The Magistrate deferred sentencing for 30 days, inplying that there would be no fine if the tree were removed within that time. Mr. Lee failed to appear at the scheduled hearing on re oval and his $30.00 bond was forfeited. In mid-April, I sent a letter to Mr. Lee and stated that the City would remove the tree and assess his property in accordance with Section 364.12, Iowa Code (1975) , if the tree was not removed by April 19, 1977. After Mr. Lee refused to accept the letter, Tan Schixman, an Assistant City Attorney intern, called Mr. Lee and related to him the contents of the letter. Mr. Lee still expressed an unwill- ingness to remove the tree. The City Forester then contacted tree services for bids. Arrange- ments were made for the tree reroval at a cost of $30.00. The attached resolution will provide for the assessment of cost to the property at issue.
