So again, 00:03:13.133 --> 00:03:16.233 the meeting overview and assessment procedures on this 00:03:16.233 --> 00:03:19.500 to recap on this. The purpose is to provide a form for 00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:22.300 property owners who appealed their 2025 valuation and 00:03:22.300 --> 00:03:25.400 classification. On that previously mentioned April 14, 00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:29.767 2025, local Board of Appeal and equalization date or have 00:03:29.767 --> 00:03:32.300 appealed between that local board date and the reconvened 00:03:32.300 --> 00:03:35.634 meeting, which was originally scheduled um prior to the 28th 00:03:35.634 --> 00:03:42.000 this week earlier. Uh, to recap, you cannot review the amount or 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:46.734 percentage change over the previous years. The tax amount 00:03:46.734 --> 00:03:51.000 or potential tax impact. Is not to be taken into consideration. 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:55.767 We are here for the taxable the property valuation purposes. 00:03:55.767 --> 00:04:00.533 The board can determine to increase, decrease or sustain 00:04:00.533 --> 00:04:06.467 the assessed value. The adjustments must be 00:04:06.467 --> 00:04:09.266 substantiated by factual evidence, i.e., supporting 00:04:09.266 --> 00:04:12.300 documentation, that I feel statements. And we are 00:04:12.300 --> 00:04:16.000 requesting the time limit for presentation to be 3 minutes. 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:21.367 Per Ah, so again, the adjustments must be 00:04:21.367 --> 00:04:23.500 substantiated by factual evidence, the burden of proof 00:04:23.500 --> 00:04:27.200 rests with the property owners who must present factual 00:04:27.200 --> 00:04:30.033 evidence to disprove the assessor’s value for the 00:04:30.033 --> 00:04:34.734 assessment January 2, 2025 for taxes payable in 2026. 00:04:34.734 --> 00:04:38.900 Reasonable effort must be made on behalf of the property owner 00:04:38.900 --> 00:04:42.166 to communicate regarding appeal, as well as allow interior 00:04:42.166 --> 00:04:46.000 viewing of the property and additional structures. That is 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:52.467 a state statute, Minnesota state statute 274.01 00:04:52.467 --> 00:04:55.567 subdivision one paragraph B. Uh, the sentence starts with the 00:04:55.567 --> 00:04:59.133 board may not make individual market value adjustments or 00:04:59.133 --> 00:05:03.734 classifications. Change that would benefit the property 00:05:03.734 --> 00:05:07.300 owner if the property, if the owner or other persons having 00:05:07.300 --> 00:05:10.467 control of the property has refused the assessor access to 00:05:10.467 --> 00:05:18.000 inspect the property. And the interior of any buildings or 00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.266 structures provided in subsection 273.20, which breaks 00:05:21.266 --> 00:05:27.033 down the assessor’s function. Um, also per state statute, any 00:05:27.033 --> 00:05:31.300 city council person members acting as a board member with a 00:05:31.300 --> 00:05:34.000 property appeal or appeals must excuse or recuse themselves 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.634 from any actions pertaining to their property or property use. 00:05:36.634 --> 00:05:40.467 If they wish to comment, it will be the same its manner and 00:05:40.467 --> 00:05:45.300 procedure which residents will be able to do so. That is uh 00:05:45.300 --> 00:05:50.033 also in the same statue. Uh, starting with the a board 00:05:50.033 --> 00:05:52.734 member may not or shall not participate in any actions of 00:05:52.734 --> 00:05:55.900 the board, which results in market value adjustments or 00:05:55.900 --> 00:05:58.033 classification changes to property owned by the board 00:05:58.033 --> 00:06:03.400 member. The spouse, parent, stepparent, child, stepchild, 00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:06.500 grandparent, grandchild, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, 00:06:06.500 --> 00:06:09.367 nephew, or niece of a board member or property in which 00:06:09.367 --> 00:06:13.000 board member has a financial interest. The relationship may 00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:20.467 be by blood or by marriage. So that being said, we have 00:06:20.467 --> 00:06:23.100 example C.1, which were the appeals that were received on 00:06:23.100 --> 00:06:28.900 April 14th of 2025. I’m not gonna recap these as they were. 00:06:28.900 --> 00:06:31.233 We’ll get through those in a moment, but those are the 00:06:31.233 --> 00:06:36.634 individuals who Presented themselves. And their parcels 00:06:36.634 --> 00:06:44.033 and the 14th date. Um, after the 14th between that date and 00:06:44.033 --> 00:06:55.734 the reconvened, one member, uh, parcel ID 0511921130040 for 00:06:55.734 --> 00:06:59.400 Joshua and Susan Hegel, residing at 6941, 105th Trail 00:06:59.400 --> 00:07:05.367 North. appealed their property valuation and the settlement 00:07:05.367 --> 00:07:14.367 was reached on that. Uh, at this time, we are The Appeal 00:07:14.367 --> 00:07:20.233 summary was sent out to the council members, I believe on 00:07:20.233 --> 00:07:23.467 Thursday the 24th, or documentation that the 00:07:23.467 --> 00:07:26.233 assessor’s office has received from property owners, as well 00:07:26.233 --> 00:07:30.467 as our recommendation changes on that for your review prior 00:07:30.467 --> 00:07:37.300 to this meeting tonight. In the instance for appeal A1. The 00:07:37.300 --> 00:07:40.667 residents of 8328 Fairfield Road North. We are here this 00:07:40.667 --> 00:07:45.900 evening to present their case before the board and uh. Take a 00:07:45.900 --> 00:07:49.367 moment to invite them to come up. To speak on their behalf if 00:07:49.367 --> 00:07:58.734 they wish. To readdress the board. I think we’re asking 00:07:58.734 --> 00:08:03.000 folks to limit it to 3 minutes. Was that the suggestion? OK. 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:10.900 Yeah. Thank you. Hi, I’m Kevin Holler, and I live at 83. 28 00:08:10.900 --> 00:08:13.367 Fairfield Road, Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, and that’s my wife 00:08:13.367 --> 00:08:19.000 Valerie. And I’d just like to say that uh um I appreciate you 00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:23.300 working late today and uh. I spent my day today working on 00:08:23.300 --> 00:08:28.033 setting stone on the new fire department building in Idina. 00:08:28.033 --> 00:08:31.200 And I know it takes a lot of tax dollars to build such a 00:08:31.200 --> 00:08:37.100 structure. But what I’m asking is that those tax dollars are 00:08:37.100 --> 00:08:44.667 Gathered in a more equitable manner. And so I briefly want 00:08:44.667 --> 00:08:49.533 to address the use of the map factor and the challenges Of 00:08:49.533 --> 00:08:54.233 the mass appraisal method. Uh, especially when applied to 00:08:54.233 --> 00:08:59.567 unique and uh outlier homes like ours. The map factor is 00:08:59.567 --> 00:09:02.200 supposed to make adjustments based on neighborhood market 00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:07.300 trends. But in practice, it’s part of a mass appraisal system. 00:09:07.300 --> 00:09:14.100 These systems by nature aren’t precise. They rely on formulas 00:09:14.100 --> 00:09:18.300 and averages that work best when homes are uniform and 00:09:18.300 --> 00:09:22.166 sales are consistent. But our home is not typical for the 00:09:22.166 --> 00:09:27.500 neighborhood. It’s newer Has different features and doesn’t 00:09:27.500 --> 00:09:33.800 match the surrounding homes. Because of this, the mass 00:09:33.800 --> 00:09:38.033 appraisal can lead to inaccurate values. And that’s 00:09:38.033 --> 00:09:42.767 exactly what we’re seeing here. Even though the assessor says 00:09:42.767 --> 00:09:48.867 the map factor is applied uniformly. It can produce 00:09:48.867 --> 00:09:53.000 inconsistent results even between similar homes. And 00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:57.233 there’s no transparency on exactly how it’s calculated. 