DEPARTMENT OF PROPERTY TAX AND PUBLIC RECORDS A607 Government Center HENNEPIN Minneapolis, Minnesota 55487-0067 Crossroads To Service July 24, 1992 Connie Kroeplin Clerk City of St. Anthony 3301 Silver Lake Road Northeast St. Anthony, Minnesota 55418 Dear Ms. Kroeplin: Enclosed is a bill for county costs incurred for administration of tax increment districts in your city from January 1 , 1991 to December 31, 1991 . This billing is authorized by Minnesota Statutes, section 469.176, subdivision 4h. • TIF administration costs consist of maintenance costs for existing districts and one- time certification costs for new districts. These costs are derived from the actual 1991 budget expenditure reports for property tax functions for the Department of Property Tax and Public Records. County maintenance costs totaling $149,345.30 have been charged to TIF districts in the county for 1991 . Billings are substantially higher this year because the costs include the entire year for the first time. The billing for last year covered only eight months, as provided by law. One half of the maintenance cost is apportioned equally to each TIF district or enlarged district ($379.62 each) to reflect fixed costs per district. The remaining half of the maintenance cost is spread to each district based on the number of parcels; a per parcel charge of $5.63 is included in the maintenance cost. Certification costs are included for newly certified districts to reflect the average direct personnel costs incurred per district to compile and input tax increment data into the computer system. This is a one-time charge for new districts. Records of administrative costs and allocation methods are available for review in my office by appointment. If you have any questions or comments on this billing or on Hennepin County TIF administration in general, feel free to write or phone me • at 343-5668. HENNEPIN COUNTY an equal opportunity employer
