Polk county boards move to recover overdue personal taxes from residents who left the state. A contract with B C Worthington will guide a thousand dollar card index and a commission share system. The plan targets millions in back taxes and could reduce county debt. It mentions Hawkeye club members in California and broad tax enforcement across states and Canada.
