Residents oppose Anamosa street plan in court filing

Jones county district court saw seven Anamosa residents sue the City of Anamosa to block proposed street improvements and remove six streets from the plan. Plaintiffs seek a permanent injunction and argue objections raised at a June hearing were ignored. A separate quieting of title suit in Anamosa and Monticello tied to the Nagel estate favored the plaintiffs, with no inheritance tax due. Inmates at the Anamosa reformatory faced habeas corpus actions and concurrent five year sentences for escape and larceny. A title suit favored the plaintiffs, involving property in Wyoming.
