The Cass County Board of Supervisors met 8:30-a.m., Wednesday, in a normal weekly session.  Auditor Dale Sunderman reports the Board approved the application for a Renewal Class C Beer Permit and Sunday Sales Privilege effective 10/18/2018, for the 21st Century Cooperative in Massena.

County Weed Commissioner Dennis Vogl reviewed current activity.  He reported there were 16 complaints filed this season.  Fourteen were resolved without using certified notice process.

Dale Sunderman reported that he and Board Chair Gaylord Schelling contacted Pipeline Foods on Monday, and informed them that the Code of Iowa does not permit the County to reduce existing assessment as had been requested (with regard to their planned purchase of the ADM Elevator, north of Atlantic).  Sunderman said a tax exemption/abatement is available only on an increase in valuation/assessment.

Representatives of Pipeline Foods were not in attendance at Wednesday’s meeting.
