The Honorable F. Paul Goodland, Mayor,
And Members of the City Council
Of The City of Ames, Iowa
In Re: Disposal of Unwanted Land - White Oak Subdivision
Dear Mayor Goodland and Council Members:
You may recall your decision to dispose of a strip .of land in the
Oakwood Subdivision so the City would not be responsible for mainte-
,
nance. The strip was subdivided into parcels to be deeded to owners of
abutting lots in Oakwood. First, Addition. On January 19, a resolution
proposing the .conveyance of those parcels and setting a date of hearing
for February 2' was adopted. The hearing was held February 2nd and the
resolution to authorize the deeds was adopted. However, .the notice of
hearing that should have been published before January 29, 1.988, was
not.
To make a good record for future title examiners, .I ask that you repeat
the legal process for disposition of these parcels.
With this is a resolution to be adopted August 23 to propose the convey-
ance and directing notice of hearing for September 13. Also enclosed
are:
a. the resolution to finally authorize the deeds, to. be adopted
September 13,
b. the 'form of notice to be published once; no sooner than August 25
and not later than September 8, and
C. a sample form of deed.
The willingness of the proposed grantees to accept the land is document-
ed. After the resolution of September 13, the executed deeds, the
resolutions and proof . of publication of the notice will be recorded,
then the recorded-deeds mailed to the grantees: -
Respectfully submitted,
John R. Klaus �— -
