HomeMy WebLinkAbout04/17/1995 Council Minutes?_4 CITY COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW CITY OF LINO LAKES COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 17, 1995 Staff members present: City Clerk -Treasurer, Marilyn Anderson. Anoka County Assessor's Todd Smith and Mary Boyle were also present. Mayor Reinert explained the purpose of the meeting is to review property values of landowners in Lino Lakes, not actual taxes. He introduced Mr. Smith and Ms. Boyle and explained that they will answer any questions regarding the value that has been placed on property. Mayor Reinert said that if a landowner is not satisfied by the explanation given this evening, they have the right to take the matter to the County Board of Equalization Beverly Wolters, 7787 Lake Drive - Ms. Wolters was present and explained that she has made arrangements to meet with Mr. Smith tomorrow regarding the commercial property that she owns at 7787 Lake Drive. Cathy Thompson, 6342 Red Hawk Trail was present and explained that her valuation increased more than $20,000.00 in one year. She felt that this was unreasonable since no improvement have been added to the property. Mr. Smith explained that he personally reviewed her area in 1994. He noted that her land value is comparable to recent land sales. Mr. Thurston, County Assessor, made a decision to increase the structure values on all of Anoka County properties by three (3) percent. Ms. Thompson's structures were increased by the same percentage. The purpose of the increase was to reflect actual market value. Council Member Bergeson asked if the law is still in effect that PAGE 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 CITY COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW APRIL 17, 1995 prohibits any increase in value of more than 10%? Mr. Smith yes and Mr. and Mrs. Thompson may be eligible for a refund. Ms. Thompson said she felt that if no improvements are made to the property, the value should remain steady. Ms. Thompson has the option of appearing at the County Board of Equalization. Gerald Clausen, 6109 Baldwin Lake Drive noted that his property was valued at $47,700.00 in 1988 and it will be valued at $89,400.00 in 1996. He explained that he has been living in the house since 1952 and nothing has changed. Mr. Clausen said he is retired and living on a fixed income. He has applied for the circuit breaker refund. The refund is $100.00. Mr. Clausen said that this does not seem right to him. He said he did not agree with all the development in the City because it causes a need for additional schools, police and fire protection and street maintenance and increases the property values as it has in his case. Mr. Smith said the bulk of the increase is in land values. There was only a 3% increase in structure values. He also noted that the value for wells and septic systems has increased from $2,000.00 to $4,000.00 to more closely reflect the actual cost of installation. Mr. Clausen noted that about one-third to one-half of his property is in the flood plain. Mr. Smith explained that although the value on the property is high, people are paying the prices to relocate in°Lino Lakes. Mr. Clausen said that progress is killing some of the older residents. He explained that the increased traffic on Baldwin Lake Drive is "killing" the road. Mr. Smith said that he empathized with Mr. Clausen, however the law says that he must value all property at market price. Mr. Clausen has the opportunity to take this matter to the County Board of Equalization. Robert Krause, 6675 Blue Heron Drive explained that their market value increased $21, 400.00. They have met with Mr. Smith and there have been no changes to this point. However, Mrs. Krause did have some information from her realtor and Mr. Smith will take this information into consideration. Mr. Smith again noted that the Rice Lake Estates area was completely reviewed in 1994 and a lot of changes were made. He explained that without completely ignoring the market valuation PAGE 2 24 y, CITY COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW APRIL 17, 1995 system, he has adjusted the market value from $138,600.00 to $133,400.00. He noted that he has some recent sales in that area for comparison. Mr. Smith noted that the style of the home is somewhat different that others in that area. Mr. Smith will contact the Krause's and review the material given to her by her realtor. If the Krause's are still not satisfied, he will send another appraiser to review this property. They will also have the opportunity to bring the matter before the County Board of Equalization. Mayor Reinert expressed satisfaction with the work done by Mr. Smith. He noted that before Mr. Smith became the City Assessor, the council chambers were crowded for this meeting. Mr. Smith explained that a lot of changes have occurred that are not under his control. He gave a brief explanation of how the appraisal system operates. Council Member Neal asked for a clarification of property values in the Apollo Business Park. Mr. Smith said there was some miscommunication regarding who was paying the actual assessments on the property. He understood that the new landowner had paid his own assessments. This would increase the value of the property. However, since this is not the case, those property values have been adjusted. Property owners will be notified by mail of the changes. 1 1 Ms. Boyle explained that many things go into calculating the value of commercial property. The process is complicated. Council Member Kuether asked if the property owners in the Apollo Business Park are getting a break because they are getting Tax 1 Increment Financing (TIF)? Ms. Boyle explained the process and noted that Fiscal Disparity comes into the process. She noted that most areas of Anoka.` County benefit from Fiscal Disparity and certainly Lino Lakes benefits. Mr. Smith explained the "This Old House" legislation. The purpose is to restore properties over 35 years old. The increased value of the property is deferred or spread out over several years. There was discussion regarding how this information can be given to the public. Mayor Reinert asked that this matter be brought before the City Council at a work session so that the newspapers can publish the information. Mr. Smith told the City Council that he has just finished rephotographing the entire City. Ms. Boyle noted that Mr. Gary Uhde has called and sent a letter PAGE 3 1 1 1 CITY COUNCIL BOARD OF REVIEW APRIL 17, 1995 regarding the valuations on parcels 18-31-22-41-0005 and 18-31- 22-42-0002. He has requested that the valuation of the properties be reviewed. The property is adjacent to the Apollo Business Park. Ms. Boyle noted that Mr. Mike Muske has called regarding parcels 09-31-22-22-0021 and 09-31-22-22-0022. The parcels contain the ERA Muske Real Estate Office at 7989 Lake Drive. Ms. Boyle will review the property values and if Mr. Muske is still not satisfied, he will be advised to go the County Board of Review. Attached to these minutes is a list of individuals who have had their market values resolved prior to this meeting. Council Member Kuether moved to adjourn at 7:24 P.M. Council Member Bergeson seconded the motion. Aye These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at a regular meeting of the City Council on May 8, 1995. f%-7 y- (fn vet y!?l MarilyA G.
