2016 Open Book Meeting and Assessment Summary Re: ______________________________________________________________________ The 2016 Minnetrista Open Book Meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday, April 27, 2016 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers. As preparation for the upcoming Open Book Meeting, please find the enclosed data to help you. There is market data, an assessment fact sheet, procedures and sales photos with characteristics from a sample of sales throughout the city from the past few years. Summary of the 2016 Assessment Each year the estimated market values are analyzed along with sales data from the market. Appropriate adjustments for each property are made. The results of those adjustments, or property type growth, for the following property types are as follows: Residential- Off-Lake Residential- Lakeshore Townhouse Condominiums (Nike Strg) DB/Triplex Commercial/Industrial
+7.6% (1731 parcels) +5.5% (573 parcels) +15.1% (82 parcels) +5.1% (185 parcels) +9.3% (2 parcels) +1.0% (5 parcels)
There are 3564 taxable parcels in Minnetrista (up from 3424 in 2015) with a total market value of approximately $1,476,594,900 (up from $1,330,668,500 in 2015). This value increase includes $44,070,000 in new construction improvements. The overall value increase for the City of Minnetrista is +11.0%. The growth exclusive of new improvements, is +7.7%.

The Open Book appeal process Value notices will be mailed in mid to late March. Taxpayers with value or classification concerns should contact the assessor’s office. During the initial conversation the property owner may discuss their concerns and review sales information with an appraiser. The majority of the callers are satisfied after a conversation with an appraiser. If additional attention is necessary the appraiser will review the property. In all but a very few cases (perhaps 100 out of almost 300,000 parcels in Hennepin County, excluding Minneapolis) the concerns are resolved through this process, but in the case where the property owner is unsatisfied with the outcome, they may appeal to the County Board of Appeal and Equalization. The County Board of Appeal and Equalization will begin meeting on June 13, 2016. All requests for appointments at the County Board must be received before May 18, 2016. To make an appointment, taxpayers should call 612-348-7050. If you have any questions or concerns, prior to the meeting or at any time, please contact me at 612-802-7532 (county cell phone).
Sincerely,
Kevin Wynn, AMA Appraiser – Minnetrista, Spring Park, Medicine Lake and Wayzata Hennepin County Assessor Dept.

Work Session Item 3
CITY OF MINNETRISTA REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION
Subject:
Storm/Surface Water Utility Fund Discussion
Prepared By:
Brian Grimm, Finance Director
Meeting Date:
April 18, 2016
Item: Staff is bringing back some information regarding the Storm/Surface Water Fund and looking to have a discussion as to the funding of these activities and the costs of the fund also (whether operational or capital expenditures.) For example in 2015 per our preliminary financials for this fund, we brought in about $224,000 through our utility fee and had operational expenses of about $162,000. We had one time FEMA dollars stemming from our 2014 flooding of about $68,000 and about $138,000 of expenditures relating to capital activities (projects). As you can see we had roughly $300,000 for revenue and expenditure in 2015 including those one-time items. For 2016 we have about $127,000 budgeted for operating expenses and another $195,000 for CIP items. It is evident that even with adding a little to the $224,000 revenue we collected above for new properties completed in 2016 we will be at a deficit in the fund for 2016 if we do all the projects in the CIP at the amount they are budgeted for. This trend of more projects and expenditures in comparison to the revenue source is projected to continue for the next few years. You will see this in the attached financial management and CIP plan that was adopted in December 2015 for 2016. This brings us to the discussion tonight. There are basically a couple potential revenue items to discuss, taking another look at the multi-year CIP plan and looking at one time sources of funds in regards to surface water projects activity. Potential Revenue Items 1) Charge surface water utility fee to properties whether they have a structure on them or not – Right now we charge our surface water utility fee for properties if they have a structure on them. If they don’t, we do not charge the fee. There are potentially hundreds of parcels out there that this would apply to. Whether they would be parcels platted in Red Oak or Woodland Cove or Ag parcels. Using a rough estimate of 400 parcels would bring in another $35,000 a year into the fund. _____________________________________________________________________________
Mission Statement: The City of Minnetrista will deliver quality services in a cost effective and innovative manner and provide opportunities for a high quality of life while protecting natural resources and maintaining a rural character.
Could be more, or could be less once the City would do a detailed analysis of how many exactly are out there. 2) Look at using a land use classification and factor for the utility fee – Some Cities have gone to this method of charging a different factor or rate for commercial, agricultural or other types of zoned classification from residential. The rationale behind this is to match up the fact that agricultural and commercial properties contribute to storm/surface water run-off and phosphors counts for example at a higher rate than your standard residential property. If this is something the Council would want to look at during a subsequent meeting we could bring back more information regarding it. Expenditure items 1) Storm/Surface Water CIP plan – Continuing to revise our plan annually or as needed is going to be the best way to try and manage the costs in these funds. If things change where a project is deemed not necessary, as high priority or even feasible, it can be removed from or moved later into the list. Staff would continue to encourage doing projects that look to solve things more regionally and globally. Projects that have the most effect on multiple properties and areas instead of spending our limited resources on a project that may only effect one property. I have attached the current listing. One Time Revenue/Financing Sources 1) Grants – Most of the projects in our CIP plan have a very slim or no chance of qualifying for grant dollars. There is heavy competition for them region wide and the projects usually need to have a large impact on a large area. Therefore we can’t count at them at the City level and would apply for them only if we feel there is a legitimate chance that a project would qualify. 2) Transfers from other funds within the City – This would be something that staff would not recommend as an ongoing way to take care of these projects. The surface water fund is supposed to be a self-supporting enterprise fund through the utility fee. By transferring from other funds, (such as the general fund) it is in direct competition with allocating that money for additional road work, capital items, etc. Recommended City Council Action: Staff is looking to have a discussion on the Storm/Surface Water Management Fund and any feedback/direction the Council may have regarding revenue or expenditure topics/items Does Recommended Action meet City Mission Statement? x Yes Does Recommended Action meet City Goals/Priorities? x Yes
No No
