Date
Minnesota Law requires that the County Assessor set the date for your Local Board of Appeal and
Equalization Meeting. The 2021 Otsego City Local Board of Review and Equalization Meeting has
been tentatively set for April 26th at 5:30:00 PM. If this date is agreeable or must be changed please
contact Keith at 763-6824957 or 1400-362-3667 ext. 8957 prior to February 15, 2021.
Minnesota Statues require that in order to hold a Local Board of Appeal and Equalization meeting in
2021 there must be a quorum and at least one of the voting members must have attended the approved
training. If your board has any questions or needs any information, please contact Keith.
Currently some of the Cities and Townships in Wright County held their• meetings with a starting
time of 9:OOAM, 1:OOPM & 3:OOPM. If your members are interested in starting the meeting earlier
than your tentatively scheduled time, please contact Keith. As there must be a quorum please notify
your board members with a request that they mark their calendars. More information, including a
summary of the duties and responsibilities of the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization will be
provided at a later date.
Your early completion and return of the attached tear off slip, will be appreciated and we will send
your official notice for posting as required by law. Please return to Keith Triplett, Wright County
Assessor Office, at the above address or email address or fax to our office at 763-6844553.
