MEMORANDUM
TO: Todd Gerhardt, City Manager
FROM: Greg Sticha, Finance Director
DATE: July 24, 2017 64e
SUBJ: Modification to the Rural Service District
PROPOSED MOTION
"The Chanhassen City Council approves the resolution removing properties from the Rural
Service District for the Avienda Project."
City Council approval requires a simple majority vote of City Council.
PROPOSAL SUMMARY
The properties included within the Avienda development are currently located within a Rural
Service District for taxing purposes. The city is divided into an urban service district and a rural
service district, constituting separate taxing districts for the purpose of all municipal property
taxes except those levied for the payment of bonds and judgments and interest thereon. Within
the rural service district regulations, the ratio that exists between the benefits resulting from tax
supported municipal service to parcels in the rural service district to parcels in the urban service
district is seventy-five(75). Rural service properties are therefore taxed for municipal taxes at
75 percent of rate used for other properties.
Whenever any parcel of land included in the rural service district is platted, in whole or in part,
or whenever application is made for a permit for the construction of commercial, industrial or
urban residential building or improvement to be situated on such parcel or any part thereof, or
whenever such building or improvement is commenced without a permit, the council shall make
and enter an order by resolution transferring such platted or improved parcel from the rural
service district to the urban service district.
Based on the rezoning and subdivision of the properties, these parcels shall be removed from the
rural services district in conjunction with the approval of the development. A resolution to do
this is included as part of this review.
