, and KRUPP PLACE 2 CO-OP, INC., Plaintiffs-Appellees, vs. BOARD OF REVIEW OF JASPER COUNTY, IOWA, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________________________________________________ Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Jasper County, Dale B. Hagen, Judge.
Appeal from the district court ruling that plaintiffs" rental properties should be classified as residential instead of commercial. AFFIRMED.
Steve Johnson, County Attorney, and Michael Jacobsen, Assistant County Attorney, Newton, for appellant. James Nervig of Brick Gentry, P.C., West Des Moines, and Craig Hastings of Hastings & Gartin, L.L.P., Ames, for appellees.
Considered by Sackett, C.J., Vaitheswaran and Danilson, JJ.
SACKETT, C.J. The Jasper County Board of Review (Board) appeals from the district court"s ruling on the plaintiffs" combined motions that concluded "the plaintiffs" rental properties should be classified as residential multiple housing
cooperatives" under Iowa Code chapter 499A (2007). We affirm. BACKGROUND. The plaintiffs are two multiple housing cooperatives
organized in November of 2007 under Iowa Code chapter 499A. In March of 2008 the Jasper County Assessor notified the plaintiffs of the 2008 property tax assessment, classifying the properties as commercial. In May, plaintiffs filed an objection, contending the properties were misclassified as commercial, but should properly be classified as residential under Iowa Code section 441.21(11). The Board adjusted the value of the properties because it determined they were assessed for more than the market value, but maintained the properties" classification as commercial. In June, plaintiffs filed a petition on appeal in district court, seeking to have the properties reclassified as residential. The parties filed a joint stipulation of undisputed material facts, which the district court adopted as its findings of fact in its February of 2009 ruling on appeal. The court concluded the plaintiffs
complied with the requirements of Iowa Code chapter 499A in creating the cooperatives. "However, . . . although they did comply with the letter of the law in forming their cooperatives, they did not abide by the "spirit of the law" and the corporate entities shall be disregarded." Many of the conclusions of the court cited a lack of proof the cooperatives were actually operating as true multiple
housing cooperatives instead of standard rental properties. The court ultimately concluded: In light of the evidence and the purpose of housing cooperatives, the court disregards the plaintiffs" organization under chapter 499A and instead treats the apartment buildings by their true nature—a commercial apartment building. The properties were properly assessed as commercial and the plaintiffs" appeal is denied. The plaintiffs filed combined motions under Iowa Rules of Civil Procedure 1.904 (reconsider) and 1.1004 (new trial) and offered other documents, which the court admitted into evidence, that addressed the court"s lack-of-proof concerns in its ruling. At the March hearing on the combined motions, the court admitted the additional evidence from the plaintiffs. In its April ruling, the court denied the motion for new trial, noting: "All the information the court needs to reconsider its previous ruling is found in the exhibit and a new trial would be a waste of judicial resources." The court then addressed the motion for reconsideration. It concluded: In light of the new evidence provided by the plaintiffs and admitted by the court, it is apparent the plaintiffs" rental properties were improperly classified and the appeal should be granted, rather than dismissed as was done in the prior ruling. The plaintiffs followed all proper corporate formalities and the multiple housing cooperatives were set up exactly as prescribed by Iowa law. The absence of the evidence [that] is now before the court had previously raised questions about the propriety of such cooperatives. However, now that the court has seen this evidence it is assured the plaintiffs" rental properties should be classified as residential multiple housing cooperatives under the Iowa Code. The February 10th, 2009 ruling shall be so modified. The Board appeals, contending the court erred in ruling the properties should be classified as residential, because the plaintiffs "are operating as a
commercial enterprise and should be classified as commercial property for tax assessment purposes." SCOPE OF REVIEW. Appeals from decisions of local boards of review are heard in equity. Iowa Code § 441.39. Our review would ordinarily be de novo. Iowa R. App. P. 6.907; Soifer v. Floyd County Bd. of Review, 759 N.W.2d 775, 782 (Iowa 2009). "Here, however, the parties have stipulated to the facts. Thus our review is really limited to the correction of error, if any, in the court"s application of pertinent statutes." City of Newton v. Bd. of Review, 532 N.W.2d 771, 772 (Iowa 1995). MERITS. Iowa Code section 499A.1 provides, in relevant part: "Any two or more persons of full age, a majority of whom are citizens of the state, may organize themselves for the following or similar purposes: Ownership of
residential, business property on a cooperative basis." For tax valuation and assessment, section 441.21(11) provides: "[A]s used in this section, 'residential property' includes all land and buildings of multiple housing cooperatives organized under chapter 499A." The Iowa Administrative Code reinforces this classification: Residential real estate. Residential real estate shall include all lands and buildings which are primarily used or intended for human habitation, including those buildings located on agricultural land. . . . Buildings for human habitation that are used as commercial ventures, including but not limited to hotels, motels, rest homes, and structures containing three or more separate living quarters shall not be considered residential real estate. However, regardless of the number of separate living quarters, multiple housing cooperatives organized under Iowa Code chapter 499A . . . , shall be considered residential real estate. Iowa Admin. Code r. 701-71.1(4) (emphasis added).
