Item No: 7.C Meeting Date: March 28, 2011 Type of Business: Council Business Administrator Review: _____ City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Mark Beer, Finance Director Item Title/Subject: Public Hearing to receive Public Input and pass upon Resolution 7761 Adopting a Special Assessment Levy for Delinquent Public Utility Accounts and Unpaid False Alarm Charges A public hearing is scheduled for 7:15 P.M. to receive public input regarding the proposed assessment of a delinquent public utility account and unpaid false alarm charges for the same property. The individual notice of the meeting was sent by first class mail to the affected property owner on February 15, 2011. The City Administrator and the Finance Director met with the affected property representative and he has acknowledged the outstanding amounts. Attached is the assessment roll for the assessment notice that was sent out. This account was more than two quarters delinquent as of February 15, 2011 and had unpaid false alarm charges from 2010 and 2011. The property owner has until 4:30 P.M. on Monday, March 28, 2011 to pay the amount in full in order to avoid the $35.00 administrative fee. The property owner may pay after the roll is certified Monday night, but before the roll is forwarded to Ramsey County. In that case, they will pay the total due, including the administrative fee. The owner may prepay the assessment between March 29, 2011 and April 28, 2011 without paying additional interest. After that, interest at the rate of 5.5% will accrue from March 28, 2011 through the payment date. The interest rate and administrative fee were set by the City Council in Resolution 7135. On or about April 29, 2011, we will forward the assessment roll to Ramsey County for collection with the 2012 property taxes. Respectfully submitted, ___________________________ Mark Beer
