The "Purple House" is changing colors again, only this time it's changing back to a normal color.
The owner and tenants of the house at 25th and Indiana have decided to settle citations against them with the city. As part of the settlement, they pleaded guilty to a zoning violation and will paint the house a color that's compatible with the neighborhood.
In addition, the residents must move out to comply with the city ordinance that bans more than two unrelated people from living in a single family home.
The cases will be dropped if the house meets city code within 60 days.
