8. New Business
A. Discussion re: spending $630 .00 for information page and map
in Sun Phone Directory. I question the merit of this expendi-
ture with our tight budget situation. We have had this in the
past though and I felt the Council should discuss the expendi-
ture before we go ahead with it.
ACTION: Council
B. Discussion of Hennepin County ' s Assessor to St. Anthony Assessor
to increase residential values by 11% . If we don't make ad-
justments they will do it on an across the board basis and I
feel we can do a better job if we do it on a property by pro-
perty basis . The attached sheet from the assessor indicates
that in most cases the increase is justified.
• ACTION: Recommend that we abide by Hennepin County 's directive _
