COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW APRIL 10, 1990 The annual Council Board of Review was called to order by Mayor Bisel on Tuesday, 7:00 P.M., April 10, 1990. Council Members present: Reinert, Bohjanen, Kuether. Council Members absent: Neal. City Assessor, Jeff Neinaber and Clerk- Treasurer Marilyn Anderson were also present. Commercial Assessor Scott Varner arrived at 8:00 P.M. Mayor Bisel explained that this meeting was scheduled to conduct the annual Board of Review. Landowners who wish to discuss the value the Assessor has placed on their property may do so at this meeting. He explained that two years ago the City hired the County Assessor to prepare a complete review and update of all parcels in the City of Lino Lakes. This was done because it was felt that there were some inequities in the valuation of properties. The City desired to correct the inequities and felt that by hiring the County Assessor, the entire City then would be consistent with all cities in Anoka County. This process has been completed within this past two years and everyone in Lino Lakes should be on an equal basis. This should allow the City to have a better handle on its budget and further allow the staff to determine how much money is needed to operate the City. Mayor Bisel explained that cards were made available for landowners to record their name, address and parcel numbers. Mr. Neinaber was asked to call each landowner in order of cards presented to him. Mr. Neinaber noted that a number of landowners did come and speak to him prior to the meeting about general questions regarding their property valuation. Their questions were answered and these landowners will not be addressed during this meeting. Forrest Tagg, 7504 Lake Drive, represented by Joseph and Alice Tagg. The Tagg property is zoned commercial and this matter was tabled until Mr. Varner, the commercial assessor arrived. Glenn Rehbein, 7374 Lake Drive, PIN 17- 31 -22 -31 -0010. Mr. Rehbein noted that this parcel contains his home and that the valuation has increased from $137,000 for 1989 to $246,600 for 1991. Mr. Neinaber explained that he has been to the house and has measured the outside dimensions, however he has not been able to view the inside of the house. He noted that until he can view the inside of the house he will only estimate the total value. Mr. Rehbein gave Mr. Neinaber his telephone number and will make arrangements for Mr. Neinaber to come and view the inside of the home.
