515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 <br />(612) 484 -2177 / FAX: (612) 484 -4538 <br />January 22, 1993 <br />TO: Mayor Hanson and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Kathy Glanzer, Administrative Assistant <br />RE: Partial Pre - Payment of Assessments <br />MAYOR <br />Raymond G. Hanson <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Steve Morelan <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Hanson <br />The question has arisen about partial pre - payment of assessments. <br />The City currently does not currently allow for partial pre - payment <br />of assessments. Assessment balances are either paid -in -full to the <br />City with the addition of no interest for up to 30 days after <br />adoption of an assessment or after 30 days have elapsed, certified to <br />the County Auditor for collection. Once certified to the County <br />Auditor, interest begins to accrue on the assessment. State Law does <br />not allow for partial payment of assessments once they have been <br />certified to the County for collection. <br />Should the Council desire, it can by ordinance allow for partial <br />pre - payment of assessments prior to certification to the County. If <br />partial payments are made within the 30 day time period, staff would <br />work with the County to ensure that the appropriate assessment <br />balances are certified correctly. Again please note that once an <br />assessment is certified, no partial payments can be accepted. <br />Page 6 <br />
