WHEREAS, The City of Monticello recently purchased the property located at 541 North Chestnut Street, same being described by the following Tax Parcel ID: 0221432002, and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Monticello, Iowa does hereby direct the City Clerk to inform the County Treasurer of the decision of the City Council to request the abatement of the taxes accrued and accruing on the above-described tax parcel consistent with §445.63 of the Iowa Code.
