  1  7 BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF IOWA: 
  1  8 
  1  9    Section 1.  Section 331.341, subsection 4, Code 1997, is
  1 10 amended to read as follows:
  1 11    4.  If the contract price for a public improvement is five
  1 12 fifteen thousand dollars or more, the board shall require a
  1 13 contractor's bond in accordance with chapter 573.
  1 14    Sec. 2.  Section 447.9, Code Supplement 1997, is amended by
  1 15 adding the following new unnumbered paragraph:
  1 16    NEW UNNUMBERED PARAGRAPH.  The county in which the parcel
  1 17 is located has the right of redemption for owner-occupied
  1 18 residential parcels as provided in this paragraph.  If a
  1 19 person is unable to contribute to the public revenue, the
  1 20 person may file a petition, duly sworn to, with the board of
  1 21 supervisors, stating that fact and giving a statement of
  1 22 parcels, as defined in section 445.1, owned or possessed by
  1 23 the petitioner, and other information as the board may
  1 24 require.  The board of supervisors may order the county
  1 25 auditor to redeem a parcel owned or possessed by the
  1 26 petitioner from the holder of a certificate of purchase upon
  1 27 payment by the county to the certificate holder of the amount
  1 28 necessary to redeem under section 447.1.  Each of the tax-
  1 29 levying and tax-certifying bodies having any interest in the
  1 30 taxes shall be charged with the total amount due the tax-
  1 31 levying or tax-certifying body as its just share of the
  1 32 purchase price, and that amount shall be deducted from the
  1 33 next month's disbursement made by the county to the tax-
  1 34 levying or tax-certifying body.  Interest paid by the county
  1 35 to the certificate holder pursuant to section 447.1 shall be
  2  1 paid solely by the county and shall not be charged against the
  2  2 other tax-levying and tax-certifying bodies.  Taxes charged
  2  3 and paid by the tax-levying or tax-certifying body in this
  2  4 manner shall be treated as suspended taxes pursuant to
  2  5 sections 427.8 through 427.12.  Notwithstanding section
  2  6 447.14, a county may redeem pursuant to this paragraph for tax
  2  7 sales held before, on, or after July 1, 1998.  A county may
  2  8 limit the number of times a taxpayer may file a petition for
  2  9 assistance under this paragraph.
