I RE: Compliance with Truth in Taxation for Payable 1990
P Y
IBecause of the likelihood of changes in the upcoming legislative special session, the
I Department of Revenue is cancelling the October 1 and subsequent deadlines for
certifying your proposed levy, publishing the notice of your public hearing and the
holding of your public hearing. The tax bill establishes new dates for certifying your
Ibudgets and holding public hearings.
If you have already certified your proposed levy, then do not publish the notice of
I your public hearing. If the notice has been sent to the newspaper but not yet
published, contact the newspaper and cancel the publication of the notice.
I )r If the notice of your public hearing has already been published, then you must hold
the public hearing. However, do not adopt your final levy at the public hearing.
I At this time, the 1989 Tax Bill changes for this year only the October 1 deadline for
certifying proposed levies to mid-November. In addition, the bill changes the
November 9 deadline for certifying final levies to December 28. Under the bill, the
I publication of the notices and the public hearings would take place between mid-
November and the end of December.
IIf you have any questions, please feel free to call our office at 296-0336.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE
CITY OF CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA '
All citizens of the City of Chanhassen are invited to attend a public
hearing where the City Council will discuss the proposed property tax
levy for collection in 1990.
PLACE: Chanhassen City Council Chambers

DATE: October 9, 1989 ,
TIME: 7:30 P.M.
PROPOSAL: In accordance with state law the City of Chanhassen will
consider setting a property tax levy of :
$2,454 .444.00
This represents a sixteen percent increase over the 1989
certified levy. The City Council , in considering this levy,
cannot increase the levy over the amount shown in this
notice. They can reduce the proposed levy.
NOTE: The proposed tax levy shown anticipates continuing growth ,
of the City in new construction and property values and

1 MEMORANDUM
Mayor and City Council
ITO:FROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager
IDATE: September 25 , 1989
SUBJ: Set Public Hearing Date, 1990 Budget/Property Tax Levy
1 Cities are still operating in the dark as to whether the 1990
certification process will be governed by the 1988 laws or those
I anticipated to be passed during the last week of September. To
cover all bases , most cities are carrying out procedures outlined
in the vetoed Omnibus Tax Bill as well as those outlined in the
1 1988 legislation. Typically, the League would advise cities to
solely follow existing statutes. Ironically, that advice cannot
be given as the 1988 laws , procedurally, had major flaws which
for practical purposes made them non-existent. The Governor' s
I veto of the 1989 corrected measures also made that law non-
existent.
I Actions which are required to be taken to insure compliance
include:
1 - Recertification of Imaginary Budget/Levy: As the Council
will recall, the proposed budget and levy needed to be
adopted by August 1st and certified to the County Auditor.
Procedures to be followed by the auditor could not be
1 - followed and, accordingly nothing was done with that infor-
mation. As required by law, the City then re-certified
that amount on August 15th. The secondary set of proce-
I dures required by the auditor similarly could not be
followed. The City must now re-certify the re-
certification of mid-August. Like the previous two cer-
tifications, this certification means absolutely nothing.
IAuthorization to certify the recertification is requested.
- Budget Publication: The City is to publish the proposed
I budget prior to the official budget hearing. The Council
cannot increase over the amount shown in the publication.
Council action is not required. The Council should be
I aware that staff will carry out the publication for an
amount known to be higher than what the Council is likely

to approve. A disclaimer will be added to the bottom of
the notification advising citizens that this is solely a
staff recommendation and that such has not been considered
by the City Council.
- Budget Hearing: It is recommended that the City Council
set October 9th as the official public hearing date for
adopting the 1990 budget including certification. The pro-
posed guidelines would have the budget workshops occur in
October and November with adoption in December.
Certification of the actual budget and actual levy is anti-
cipated
to occur at that time (December 1-15) . If all else
fails, the City will have carried out the certification by
the October 10th deadline set in the 1988 statutes . It is
important that this amount represents a "no tax increase
number" . If the proposed legislation calling for the
October/November budgetary process does not occur, the City
would then still follow the October/November guidelines,
but the conclusion of that process would have to be one
which established a levy equal to or less than that adopted '
on October 9th.
Authorization to set the official public hearing date
for considering the levy associated with the 1990 budget
for October 9th is hereby recommended.
