referred to a cluster of small cabins rented to travelers in the 1930s thru the 1960s.
They were the bridge between the old-style downtown hotels and independent motels that eventually morphed into lodging chains as we know them today.
In some quarters such as Beverly Hills motor courts are design statements that provides an area for vehicles to park while connecting house with garbage. Usually pavers in decorative designs and colors are the focal point while landscaping as we know it front lawns and such next to the front of a home is replaced by well-placed shrubs and ivy.
Despite the challenges posed by COVID-19 and the loss of major events such as Tulip Time and other tourism-based activities, the City of Pella continued to push ahead with planning for several major initiatives in the community over the past 12 months.
Mayor Don DeWaard says the city council worked to lay additional groundwork for projects that will start to see movement in 2021, despite revenue hits taken in some areas because of closures and the reduction of travel to the community, which he says were offset by other revenue sources that has the city remaining in strong financial position. A growth in local option sales tax, additional electric revenues, and funding from the CARES Act passed by Congress in the spring and state of Iowa programs have kept the city above water and exceeding budget projections.
