1 <br />1 <br />COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW APRIL 20, 1987 <br />Racutt said the City Assessor did not enter his home and asked how an <br />appraisal could be made from the street. <br />Mr. Marier moved to have the County look at the property. Mr. Bisel <br />seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />Mayor Benson noted a letter received from Mr. Rudolph W. Ronan. 6255 <br />Laurene Avenue questioning the inflation factor used in raising the <br />value of his property. Ms. Bockniak will call Mr. Ronan and discuss <br />the concern with him. <br />Mr. Racutt questioned the mill rate. Mayor Benson told Mr. Racutt <br />that the property taxes which is based on the mill rate goes into the <br />General Fund for the maintenance of City services. Such items as <br />sewer and water are assessed to the benefited property owners. He <br />also noted that such items as Federal Revenue Sharing has been <br />eliminated by the Federal Government and that is why the City must <br />increase the mill rate to just keep services at the present levels. <br />Mr. Doyle asked what area wide taxes were. Ms. Bockniak explained. <br />Mr. Schumacher further explained that some communities are developing <br />faster that others and therefore have a better tax base. Area wide <br />taxing spreads the base to less developed communites. Therefore <br />communities such as Lino Lakes benefit. <br />Mr. Marier moved to adjourn at 8:05 P.M. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the <br />motion. Aye. <br />These minutes were considered and approved at a regular council <br />meeting on June 8 1987. <br />rt ti Y iC 7 L:1 't <br />AB1LY G.