It is clear the legislature classified "all land and buildings of multiple housing cooperatives organized under chapter 499A" as "residential property." A cooperative "has the right to purchase real estate for the purpose of erecting, owning, and operating apartment houses or apartment buildings." Iowa Code § 499A.11. Chapter 499A contains no requirement that the property be occupied by the members. In fact, section 499A.14 implies that members might not
occupy an apartment as a residence, because it limits the homestead tax credit to "each member occupying an apartment as a residence," while requiring "each member" to pay a proportionate share of the property tax owed by the cooperative. Section 499A.11 specifies the relationship between the cooperative and its members is "a legal relationship of landlord and tenant." There is no prohibition in chapter 499A against members subleasing their apartments. The proprietary leases issued by the cooperative in this case specifically provide for subleases if the lessor or a majority of the lessor"s directors approve in writing. The leases also specify that the cooperative may demand rent from subtenants if a lessee defaults in paying the rent due, clearly indicating that subleasing is possible. From the evidence in the record, the district court concluded, "The plaintiffs followed all proper corporate formalities and the multiple housing cooperatives were set up exactly as prescribed by Iowa law." From our review of the record and the applicable law, we determine the district court correctly applied the law as set forth in the code and the administrative code.
The Board urges us to "look to the actual operation of the cooperative in classifying the property for tax purposes." See Carroll Area Child Care Center, Inc. v. Carroll County Bd. of Review, 613 N.W.2d 252, 255-57 (Iowa 2000) (applying the "actual use" test to determine if the property was "used solely for the appropriate objects of the charitable institution"). In Carroll, the issue was whether certain property qualified for a charitable tax exemption. We determine the actual use test does not apply to the circumstances before us. Even if we were to consider the actual use of the property owned by the cooperative, the statute specifies the purpose of cooperatives as "erecting, owning, and operating apartment houses or apartment buildings." Iowa Code § 499A.11. That is
exactly what the cooperatives before us are doing. The Board also urges us to pierce the corporate veil, alleging the cooperative is operated as a fraud or sham. Although the district court initially determined the cooperatives complied with the letter but not the spirit of the law, that determination was based on the perceived lack of compliance with routine corporate operation as required in chapter 499A. See, e.g., Iowa Code
§§ 499A.2A (bylaws), .3A (meetings of members), .11 (certificates of ownership and proprietary leases). Once the court was presented with evidence of careful adherence to the requirements of chapter 499A, it changed its ruling. We
determine the district court correctly applied the law to the facts before it, once it had all the facts. We conclude the property owned by the cooperatives in the case before us must be classified as residential property for taxation purposes under Iowa
Code section 441.21(11) and Iowa Administrative Code rule 701-71.1(4). Because the district court correctly applied the law, we affirm its ruling. AFFIRMED. Danilson, J., dissents.
