A lot owned by Iowa State Savings Bank has been given to the City of Melcher-Dallas to use for a new library.

The bank donated the deed to the property to the city last month.

When Friends of the Melcher-Dallas Public Library recently announced plans to build a new public library and Iowa State Savings Bank believed the lot they owned next to their Melcher-Dallas office would be a great area for it. It will also allow for future expansion of the facility.
