100 <br />COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW <br />APRIL 15, 1991 <br />The annual Council Board of Review was called to order by <br />Mayor Bisel on Monday, April 15, 1991 at 6:33 PM. Council <br />Members present: Neal, Reinert, Bohjanen. Members absent: <br />Kuether. Administrative Assistant, Dan Tesch and Carole <br />Kohler, Parks Secretary were also present. Representing the <br />Anoka County Assessors office were Jeff Nienaber and Arlene <br />Andrea. <br />Mayor Bisel explained the purpose of the meeting was for <br />landowners to bring questions concerning the valuation the <br />Assessor has placed on their property may do so at this time. <br />Mayor Bisel explained that green cards were made available at <br />the door for landowners to record their name, address and <br />parcel numbers, plus any comments they wish to make at this <br />time, and these will be addressed by Jeff Nienaber in the <br />order that they were received. <br />Mr. Nienaber began by explaining how taxes are determined, <br />and how the valuation is set. <br />Judith Grandel, 6891 Lake Drive. Mrs. Grandel explained that <br />the City took 2.8 acres of her property last July for the <br />extension of 2nd Avenue but when she got her tax statement, <br />taxes had increased. She has three lots left, but feels that <br />one of those lots is not buildable. Mr. Nienaber said he will <br />send the assessor out to re- evaluate the property within the <br />next week. <br />Robert Walberg, 6841 Lakeview Place. Mr. Walberg questioned <br />why his taxes are so high even though the valuation of his <br />property had not gone up. The property and structure were <br />appraised at $58,9000.00 in 1988, and had increased in value <br />only a little since then. He thinks the last appraisal could <br />be wrong. Mr. Nienaber agreed to send the appraiser out to <br />evaluate the property again. <br />Rodney Hanson, 6325 Baldwin Lake Road. Mr. Hanson was <br />questioning how the value of his property could increase by <br />$18,000.00 in one year. Mr. Nienaber explained that the <br />property was re- evaluated in August of 1990, and was <br />determined to be $101,000.00 - up from $83,000.00 . Mr. <br />Hanson says that nothing has been added or changed in several <br />years. Mr. Nienaber thinks there's a possibility the <br />assessment of several years ago differs because some things <br />may have been overlooked, possibly square footage. He will <br />send someone out to evaluate the property again. Mr. Hanson <br />was agreeable to that. <br />Kyle Kruger, 1033 Lantern Circle. Mr. Kruger bought this <br />house one year ago for $76,500.00. His valuation this year is <br />$97,700.00. Mr. Nienaber pointed out that the last <br />1 <br />1 <br />
