ATTORNEY'S OPINION
I, LARRY R. CURTIS, hereby state that I am an attorney at law, duly admitted to the practice of
law in the State of Iowa, and a member of the firm of Pasley and Singer Law Firm, L. L. P., with offices
at 323 Sixth Street, Ames, Story County, Iowa. I further state that I have examined the abstract of title
to the following described real estate:
All that part of the Southwest Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of the Southwest
Quarter, lying South of the Skunk River, and all that part of the Northwest Quarter of the
Southwest Quarter of the Southwest Quarter, lying North of the county road, as formerly
located, all in Section 23, Township 84 North, Range 24 West of the 5th P.M., Story
County, Iowa, all together being more particularly described as follows: Beginning at the
Northwest Corner of Lot 9 in Purvis Subdivision in the East Half of the Southwest
Quarter of said Section 23, said point being in the centerline of West Riverside Road, as
formerly located; thence following said former centerline N88°05'12"W, 209.54 feet to
the beginning of a curve tangent to said line; thence westerly and southwesterly, 185.98
feet along the curve concave to the south, having a radius of 260.43 feet, a central angle
of 40°54'59" and being subtended by a chord which bears S71°27'18"W, 182.05 feet;
thence S50059'48'W, 244.95 feet, tangent to said curve; thence departing said former
centerline N51°09'01"W, 99.70 feet to the West line of said Section 23; thence
N00010'48"E, 681.65 feet along said line to the centerline of the Skunk River, as
established by prior survey; thence following said line N84024'59"E, 0.36 feet; thence
S85010'31"E, 444.00 feet; thence S71°31'08"E, 221.92 feet to the East line of said
Southwest Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of the Southwest Quarter; thence
S00042'55"W, 431.50 feet along said line to the point of beginning, containing 8.42
acres, which includes 1.08 acres of existing public right of way;
from the date of the Root of Title thereof, down to and including the 17th day of October, 2014, as last
certified by Abstract and Title Services of Story County.
Based upon the information within said abstract of title, it is my opinion that the fee simple title to
the property described above is in DEAN M. ROOSA and CAROL JACOBS PECK, husband and wife,
and said real estate is free from encumbrances.
The property is subject to easements and restrictions of record and the general zoning
ordinances of County of Story, Iowa.