DANILSON, J. (dissenting) I respectfully dissent. The fact that the corporations and cooperatives were established as prescribed by Iowa law does not permit circumscribing the intent of the law. Our supreme court has stated: The rental of multiunit dwellings is generally regarded as an income or profit-oriented enterprise. We, like other jurisdictions, have recognized the commercial nature of apartment complexes and their resulting commercial classification for tax purposes. City of Newton v. Bd. of Review, 532 N.W.2d 771, 773 (Iowa 1995) (internal citations omitted). Here, the parties stipulated that Krupp Place 1 and Krupp Place 2 are both buildings each containing twenty-four apartment units. The only members of each cooperative are Larry Krupp and Connie Krupp. Our supreme court has previously concluded that transforming a mere tenancy to cooperative ownership may not be sufficient to merit preferential property tax treatment. Id. at 774. stated: A "cooperative" is generally defined as a multiunit dwelling in which each resident has (1) an interest in the entity owning the building, and (2) a lease entitling the member to occupy a particular apartment within the building. It is a vehicle for the common ownership of property, a means of enabling the occupants—as members of the cooperative—to own, manage, and operate the apartment without anyone profiting therefrom. Id. (internal citations omitted). Our supreme court has found no merit in the contention that an apartment complex was transformed into a cooperative by the issuance of ownership certificates to the member-tenants where the members were not granted any actual ownership or management rights. Id. In interpreting Iowa Code section 499A.14, our supreme court has
In this action, the tenants lack even a pseudo ownership certificate and only the two members, Larry Krupp and Connie Krupp, manage and own the forty-eight apartment units. Under these stipulated facts, no legitimate claim can exist that Krupp Place 1 and Krupp Place 2 are "cooperatives" and deserve residential property status for tax purposes.

Michael Conroy, Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Arian Foster's 9-yard touchdown run in the first minute helped the Houston Texans take a 10-3 lead over the Colts at the end of the first quarter.
Foster ran for 64 yards on seven carries in the opening quarter.
Indianapolis had one first down and was held to 21 yards in the first quarter.
On Indianapolis' first play from scrimmage, Houston's Brian Cushing sacked Indy quarterback Dan Orlovsky and forced him to fumble. Houston's Brooks Reed recovered at the Indianapolis 17. Two plays later, Foster's touchdown gave the Texans a 7-0 lead 54 seconds into the game.
The Colts (1-13) went three-and-out on their next drive. Houston took over at its 38-yard line, but this time, the Colts caught the break. Robert Mathis sacked Houston quarterback T.J. Yates, forced a fumble and recovered it himself at the Houston 36-yard line. The Colts wasted the opportunity when Orlovsky was sacked by Connor Barwin at the Houston 40-yard line on third down.
Houston (10-4) punted out of its end zone on its next possession, and Indy's Pierre Garcon returned it 20 yards to the Houston 27.
Orlovsky's 12-yard completion to Austin Collie on third-and-8 set Indy up at the Houston 13. The drive stalled, and Adam Vinatieri's 23-yard field goal cut Houston's lead to 7-3.
Houston ripped off huge chunks of yardage to start the next drive — a 29-yard pass from Yates to Kevin Walter and an 18-yard run by Foster — to move into Indianapolis territory. Eventually, the Colts' defense tightened up, and Neil Rackers made a 44-yard field goal to push Houston's lead to 10-3 with 2:01 left in the quarter.
The Colts lead the series 16-3 and have never lost at home to the Texans, but Houston beat Indy 34-7 in the opener and has won two of the past three meetings.
Indianapolis is coming off its first win of the season, a 27-13 win over Tennessee. Donald Brown ran for a career-high 161 yards that day, including a clinching 80-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
The Colts dominated the AFC South for nearly a decade, but the Texans have already clinched the franchise's first home playoff game, dethroning a Colts team that won seven of the previous eight division crowns.
The Texans have kept rolling despite losing starting quarterback Matt Schaub and backup Matt Leinart to season-ending injuries. Receiver Andre Johnson missed his ninth straight game with a strained left hamstring.

I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

Wouldn't it be great if you could grow and harvest edible mushrooms in your backyard? The good news is you can and many people do so. Here is your chance to come learn how with the Mushroom Maestros, local experts in small scale mushroom farming.
In this hands-on workshop, we will learn about mushroom ecology and fungi life cycles and then we will apply this knowledge directly, making mushroom kits for participants to take home as well as installing a modest backyard mushroom bed in a local urban garden. We will also discuss various topics from mushroom lore to local mycoremediation projects that the Bay Area Radical Mycology group are working on.
Come and join us this Friday, March 1st, from 2 - 4:30 pm for a fungi good time.
A very limited number of tickets for the event are available, sliding scale $15 - $45, so get your tickets today! The lower end prices are for students and low income participants, while those who live in abundance and can afford a little more are encouraged to do so to support the Mushroom Maestros and Bay Area Radical Mycology projects in mycoremediation. Tickets are non-refundable.