00:09:57.233 --> 00:10:02.567 Making it hard for homeowners to verify or challenge it. In 00:10:02.567 --> 00:10:09.500 short, mass appraisal. is known to make heirs. Especially for 00:10:09.500 --> 00:10:13.800 unique properties. That’s why the Department of Revenue 00:10:13.800 --> 00:10:19.634 allows appeals like what’s happened here. The map factor. 00:10:19.634 --> 00:10:24.000 Inflated our value beyond What’s supported by sales of 00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:27.634 larger or more updated homes and stronger neighborhoods. 00:10:27.634 --> 00:10:35.734 Thank you. Hi, I’m Valerie Holler, 8328 Fairfield Road, 00:10:35.734 --> 00:10:39.900 Brooklyn Park, and thank you for your time, um, I trust that 00:10:39.900 --> 00:10:42.800 you had the opportunity to take a look at all of the materials 00:10:42.800 --> 00:10:47.467 that I sent, they were pretty extensive, and they were also 00:10:47.467 --> 00:10:52.900 images, um, and The um Assessor’s report is riddled 00:10:52.900 --> 00:10:57.100 with errors. Just to point out a couple, um, we have one 00:10:57.100 --> 00:11:02.900 egress window, the assessor said, we have 2. we have a back 00:11:02.900 --> 00:11:10.367 hall with no built-ins, the assessor said we have 2. there 00:11:10.367 --> 00:11:16.767 is the uh so-called vaulted ceiling, it’s 7.5 ft high. So 00:11:16.767 --> 00:11:21.000 it’s riddled with errors, um, and I don’t have a, a speech 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:25.000 prepared here, but I do have um a couple of things I wanted to 00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:28.000 talk about. You might wonder why I selected the homes that I 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:33.834 had when I put the, a couple of homes in these appeals. Um, the 00:11:33.834 --> 00:11:37.133 first one was over in Edinburgh. I have, we have friends over 00:11:37.133 --> 00:11:40.767 there and I saw this beautiful house and I wondered, I wonder 00:11:40.767 --> 00:11:43.500 what that’s assessed for, and I, I quite frankly, I was shocked 00:11:43.500 --> 00:11:47.800 that it was assessed for a lower value. than our home. Um, 00:11:47.800 --> 00:11:52.133 and then I was scanning the Hennepin County map. Um, 00:11:52.133 --> 00:11:56.367 recently, in, in the new information, one of the things 00:11:56.367 --> 00:12:01.133 that I, um, shared was a house on the river, and that one I 00:12:01.133 --> 00:12:07.000 had just seen it had gone down in value, the estimated market 00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:10.734 value by the assessors as it had gone down in value, a 00:12:10.734 --> 00:12:13.033 percentage, I don’t remember the exact percentage, but it’s 00:12:13.033 --> 00:12:19.233 in the documents that you have. And yet our property has gone 00:12:19.233 --> 00:12:23.634 up 7.2% in a year. It’s the only one I, I’ve given you the 00:12:23.634 --> 00:12:28.867 data there. You can see it, the numbers don’t lie. Um, and so, 00:12:28.867 --> 00:12:34.166 as, um, my husband brought out about the map factor, um, there 00:12:34.166 --> 00:12:37.900 have been problems with map factors when they’re doing mass 00:12:37.900 --> 00:12:44.834 appraisals for properties that are unlike some others. Um, I 00:12:44.834 --> 00:12:49.300 wanted to look at that map. It’s in the, it’s in Q2 00:12:49.300 --> 00:12:52.900 additional information, um, and I’ve circled our property on my 00:12:52.900 --> 00:12:56.667 picture. I think yours if you have it in color, it’s in blue, 00:12:56.667 --> 00:13:02.500 but our property value went up from 510 to 546, I think it 00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:08.367 says, and um we’re asking for a reassessment all the way down 00:13:08.367 --> 00:13:12.100 to $450,000 because that’s what our realtor has said that’s 00:13:12.100 --> 00:13:15.934 what the data shows. So what we’re asking is that you look 00:13:15.934 --> 00:13:21.166 at those data or look at all of that data and take all of that 00:13:21.166 --> 00:13:24.467 data into consideration and reduce the estimated market 00:13:24.467 --> 00:13:29.233 value of our property. Um, and I was wondering if you had any 00:13:29.233 --> 00:13:37.200 questions for us. Can you, can you give me the address again? 