To: Mayor and City Council Members
Charlene Stevens, City Administrator
From: Robin Roland, Finance Director
Date: November 12, 2015
Subject: Deferral of Special Assessments — 2015 Pavement Management
Introduction
Two property owners have applied for the deferral of assessments for the 2015 Pavement
Management Program under the City program for deferral of special assessments for senior
citizens, disabled, and military persons pursuant to Minnesota Statute 435.193 to 435.195.
Discussion
The City Council adopted a policy in September 2008 that provides for the deferral of special
assessments for senior citizens, disabled, and military persons pursuant to Minnesota Statute
435.193 to 435.195. The established policy identifies income guidelines for determination of
hardship in order to defer payment of special assessments ($23,340 for a one person
household, $31,460 for a two person household etc.).
The option to defer the payment of special assessments shall terminate and all amounts
accumulated plus applicable interest, shall become due upon the occurrence of any of the
following events: (a) the death of the owner, provided that the spouse is otherwise not eligible
for the benefits hereunder; (b) the sale, transfer, or subdivision of the property of any part
thereof; (c) if the property should for any reason lose its homestead status; or (d) if for any
reason the taxing authority deferring the payments shall determine that there would be no
hardship to require immediate or partial payment.
The property owners both meet the qualification guidelines.
Action Requested
Adopt the resolution authorizing the deferral of special assessments on properties
15.027.21.32.0023 and 15.027.21.21.0025.
RESOLUTION NO. 15-

8010 Jergen Ave S 15.027.21.21.0025 $2405.00
have submitted the required application for the deferred payment of a special
