AGENDA ITEM DETAILS
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended by staff that the City Council approve the attached resolution adopting the
assessment roll for unpaid special charges.
ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT? IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED?
No Yes — October 10th, 2016
BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
In accordance with Minnesota Statute §429.101, City staff has prepared a proposed assessment roll for
the Unpaid Special Charges incurred prior to September 15th 2016.
City staff has notified the property owners by following statutory notice requirements: 1) has published
notice of the proposed assessment in the September 24th, 2016 edition of the Star News, which is the
City's official newspaper; and 2) has mailed notice of the proposed assessment, with the respective
notices being mailed on or before September 215t, 2016.
As required by Statute, the City Council will hold a public hearing, which is being held on October 10,
2016 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers located at 8899 Nashua Avenue, Otsego, MN 55330.
The purpose of the hearing is not for the City Council to determine if a violation has occurred. The
ability to appeal a citation is provided for as an administrative process under applicable sections of the
City Code. Property owners were previously noticed of the citation, penalty amount, and any costs
incurred by the City for abatement of the violation, and were given an opportunity to appeal the
charges. The ability to appeal the fines and charges that are now due has lapsed for each of the
properties included on the proposed assessment roll.
After the public hearing is closed, the City Council will consider, and possibly adopt the proposed
assessment rolls.
Property owners, who have such delinquencies, were notified as mentioned above, and said notice
outlined that if payment was not received by October 4, 2016, that an additional $100.00 administrative
charge would be charged to the account and that the account balance would be presented to the City
Council for assessment against their property.
Once the delinquent unpaid special charges plus the administrative charge are approved via the
attached resolution, property owners have until November 15, 2016 to pay their assessments to the
City. If payment is not received by that date, the delinquent balance plus administrative charge, and
interest of 3.00% per annum will be certified to the Wright County Auditor for collection with property
taxes payable 2017.