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:41.000 Sorry. 8328 Fairfield Road, Brooklyn Park. OK. And I, I 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:44.767 have put pictures of the egress, we had one egress window, and, 00:13:44.767 --> 00:13:47.500 you know, I put, I gave you pictures of all of the things 00:13:47.500 --> 00:13:50.100 that, you know, the upstairs bathroom, it adds vinyl 00:13:50.100 --> 00:13:54.200 flooring. The assessor said it was tile. We don’t have 00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:59.200 wainscoting, so it’s just um. brings one to question. What’s 00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:02.300 really going on here. We also in the in the garage attic, 00:14:02.300 --> 00:14:07.634 it’s not, it’s not some attic you can go into. Um, so. So 00:14:07.634 --> 00:14:10.867 anyway, I have, those are the things that I had to share this 00:14:10.867 --> 00:14:14.033 evening, so I hope that you will take this into 00:14:14.033 --> 00:14:18.233 consideration and Um, reassess or whatever the correct term is, 00:14:18.233 --> 00:14:21.734 I don’t know, reduce the estimated market value. Thank 00:14:21.734 --> 00:14:26.233 you. So thank you for that. Mr. so Mr. Anderson, I guess if we 00:14:26.233 --> 00:14:31.033 can get um an understanding of the timeline necessary in terms 00:14:31.033 --> 00:14:34.400 of making these decisions, uh. And then kind of the the city’s 00:14:34.400 --> 00:14:38.500 thoughts on that particular property as it stands. And then 00:14:38.500 --> 00:14:41.767 I guess uh, you know, uh, board members, if you had any 00:14:41.767 --> 00:14:47.233 questions, please let me know. So the, but You’re questioning 00:14:47.233 --> 00:14:52.367 the timeline on the appeal or no, yeah, in terms of um. I 00:14:52.367 --> 00:14:57.467 think They’re saying, I’m, I’m looking at as the top property, 00:14:57.467 --> 00:15:01.000 right? So do we need to, regarding them, do we need to 00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:04.400 make a decision today regarding them or is it something they 00:15:04.400 --> 00:15:07.900 can do for the research into or what I just kind of want to 00:15:07.900 --> 00:15:12.734 understand the various options that are available. So we have 00:15:12.734 --> 00:15:18.634 You can have the You print on the purpose, you don’t. You. of 00:15:18.634 --> 00:15:25.266 the No. OK. That’s OK. So essentially tonight, this 00:15:25.266 --> 00:15:28.734 evening, the purpose of that would be to make a make a 00:15:28.734 --> 00:15:34.033 decision on that with to lower the value to increase the value 00:15:34.033 --> 00:15:38.367 or to retain the value of the assessment year. Uh, a lot of 00:15:38.367 --> 00:15:41.734 the information that they pointed out earlier, it’s not 00:15:41.734 --> 00:15:45.300 actually a factor that we take into account in valuation, the 00:15:45.300 --> 00:15:48.367 number of egress windows are not anything that’s taken into 00:15:48.367 --> 00:15:52.934 consideration. The vast majority of it is done through 00:15:52.934 --> 00:15:57.567 your overall square footage. And quality of finish on that. 00:15:57.567 --> 00:16:02.834 Also taking a look into account. The property does have a 00:16:02.834 --> 00:16:09.834 detached 2 car garage that has a 3/4 bathroom. In that 00:16:09.834 --> 00:16:14.100 detached garage as well. So overall there’s a 4 car stall 00:16:14.100 --> 00:16:21.033 total garage on this property. The Other items. recall 00:16:21.033 --> 00:16:22.900 anything. The assessor who actually did the inspection is 00:16:22.900 --> 00:16:25.100 here this evening, so is there anything else that you can 00:16:25.100 --> 00:16:33.467 think of to point out? OK, like I said, the detached garages. 