Petition of Voelker Realty Co. of- fering $400.00 in full of settlement for improvement of Grandview Ave- nue assessed against Lot 16, Grand- view Heights Add. There was an old assessment of $278.48 levied in 1912 which was not paid; for this assessment a sale to the City was made in 1921 for the above amount plus $66.83 interest and 40 cents cost. On Sept. 17th, 1920, this lot was again assessed for the new im- provement of Grandview Avenue in the sum of $710.05. They protested the assessment and offered to pay $400.00 providing the former assess- ment would be cancelled. Subse- quently a reduction was granted to $497.04; they still deemed this exces- sive and a further reduction was granted to the sum of $400.00. If they were notified of this last reduc- tion they must have overlooked the same and neglested to ascertain whether it included the other assess- ments or not. Through some mis- take the property was sold to the City on Jan. 3rd, 1922 for the amount of $497.04 tax plus $56.51 interest and costs, though the assessment roll showed as corrected to be $400.00. In order to clear up this matter they renew the offer of $400.00 plus the regular rate of in- terest from date of assessment. Councilman Meuser moved that the Council accept this offer and the Treasurer be instructed to accept $400.00 in full of all assessments against Lot 16, Grandview Heights Add., with interest at 6% from Sept. 17th, 1920.
