Property valuations represent the work efforts of the County Assessor's office from 1991. Although 1 the City Council does have authority to modify these valuations, changes cannot be more than 1% of the total gross values within the community. Values set by the local board are forwarded to the county for them to conduct a county -wide assessment hearing to ensure that each of the cities /townships are equalized. All counties must submit their values to the Commissioner of Revenue who is to verify that equalization exists between all counties in the state. The Commissioner must finish this work before October so that those equalized values can be used by the auditor in calculating taxes payable in the following year. I have attached information from the Handbook for Minnesota Cities regarding property taxation which may be of help to Council members. Also attached is a blank form to enter citizen comments. It is recommended that the procedures used in previous years be followed again this year, 1 i.e: Persons wishing to speak be informed of the necessity to sign -in in the back 1 of the room (a sign advising citizens to do such will be at the entrance door and forms will be on the rear counter). 1 The Council should announce its intent to listen to each person, but that no responses are anticipated this evening. Prior to closing the Board of Equalization and Review meeting, the Council will instruct the Assessor's office to review each comment received and to make a recommendation back to the Board for their next meeting. This closing procedure should include 1 announcing that the Board will review and take final action on citizen concerns /Assessor recommendations at a special meeting on May 11, 1992. isa N PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 1 .1 Mayor and City Council April 20, 1992 Page 2 ' - Persons not wishing to speak, but wishing to have their values reviewed, can do so by filing out a "Request for Review" form located on tables outside the Council Chambers. 1 This could be another big attendance year. Taxes increased an average of 18% (the city portion decreased for most owners). Western Hills, my neighborhood, was reviewed last ' year so those owners saw the biggest increase, i.e. Betty Eidam up 50 %, Jean Meuwissen up 75 %, and mine up 100 %. The fact is that that neighborhood has not been adjusted for many years and should have been taxed at a higher level for several years.

How could our property value increase almost $30,000 in a one year period? This is unconscionable in our estimation. We have lived here for nearly 30 years and have raised our family in this ' home. It is essentially the same home today as it was when we purchased it in 1964 and it certainly is the same home this year as it was a year ago. 1 There must surely be some mistake and would ask that it be corrected.

Ur K,. n SSE Chairman and Members of the Board: ' The above referenced property has been valued at $570,000. That valuation is grossly over the current market value of the property. As you are no doubt aware, the market for large homes in the Twin Cities has suffered a severe collapse in the last two years. The comparables we will cite clearly demonstrate that market values are currently well below what they were a year or two ago. On the basis of current market values, the valuation of this property should be no greater than $465,000. 1 This appeal is not made lightly. We are very much aware of the financial problems facing many of the government agencies which receive their funding through real estate taxes. Not withstanding that, however, the current valuation is so outrageous that we feel compelled to appeal. We will not attempt to mislead the board. When this house was built it cost more than the value we claim is now appropriate. If we were to attempt to sell it, we would hope to realize a sales price greater than that amount. The current realities of the market place, however, make those prospects very remote. It is, of course, the current market value that must determine the valuation for real estate tax purposes. The comparables tell the tale of how depressed the market actually is. • Comparable Number One: 7640 Crimson Bay Road ' • Parcel #25.2610040 This property is a solid direct comparable. It is right 1 next door. It is approximately one year older than our home, and was first valued by the assessor at $530,000. Upon appeal, the Board properly reduced the valuation to $464,900. It remains at that value today. This comparable property is of similar or superior construc- tion. It has a brick facing which our home does not, Board of Review April 11, 1992 Page Two and it is located on a 3.5 acre lot compared to our 3.0 acre lot. It is also further from the noise of highway five, and has somewhat easier access to Lake Minnewashta. ' Comparable Number Two: 7620 Crimson Bay Road • Parcel #25.2610050 This property is another direct comparable. It is two doors away. It was placed on the market in April ' of 1989 at a price of $524,900, but did not sell until September of 1991 at a price of $460,000. That property is on a superior lot. It has a level walkout lot with easy access to the main portion of Lake ' Minnewashta. Our home has a steep inclined lot which provides access to the lake only through a pond and narrow channel. This comparable is of similar con- struction and was built by the same builder. Comparable Number Three: 9061 Victoria Drive ' Eden Prairie, Minnesota This comparable has the same floor plan as our home. It was placed on the market in September of 1989 at ' a price of $519,900. It finally sold fourteen months later for $385,000. This is a whopping 26 percent reduction, and is reflective of how depressed the large home market is in the area. Comparable Number Four: Lot 10, Block 2, Boulder Point This comparable was built by L. C. Cramer as a 1989 entry in the Parade of Homes, and carried a price of $759,000. It finally sold in September of 1990 at a ' price of $619,000, an eighteen percent - $140,000 reduction. Comparable Number Five: Lot 1, Block 3, Boulder Point This comparable was built by Bruce Bren, and was com- pleted in September of 1989. It is on a wooded lake lot and is a very attractive walkout rambler. It was listed at $625,000 but eventually sold for $500,000 in March of 1991. This is a twenty percent - $125,000 reduction. 1 All of these comparables are similar to our home. The design and details are, of course, different in some respects. They ' are, however, all large, new homes built at about the same time as ours. They have suffered substantial demonstrated losses in market value. Undoubtedly ours has as well. The ' clear and undisputable facts of these comparables cannot be ignored. The assessed value of our home must be reduced to $465,000 or less to reflect the true market value. We respectfully request that the Board make that reduction. 1 Board of Review April 11, 1992 Page Three II Our appeal to reduce the valuation of our home to $465,000 is based on the clear indication through direct comparables II that the true market value is at that level. That would be the appropriate assessed value if all the properties in Carver County were assessed at 100 percent of market value. II If the average assessor's value is less than 100 percent of true market value, our home should be reduced to below $465,000 assessed value. If you have any questions, please contact us. We look for- II ward to your favorable response to this appeal. 1 1 Ver -u truly yrs, 0,a.s. e r / , c / 1 James and oan Reynolds Home Phone: 474 -7060 II 7660 Crimson Bay Road Work Phone: 733 -6362 Chanhassen, Minnesota II Chaska, Minnesota 55318 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 re- tax1.92 II 1 1 88 Cascade Circle Chanhassen, MN 55317 April 12, 1992 Board of Review ' Chanhassen City Hall 690 Coulter Drive Chanhassen, MN 55317 Re: Evaluation of Residence at 88 Cascade Circle ' Parcel # 25.5500090 Near Mountain I have received your Notice of Assessment for 1992 for the above listed residential homestead property. I believe that ' your assessment is above market value for the following reasons: 1) We have made no improvements or modifications to the residence since purchase in August 1985 ' 2) At 90% of market value, the house would have to sell for approximately $147,000. I am not aware of a comparable three - bedroom home in the neighborhood that has sold in excess of $140,000. The one exception may be the residence at 87 Cascade Circle which has had substantial improvements and additions. ' 3) I do not believe that there would be any chance whatsoever that we could sell our home for close to the assessed valuation that you have established for 1992. b I will be unable to attend your meeting on April 20th.