00:16:33.467 --> 00:16:37.867 Sure. So and a lot of the, they mentioned the landscaping of 00:16:37.867 --> 00:16:41.300 that nature. It’s also not anything that takes into 00:16:41.300 --> 00:16:43.166 consideration for evaluation purposes. It essentially makes 00:16:43.166 --> 00:16:46.734 the property look more appealing from the street view. 00:16:46.734 --> 00:16:51.033 The reason for the adjustment is because prior year there was 00:16:51.033 --> 00:16:55.767 a 17% depreciation placed onto the property. That was updated 00:16:55.767 --> 00:17:00.767 this year to 10%. To a 10% depreciation, that 7% change is 00:17:00.767 --> 00:17:03.834 also a factor in taking into account a larger bump. If you 00:17:03.834 --> 00:17:10.166 will, in that valuation. The successor’s office have, as we 00:17:10.166 --> 00:17:12.834 mentioned in the documentation sent out last week. We 00:17:12.834 --> 00:17:16.567 recommend that no change for the valuation on there. 00:17:16.567 --> 00:17:19.767 Whatever your decision is tonight. The property owners 00:17:19.767 --> 00:17:23.500 still have the opportunity to go to the county board for 00:17:23.500 --> 00:17:26.400 Hennepin County as well, should they wish to do that. Yeah, so 00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.367 that was gonna be my follow up that this just so folks know 00:17:29.367 --> 00:17:32.667 they can go to the county for that appeal if we were to make 00:17:32.667 --> 00:17:38.367 a particular decision, so. All right. All right, thank you. Uh, 00:17:38.367 --> 00:17:44.867 did you? OK. Um, chair, uh, not chair but uh board member, uh, 00:17:44.867 --> 00:17:49.166 Paige. That’s good for the future. I’m kidding. Um, I just 00:17:49.166 --> 00:17:52.000 want you to know, I just want to put commentary. I drove 00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:54.100 right after the last one I drove by, I did all the 00:17:54.100 --> 00:17:57.100 research, um, and I’m not sure that you’re aware, but there 00:17:57.100 --> 00:18:02.100 are two properties that were almost 15%, um, and I, the 00:18:02.100 --> 00:18:07.300 market is so hot, you’re in a highly desirable area. I 00:18:07.300 --> 00:18:09.467 couldn’t find supporting information to reduce, and I 00:18:09.467 --> 00:18:12.634 worked really hard to go through everything and some of 00:18:12.634 --> 00:18:17.100 the things you’re looking for selling, compensating factors, 00:18:17.100 --> 00:18:19.567 and then assessing. Compensating factors. So 00:18:19.567 --> 00:18:22.400 they’re two different, right? The market drives with the 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:29.166 market and, and right now, I, I think you would I think Your 00:18:29.166 --> 00:18:31.834 realtor would be doing a disservice if you went with the 00:18:31.834 --> 00:18:35.000 value that you’re listing here because your home appears in 00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:37.367 the market right now to be worth so much more. So I just 00:18:37.367 --> 00:18:40.900 want you to know, we did, I did the due diligence. I went 00:18:40.900 --> 00:18:44.166 through all those properties. I think I looked at 27 properties. 00:18:44.166 --> 00:18:47.900 I drove by your home. I compared it to the recent sales, 00:18:47.900 --> 00:18:51.667 the pendings, um, I think there were 4 that went into sold 00:18:51.667 --> 00:18:54.834 since the last meeting that supported a higher value for 00:18:54.834 --> 00:18:58.133 you, so the market is still very strong, um, and I wasn’t 00:18:58.133 --> 00:19:03.533 able to based on your data. Um, challenge what the assessor did. 00:19:03.533 --> 00:19:05.834 So I just want to share that with you from my personal 00:19:05.834 --> 00:19:09.667 experience. I don’t know what you’re, I don’t think we’re 00:19:09.667 --> 00:19:12.734 having a conversation. I’m just giving commentary for you. 00:19:12.734 --> 00:19:19.467 Thank you. All right, thank you. Were there, um, any other folks 00:19:19.467 --> 00:19:23.800 that wanted to, that we’re gonna go speak or. For this 00:19:23.800 --> 00:19:27.467 hearing? Not in regards to this parcel, no, we to any other 00:19:27.467 --> 00:19:30.033 persons. Yeah, I was saying so I would recommend making a 00:19:30.033 --> 00:19:32.200 motion on this parcel to move on to the next