Anoka County Citv of Lino Lakes <br />Informal Appeal <br />• Property owners are encouraged to call the appraiser or assessor whenever they have questions <br />or concerns about their market value, classification of the property, or the assessment process. <br />• Almost all questions can be answered during this informal appeal process. <br />• When taxpayers call questioning their market value, every effort is made to make an appointment <br />to inspect properties that were not previously inspected. <br />• If the data on the property is correct, the appraiser can show the property owner other sales in the <br />market that support the estimated market value. <br />• If errors are found during the inspection, or other factors indicate a value reduction is warranted, <br />the appraiser can easily make the changes at this time. <br />Local Board of Appeal and Equalization <br />• The Local Board of Appeal and Equalization is typically made up of city council members or <br />township board members. In certain cases, a special board is appointed and typically consists of <br />real estate professionals. <br />• The Board meets during late April and early May. <br />• Taxpayers can make their appeal in person or by letter. <br />• If an interior inspection is denied no adjustment can be made to value per MN Statute. <br />• The assessor is present to answer any questions and present evidence supporting their value. <br />County Board of Appeal and Equalization <br />• In order to appeal to the County Board of Appeal and Equalization, a property owner must first <br />appeal to the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization. <br />• The County Board of Appeal and Equalization follows the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization <br />in the assessment appeals process. <br />• Again, if an interior inspection is denied no adjustment can be made to value per MN Statute. <br />• Their role is to ensure equalization among individual assessment districts and classes of property. <br />• Decisions of the County Board of Appeal and Equalization can be appealed to the Minnesota Tax <br />Court. <br />Minnesota Tax Court <br />The Tax Court has statewide jurisdiction. Except for an appeal to the Supreme Court, the Tax Court shall be <br />the sole, exclusive and final authority for the hearing and determination of all questions of law and fact <br />arising under the tax laws of the state. There are two divisions of tax court: the small claims division and <br />the regular division. <br />The Small Claims Division of the Tax Court only hears appeals involving one of the following situations: <br />• The assessor's estimated market value of the property is less than $300,000 <br />• The entire parcel is classified as a residential homestead and the parcel contains no more than one <br />dwelling unit. <br />• The entire property is classified as an agricultural homestead. <br />• Appeals involving the denial of a current year application for homestead classification of the <br />property. <br />The proceedings of the small claims division are less formal and property owners often represent <br />themselves. There is no official record of the proceedings. Decisions made by the small claims division <br />are final and cannot he appealed further. Small claims decisions do not set precedent <br />
