Longtime Cedar Rapids Assessor Hails From 1915 Service
Arthur Mott retires after 33 years in Cedar Rapids city assessor’s office. He began in 1915 under Chief Assessor Bom Feiereisen and rose to chief deputy under Jim Scolaro. Mott recalls early public friction, 1938 homestead tax credit easing relations, and modernization from hand books to detailed cards. He plans lighter work, golf with successor, and family life while avoiding Iowa winters.
