202.16 202.16 202.16: SUPPLEMENTAL ASSESSMENTS AND RE-ASSESSMENTS: Subd. 1. Supplemental Assessments: The Council may make supplemental assessments to correct omissions, errors or mistakes in the assessment relating to the total cost of the improvement or any other particular. A supplemental assessment shall be preceded by personal or mailed notice to the owner of each parcel included in the supplemental assessment and a hearing as provided for the original assessment. Subd. 2. Re-Assessment: When an assessment is, for any reason whatever, set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction as to any parcel of land, or in event the Council finds that the assessment or any part thereof is excessive or determines, on advice of the City Attorney, that the assessment or proposed assessment or any part thereof is or may be invalid for any reason, the Council may, upon notice and hearing as provided for the original assessment, make a re-assessment or a new provided assessment as to such parcel. Subd. 3. Reapportionment Upon Land Division: When a tract of land against which a special assessment has been levied is thereafter divided or subdivided by plat or otherwise, the Council may, on application of the owner of any part of the tract or on its own motion, equitably apportion among the various lots or parcels in the tract all the installments of the assessment against the tract remaining unpaid and not then due if it determines that such apportionment will not materially impair collection of the unpaid balance of the original assessment against the tract. The Council may, and if the special assessment has been pledged to the payment of improvement warrants shall, require the owner, as a condition of such apportionment, to furnish a satisfactory surety bond fully protecting the City against any loss resulting from failure to pay any part of the reapportionment assessment when due. Notice of such apportionment and of the right to appeal shall be mailed to or personally served upon all owners of any part of the tract. Within thirty (30) days after the mailing or service of the notice of such apportionment, any such owner may appeal as provided in Section 202.11 of this Chapter. Subd. 4. Re-Assessment of Tax Forfeited Land 1: a. When a parcel of tax-forfeited land is returned to private ownership and the parcel is benefited by an improvement for which special assessments were cancelled because of the forfeiture, the City may, upon notice and hearing as provided for the original assessment, make a re-assessment or a new assessment as to the parcel in an amount equal to the amount remaining unpaid on the original assessment. (1988 Code §26.11) b. The Council may make a re-assessment or a new assessment pursuant to subdivision 4a above; notwithstanding, that the original assessment may have been made pursuant to other general law or special law. (1988 Code §26.23) 1 See also Section 202.17 of this Chapter. City of Mounds View