one, do the same 00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:36.900 thing, and then the remainder ones are a bulk, if you will. 00:19:36.900 --> 00:19:44.033 Sorry. So, yeah, I’m in, I mean, I’m inclined to keep it the 00:19:44.033 --> 00:19:47.834 same based on the information I’m hearing, you know, from 00:19:47.834 --> 00:19:51.100 various sources, um. But I, I guess my question then because 00:19:51.100 --> 00:19:53.133 what we have in front of us is a motion, right? It says 00:19:53.133 --> 00:19:55.634 basically accept the city assess valuation 00:19:55.634 --> 00:19:59.467 recommendations, but that’s for all, all of these, right? This 00:19:59.467 --> 00:20:06.367 whole list. Correct. Right. So that’s what one are present and 00:20:06.367 --> 00:20:09.133 a2 would also potentially be present. And they are the ones 00:20:09.133 --> 00:20:17.100 that would be to contest the Valuation A 3 through A 16 on 00:20:17.100 --> 00:20:21.667 the screen here omitting a few are either continuously working. 00:20:21.667 --> 00:20:26.567 On the valuation or have refused entrance to the 00:20:26.567 --> 00:20:30.900 property. So we haven’t either been able to get into the 00:20:30.900 --> 00:20:35.233 properties to view it, one way, shape, or form. Or we are 00:20:35.233 --> 00:20:40.000 continuing to work with them up to the county board to reach an 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:41.734 agreement on valuation. Just haven’t done that at this point. 00:20:41.734 --> 00:20:47.734 And I’m, I’m not seeing a 2 here, so. Pardon? A 2, I’m not 00:20:47.734 --> 00:20:52.000 saying here. Right. So I think we would just go ahead and move 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:58.166 forward with the motion then. I just want to make sure we’re on 00:20:58.166 --> 00:21:02.467 the same page. Make the motion for a one. Is what I would 00:21:02.467 --> 00:21:06.934 recommend or to accept it. To accept. I, I guess maybe I’m 00:21:06.934 --> 00:21:11.500 confused on this one. So just one second. So we have, you 00:21:11.500 --> 00:21:17.100 know, 81 through B6 listed, right on, uh, D1, basically 00:21:17.100 --> 00:21:20.467 this motion to accept the city assessor’s valuation 00:21:20.467 --> 00:21:24.400 recommendations, right for the board and so I guess we’re just 00:21:24.400 --> 00:21:28.033 voting to accept all of these, which are no change. Or are you 00:21:28.033 --> 00:21:34.000 saying we’re gonna go by, we’re gonna look at, yeah, OK. I just 00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:37.200 traditionally in in years past, the property owner is present, 00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:39.767 make the motion with the property owner there and send 00:21:39.767 --> 00:21:43.734 it under the bulk situation. Oh, OK. I mean, we can do that. I 00:21:43.734 --> 00:21:47.867 just feel like they’re gonna be included with everybody else, 00:21:47.867 --> 00:21:51.634 so, um, Mr. Chair, uh, I, I think you’re actually gonna be 00:21:51.634 --> 00:21:55.834 going to item D1, which that, that is one motion to accept 00:21:55.834 --> 00:21:59.033 this assess his evaluation on. Recommendations and that does 00:21:59.033 --> 00:22:02.367 include a one and includes all the A’s. So I think you can 00:22:02.367 --> 00:22:05.000 move to D and the property owner’s present. So if you make 00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:08.033 one motion for all of them. I think you’ll understand what 00:22:08.033 --> 00:22:16.100 the motion is. OK. So, that, that was what I was saying is 00:22:16.100 --> 00:22:19.033 that, uh, they’re all on the same one and so we were making 00:22:19.033 --> 00:22:21.634 D1 and that would just include everyone. So I don’t know if 00:22:21.634 --> 00:22:25.300 you, did you have a statement or no? OK, so I would just say, 00:22:25.300 --> 00:22:29.467 I’ll go ahead. So we’re all on the same page with this. And 00:22:29.467 --> 00:22:32.634 I’ll make the motion to accept the city assessor’s valuation 00:22:32.634 --> 00:22:39.000 recommendations. All right, so Moshe was made by myself, uh, 00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:42.467 Chair Winston, and then seconded by a board member Page, 00:22:42.467 --> 00:22:49.834 although we need a roll call. Yes. We’re voting on item D1, a 00:22:49.834 --> 00:22:58.300 board member Erikson. Board member Jean. OK. Board member 00:22:58.300 --> 00:23:05.166 Glenowski, board member Page. Board member McGarvey. I Uh, 00:23:05.166 --> 00:23:09.900 Chair Winston. The motion passes. 