Bremer County abates taxes for parcel deeded to City of Janesville
Summary
The board adopted RESOLUTION NO. 24‑42 directing the Treasurer to strike taxes, interest and costs for parcel 0935455016 after the record shows the parcel was deeded to the City of Janesville on or about July 1, 2022.
The Bremer County Board of Supervisors on June 11 adopted RESOLUTION NO. 24‑42 directing the Treasurer to abate and strike from the tax books the regular taxes, interest and costs for parcel 0935455016 after the minutes state the parcel was deeded to the City of Janesville on or about July 1, 2022.
The resolution invokes Iowa Code section 445.63 as the authority for striking taxes when a parcel has been deeded to a governing body that has refused to pay prior taxes. The minutes record an itemized schedule under the resolution for Tax Year 2022; the line items as written in the record are inconsistent in formatting. The minutes list the parcel and the following items in the table: an entry labeled "Tax" showing the characters "38000", and smaller line entries for interest and fees that are recorded as $15.00 and $1.00 respectively, with a separate recorded total of $20.00 in the minutes. Because the minutes’ table formatting is inconsistent, the board record should be consulted for definitive accounting.
The action was recorded as passed and adopted by the board and the minutes note Treasurer Adam Hoffman exited the meeting after the item. The board did not record dissent on the resolution in the minutes.
Residents seeking details or corrections to the tax record should contact the Bremer County Treasurer’s office or review the full resolution text available in the county’s official records.
