The Bremer County Board of Supervisors authorized the chair to sign a notice of termination for a county farm tenancy and discussed plans to rebid the lease next year.

The Chair explained the action is routine practice under Iowa Code and serves as formal notification to tenants because the county intends to rebid the lease: “So we're giving people notification that we're gonna terminate their lease next March after this season,” the Chair said.