6 yes votes, 0 no votes. 00:23:09.900 --> 00:23:15.500 All right, thank you, and I, if I could just so the record’s 00:23:15.500 --> 00:23:21.467 clear that that motion was on parcels A1 appeals A1 through A 00:23:21.467 --> 00:23:24.567 16 and B4 and B6. That’s, that’s what I have in front of 00:23:24.567 --> 00:23:26.767 me. So that’s, that was the confusion. I, I thought I was 00:23:26.767 --> 00:23:29.767 being asked to vote on just one, but I had all of them in front 00:23:29.767 --> 00:23:33.100 of us. So, so we’re on the same page with that and that’s what 00:23:33.100 --> 00:23:36.634 that motion accomplished. So, um, I know y’all showed up. I 00:23:36.634 --> 00:23:38.233 apologize that we couldn’t necessarily do that, but I 00:23:38.233 --> 00:23:42.567 think we are, we have to stay kind of in line in line with Um, 00:23:42.567 --> 00:23:45.400 the assessors criteria, so I know there’s a different 00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:47.934 criteria for selling or or buying, however you look at it, 00:23:47.934 --> 00:23:51.634 and then there’s one that the, the county and then we use as a 00:23:51.634 --> 00:23:55.367 city in our our assessors use, and we have to stay, uh, within 00:23:55.367 --> 00:23:58.100 the lines of that. Otherwise we could cause some issues not 00:23:58.100 --> 00:24:00.767 only for us as a city, but for the whole system in terms of 00:24:00.767 --> 00:24:04.467 how it works and just some equity and fairness issues as 00:24:04.467 --> 00:24:08.166 well. Um, but thank you for coming. Um, and then, so if we 00:24:08.166 --> 00:24:15.800 want to go to D2, certainly, uh. A2 is property address is 7335 00:24:15.800 --> 00:24:24.734 Zane Avenue North. The 2025 market value was 2,700,500. Uh 00:24:24.734 --> 00:24:29.634 And we just vote to accept that one with, I think the mayor’s, 00:24:29.634 --> 00:24:37.533 the chairs that go to item D2 D as in Delta 2, correct? So D2, 00:24:37.533 --> 00:24:41.767 so D2, just so we’re on the same page is gonna be approval 00:24:41.767 --> 00:24:45.100 evaluation agreements between April 15th, April 28th, file, 00:24:45.100 --> 00:24:49.233 reviewed, agreement reached between owner and assessor for 00:24:49.233 --> 00:24:52.634 2025 value change. So that’s gonna be a pill numbers A9, B5, 00:24:52.634 --> 00:24:58.867 B 8, and B9. is what I have in front of me. All the other ones 00:24:58.867 --> 00:25:02.634 we voted on, those were the ones with no change. Now we’re 00:25:02.634 --> 00:25:05.000 voting on the ones that have some adjusted market value. 00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:13.367 Very good. So these are D2 These are files that were 00:25:13.367 --> 00:25:16.500 reviewed, inspected, and agreement reached between the 00:25:16.500 --> 00:25:21.300 property owner and assessment for the 2025 valuation. Those 00:25:21.300 --> 00:25:34.634 parcels are. Addres uh 7347 Zane Avenue. The original 00:25:34.634 --> 00:25:42.100 market value was 246,200. After inspection and correction, the 00:25:42.100 --> 00:25:51.367 adjusted value is 2,420,400. Appeals and the B5 at address 00:25:51.367 --> 00:25:56.734 7208, Idaho Avenue North. The original assessment value is 00:25:56.734 --> 00:26:03.500 3,650,600. The recommended adjusted value is 337,000. 00:26:03.500 --> 00:26:12.800 Appeal be 8. Address 1400 92nd Avenue North. Real values 00:26:12.800 --> 00:26:22.734 421,000. The recommended adjustment value is 389,500. 