Property ID 4989 250040900 Gentlemen: ' Since I will be out of town at the time of your Bd. of Review I am appealing by letter. I wish to appeal the assessed market value an 6 acres of barren ' land which jumped from 68,000 to 118,300 in just 1 year, thus raising my taxes on this property by twee $3,500.00. ' A gradual increase in taxes over a period of time we can understand, but such a drastic increase puts us in financial hardship. We are both retired and therefor on a fixed income and cannot simply absorb this unpredictable hardship. Market value on properties surrounding this property were not raised.

I was in residence in the property in January, as required, and was eligible for the homestead property classification. 1 Unfortunately, I have been separated from my wife, Marsha for over two years, and was in the process of filing for divorce in December. The filing was to occur in California because that is where Marsha resides and where the bulk of our assets are. However, the papers were not filed in a timely manner, and according to my attorney, my filing would become invalid if I were a resident of Minnesota (as per my filing). I called to speak to a woman at the Chanhassen tax assessor's office to explain my situation and request that the homestead exemption be suspended because I could not claim Minnesota residency. I spoke with Marsha about the technicality and she agreed to do the filing in California (we are on good terms), thus allowing me to assume the Minnesota residence status. She filed on February 27, 1992 and the divorce proceedings are occurring in California. Therefore, I am requesting that the homestead filing be reinstated as I originally filed it. I continue to reside in the Pipewood Curve house. 1 I apologize for the inconvenience caused by my situation. I hope you will understand and grant my application.

The property tax has had a drastic increase do to the increase in the estimated value of my home. The 1991 estimated value was $84,000 but for 1 some reason jumped to $124,100 in 1992.

The meeting you attended was for the u establishing the 1992 Budget, and, as such, did not include of 1 reviews of individual parcel valuations. Your letter has now become timely. Specifically, the Board of Adjustments and Appeals meeting `(review of individual parcel I values) has been set for April 20 and May 11, 1992. The April 20 meeting will be for the sole purpose of receiving citizen concern and questions in regards to their value. As I have your concerns, I you need not attend that meeting. The second meeting, May 11, will include two parts - -1) the opportunity for the assessor to respond to each of those questions, and 2) for *he Board of Equalization to I determine whether adjustments to values are warranted or not. In previous years, the assessor has been ;successful in meeting with the residents between the first and second meeting dates to verify I their concerns. These meetings have generally resulted in the owner /assessor agreeing to a value and, thus, usually only 10% to 20% of the initial concerns need to be arbitrated by the Board of 1 Equalization.