Rather than focusing solely on its achievements on such a day, VERITAS is taking the time to reaffirm its business philosophy that puts servicing customers and their needs ahead of everything else. Moreover, in keeping with its history as an innovator, the company announced that it's positioned to bring the next computing paradigm - utility computing - to its customers.
Co-founder Dale Shipley formed Tolerant Software in 1988 with the noble-minded intention of fostering engineering excellence through software development aimed at ensuring the availability of computing systems and mission-critical applications. VERITAS Software emerged from Tolerant Software in 1989 which itself emerged from Tolerant Transaction Systems. Flash-forward fifteen years and one now finds a company that is a leading independent provider of software enabling utility computing, with over 7,100 employees and business enterprises in more than 40 countries around the world.
Reflecting upon the modest roots of VERITAS, Shipley said:
"From the beginning in 1989 when we formed VERITAS Software the cornerstone of our success centered upon convincing and securing the support of AT&T UNIX System Laboratories, Inc. to trust us to extract the valuable code from the Tolerant Systems high availability operating system and develop and deliver the industry's first robust UNIX System V transaction-based volume manager and file system thereby contributing the early success of AT&T and Sun Microsystems in the promising UNIX marketplace."
In describing how intelligent risk-taking enabled VERITAS to flourish, Shipley added, "It was this calculated risk that opened the door to the broad horizontal adoption of VERITAS software by the myriad of UNIX systems vendors and paved the path toward the company's leadership in storage management and data protection. The company's initial value proposition still holds true today, a company's most valuable IT assets are not the hardware systems, but rather the data that resides on, and runs across them and the protection and availability of that data is paramount."
When VERITAS initially began developing its business plan, the company kept things remarkably focused and simple. A hallmark of many great business ventures. Just starting to make its way in the world, the company strategized on three priorities that would be their focal point. Namely, the elimination of system downtime, the simplification of overly complex tasks and development of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to visualize storage management and administrative tasks, and lastly, the adoption of a maniacal focus toward enhancing the performance of systems.
At a time when customers' file systems were "naturally" serviced by the manufacturer of their operating systems, VERITAS' proposition, calling for the independent servicing of enterprise file systems, seemed absurd. However, the company was able to not only convince customers that the start-up could provide better support of their files, but VERITAS backed this claim up with objective benchmarks so customers could see what they were gaining. Thus, VERITAS Volume Manager was introduced in 1990 and VERITAS File System in 1991. The products are two of the company's flagship products that can be found at the heart of nearly 70 percent of the world's data centers today.
Highlighting the company's customer centric philosophy, John Colgrove, VERITAS Fellow and 15 year veteran, VERITAS, said, "If you listen to customer's problems and what they're trying to do and you listen to their goals you get ideas for how you can go and create solutions to solve them. This remains our long term approach and we're working on some very interesting things for customers that will really deliver huge value when they choose our software."
VERITAS' customer base encompasses both small business and large corporations running highly complex enterprise systems. Both these business segments have helped to make VERITAS the industry standard for data backup and protection. VERITAS merged with OpenVision in 1997 and delivered its first release of VERITAS NetBackup software to customers. The company's engineers designed the software to provide maximum backup capabilities with the least disruption to end users. It does not seem surprising then that NetBackup is the No.1 backup and recovery software that allows companies to reduce costs by taking advantage of advanced enterprise features, such as synthetics, disk-based protection, automated disaster recovery, and desktop and laptop protection.
As the company advances, it brings to its customers a history steeped in providing solutions that are not only cutting-edge, but also extremely employable in reducing costs and preparing for revolutions that are gearing to take place. With grid computing, IT managers are being encouraged to shift from reactive problem resolution to proactive availability and failover testing of servers, storage systems, and applications before effecting business. By combining VERITAS Cluster Server with VERITAS i3, VERITAS OpForce and VERITAS UpScale software (to be released in 2005), IT managers will realize how much automating IT infrastructure can save their company.
Oleg Kiselev, technical director and 14 year veteran, VERITAS, speaking of utility computing said, "Utility computing is much like the box filled with wooden building blocks at your child's school; one day the children share the blocks to build a castle and a space station and the next day they use the same blocks to build whatever their imaginations come up with. Now apply that analogy to a box full of IT building blocks-- storage, servers, switches, and software. With VERITAS software, IT can provision those resources when they're needed, where they're needed, as they're needed and when they are no longer needed they can place them back in a resource pool or put them back in the box. Add to this the ability to automatically specify and maintain agreed upon application service and availability levels and provide fine-grain usage accounting and you have a powerful set of building blocks. In a nutshell our approach is to deliver the software building blocks that enable utility computing."