00:26:22.734 --> 00:26:29.567 And address 6941 105th Trail North. The original market 00:26:29.567 --> 00:26:34.734 value was 6,630,300. The recommended adjustment value 00:26:34.734 --> 00:26:38.200 was 6,340,900. And again, these are all parcels of the 00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:41.667 assessment staff have been able to inspect and make corrections 00:26:41.667 --> 00:26:44.166 adjustment on, on the particular field cards and 00:26:44.166 --> 00:26:46.367 those have resulted in the valuation adjustments, we would 00:26:46.367 --> 00:26:50.533 recommend those changes to the board. OK. And we don’t have 00:26:50.533 --> 00:26:54.233 anybody in the audience who’s gonna that wants to speak or 00:26:54.233 --> 00:26:56.667 Push against that. I just want to make sure so everybody has a 00:26:56.667 --> 00:27:01.233 chance. OK. All right, so are there any questions from 00:27:01.233 --> 00:27:05.200 council members or board members? If that’s the case, 00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:10.266 then I’ll go ahead and make the motion to approve. The 00:27:10.266 --> 00:27:14.533 evaluation agreements between April 15, 2025 and April 28, 00:27:14.533 --> 00:27:17.734 2025. Is there, all right, so the motion was made by myself, 00:27:17.734 --> 00:27:21.867 a chair, uh, Winston, seconded by board member Kloanowski. Uh, 00:27:21.867 --> 00:27:26.367 we will need a roll call. OK, you’re voting on item D2, uh, 00:27:26.367 --> 00:27:32.867 board members young. Bye. Board member Klenowski. Board member 00:27:32.867 --> 00:27:41.166 page. Board member McGarvey. Right. Board member Erikson. 00:27:41.166 --> 00:27:48.100 Chair Winston. I motion passes with 6 yes votes, 0 no votes. 00:27:48.100 --> 00:27:55.166 All right. Thank you. Uh, and the next. It says approval of 00:27:55.166 --> 00:27:58.834 additional appeals received between April 24, 2025, and 00:27:58.834 --> 00:28:04.166 April 28, 2025. Correct. There was only one individual who was 00:28:04.166 --> 00:28:09.000 part of the settlement on there, which was prior D2 motion B 00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:13.200 appeal B 9. They were the individuals that were. Listed 00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:19.233 on that, on D3, aside from that one, there were no further 00:28:19.233 --> 00:28:22.300 appealings or individual property owners contesting the 00:28:22.300 --> 00:28:24.367 evaluation between that time frame. OK. There’s nothing to 00:28:24.367 --> 00:28:29.367 make a motion on at that point. Wait, so you’re saying we do, 00:28:29.367 --> 00:28:33.634 we do need emotion on this one. There no, there’s there’s an 00:28:33.634 --> 00:28:36.900 emotion needed on this one. OK, that makes more sense. OK. All 00:28:36.900 --> 00:28:42.667 right. So then I think we can um Are there any, any closing 00:28:42.667 --> 00:28:45.934 remarks or the only other slide is just the eels that were 00:28:45.934 --> 00:28:47.734 withdrawn between that there’s a motion on that, but just for 00:28:47.734 --> 00:28:55.467 records. That the property owner at 10129 Ewing Lane 10703 00:28:55.467 --> 00:29:00.166 Jersey Cord North 7824 Noble Avenue North, 8529 Inverness 00:29:00.166 --> 00:29:03.467 Lane North. All those individuals spoke with the 00:29:03.467 --> 00:29:06.634 assessment office or determined that they wish to withdraw 00:29:06.634 --> 00:29:10.934 their appeal for this year. OK. I believe that is. All that I 00:29:10.934 --> 00:29:15.767 have. All right, wonderful. All right, so we can go ahead and 00:29:15.767 --> 00:29:18.367 thank you for um the presentation. Thanks for folks 00:29:18.367 --> 00:29:21.500 who showed up. I know it’s not an easy process, um, and then 00:29:21.500 --> 00:29:25.467 we’ll go ahead and adjourn that meeting, um, and then we’re 00:29:25.467 --> 00:29:28.634 gonna head, I’ll give everybody about 2 minutes, uh, and then 00:29:40.900 --> 00:29:45.734 meeting, I’ve been asked by the county to make a formal motion 00:29:45.734 --> 00:29:49.100 to adjourn, um, the hearing. So if we can just have, I, I’ll 00:29:49.100 --> 00:29:54.767 make the motion, uh, a motion to, um, To officially adjourn 00:29:54.767 --> 00:29:57.500 the assessors meeting or the whatever the annual assessors 00:29:57.500 --> 00:30:01.734 meeting, uh, or hearing.
