Kossuth County Board Lowers Many Land Assessments

The Board of Supervisors of Kossuth County adopts a resolution reducing classifications and assessments on numerous tracts in Harrison and Ledyard Townships as shown in the county auditor's report. The action sets lower values for multiple parcels and adjusts overall drainage district costs to $209,299, with individual tract assessments listed and interest set at 6 percent from adoption. Public action follows related Humboldt drainage matters and a refund warrant for an erroneous 1913 road poll tax.
