Emmons, Auditor of Story County, Iowa, acting pursuant to sections 354.13 and 354.16 of the Code of Iowa (1993), do hereby certify as follows: The tract of real estate shown and described on the attached subdivision plat prepared and certified by Robert L. Stumbo, Jr., a registered land surveyor, was subdivided by the proprietor thereof in violation of section 354.6 of the Code of Iowa (1993). On October 27, 1992, I mailed to the current proprietors of said tract a notice in which I demanded that said proprietors record a subdivision plat of said tract within 30 days as required by Chapter 354 of the Code of Iowa (1993). A copy of said notice is attached to and made a part of this certificate. I have caused said attached subdivision plat to be made and recorded by reason of the failure of said proprietors to do so. Said subdivision plat was prepared for assessment and taxation purposes and does not constitute a dedication or impose any liability upon the state or any governmental agency. No search was made at the time of recording said subdivision plat to determine the existence of any liens, mortgages, delin- quent taxes or special assessments; no search was made, other than the records of the auditor's office, to establish title to the property within the subdivision plat; and the lots within the subdivision plat are subject individually to the regulations and ordinances of the City of Ames, Iowa. A certified copy of the resolution of the City Council of Ames, Iowa, approving said subdivision plat is recorded with this certificate.
