Summary

After a staff update that 507 S. Linn Street lacked a septic or city connection, the board voted to send a letter to the City of Anamosa seeking records and clarification; motion by Denny Coon was approved unanimously.

County staff reported that 507 S. Linn Street is in violation for not having a septic system; staff checked with the City of Anamosa and found no record of the property connecting to city sewer. Julia Steere read the written update from Matt Dobler and the board voted to send a letter to the City of Anamosa to request information.

The minutes state: "Motion made by Denny that a letter will be sent to the City of Anamosa regarding 507 S. Linn Street, seconded by Dr. Deb, all aye." The board did not record a specific enforcement deadline for this action in the minutes; it is framed as a records inquiry to the city, not immediate enforcement against the property owner.
