Bank agrees to take county drainage certificates at par
The Emmet county board of supervisors struck a deal with Iowa Savings Bank to convert all drainage improvement certificates held by the county in 1903 to cash at par. Certificates bear six percent interest and serve landowners who pay in ten yearly installments. The arrangement eases contractor bidding and saves districts money, while allowing landowners to choose cash or installments. Estherville Enterprise.