VERITAS today is one of the 10 largest software companies in the world. Using a utility computing model, VERITAS aligns IT resources with business needs. Ninety-nine percent of the Fortune 500 Companies use VERITAS products for data protection, storage and server management, and application performance management.

On the Land
Dipton man Daniel Schwarz has plenty of reasons to get out of bed in the morning.
The 21-year-old dairy herd manager and his partner, Hanna Butcher, have three children - Kayla, 6, Travis, 5, and Charlotte, 1, - and are expecting another baby next month.
Schwarz has won the 2012 AgITO Overall Southland Trainee of the Year and Outstanding Junior Dairy Trainee of the Year awards. He said the titles had given his confidence a welcome boost.
"It's just like a pat on the back really. Lets you know that what you're doing and where you're going is working for you so keep going," he said.
He would always be grateful to his employer, Trevor Butcher, for helping him.
Schwarz said he had been given every opportunity to learn.
"And I'm just one of those people, if you're going to dangle a carrot in front of me I'm going to take it."
Schwarz said his next goals were to secure a farm manager's position and gain acceptance into AgITO's Farming to Succeed programme.
"It's such a big step and it is intimidating but I work my bum off, always have, always will."
However, that did not mean working alone.
He and his partner both attended the DairyNZ Biz Grow course and enjoyed being among other like-minded people, he said.
The couple had also bought sexed semen they hoped would result in heifer calves from their fledgling herd of 10 cows, leased to Trevor Butcher, which they would then be able to keep.
Schwarz planned to develop his skills by attending an artificial insemination course.
"I'm not chasing the dollar, I'm chasing knowledge and growth," he said.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

RJD announces new office bearers to galvanise party
Patna: In a bid to galvanise the party in
Bihar, opposition RJD on Friday announced a new list of office
bearers for various posts accommodating as many as 161 leaders.
RJD Bihar president Ramchandra Purve told newsmen that
there are 21 vice-presidents, 66 general secretaries, 65
secretaries, 6 spokespersons, one media in-charge, one chief
spokesman, one chief general secretary and one treasurer in
the reconstituted body.
Rajya Sabha MP Ram Kripal Yadav has been retained the
chief general secretary and former minister Shakeel Ahmed Khan
was the chief spokesman, he said.
The geographical and class balance had been taken into
account in the reconstitution and RJD national president Lalu
Prasad will address the newly-appointed state unit office
bearers, he said.
RJD, he said, would launch a state-wide agitation
against alleged deterioration in law and order and corruption
under the NDA government in Bihar since June onwards.
There has been a spate in crime in the state and
atrocities against dalits and weaker sections during the
second term of NDA government while there was rampant
corruption and loot of public money at the local level and
under the circumstances RJD had decided to launch the
Shortage of drinking water and electricity and the
state government`s inability to provide basic amenities to its
people will be other issues highlighted during the agitational
programme which would be held at the block and district levels
and here simultaneously, he added.

Where he was trying to learn his way in the professional ranks, even though he was still an amateur. And I had a chance to talk with some players yesterday about what he can expect, and I got some different stories. Ricky Barns, who also had a very good amateur career before he turned pro He talked about time management. Bryson's gonna have to learn how to not show up at a golf course and spend 8 hours just pounding golf balls and playing too many practice rounds. And Bryson admitted that was a problem last week at Augusta. He wore himself out. Colt knows to again, also had a very good amateur career, talked about how difficult it was for him to go from college where you play 15 events in a season To turn pro when he was playing 30. So there's going to be a learning curve there as well. But the best answer I thought I got yesterday was from Lucas Glover . He said that when he turned pro a veteran walked up to him and said congratulations. You've had a great amateur career.

And then we have all the averages of the golf ball that we recommended for you, which was the B330RX. The biggest difference with our golf ball is the soft compression technology , or gradational core technology. Basically what that means is the golf ball will compress more at impact. And it prevents the ball from skidding or glancing off the face of your driver. The biggest thing with you, you playing a cut, a cut is a very high swing shot, so a firmer gold ball or a tour level golf ball will actually generate more backspin and more side spin, because it's not compressing and turning it's not glancing and creating more rotation
