The statement indicates there was interest due on this parcel. It continues to be the position of the State of Minnesota, with review by the Attorney General,s office, that the State does not pay penalties, interests or costs unless specifically provided for by law. (See Minnesota Statutes, sec. 645.27). Generally, the counties either submit tax statements that only reflect the base tax, or the counties abate any penalties, interests or costs that appeared on the original statement. For your county, we would appreciate it if you would abate the interest that appeared on the 2014 property tax statements. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (651) 259-5393 or belem.esco bed o-ibarra(a)state.mn.us.
