Don Ashworth, City Manager
DATE:

SUBJ :
Final Action on Resident Appeals, Board of Review
The city council acted to continue the hearing held on May 12 to this meeting to allow the county
assessor to review and comment on the appeals as presented orally or in writmg. I had really
hoped that Odin's office would identify those parcels where they had reached agreement with the
property owner. He did not. Accordingly, it would seem that the only alternative open to the
council at this point would be to ask if there is anyone in the audience who is in disagreement
with the revised or final recommendation of the assessor. I would recommend that the council
not act on each one individually, but at the end of presentations, that the council close the hearing
and attempt to reach a decision on each of the citizens continuing to contest their value. One
motion then consolidating the individual decisions would then be in order together with a motion
approving the assessor's recommendations on all parcels not acted on individually.

to complain about his equipment although, I feel it is not an asset either. I do not reside at this
property, my wife and I want to retain this property. We paid a huge assessment for
Minnewashta Prkwy a few years ago and are now feeling the need to forget about saving a chunk
ofland for our sons and friends to enjoy. The wild life is out of this world as we listen to power

During discussions with the property owner, information was made available to the appraiser
which had not been previously known. when reviewing the property and the overall value which
had been assigned to this parcel, I find that the total estimated market value appears to be
somewhat excessive. I reviewed sales of similar properties, and have determined that the value
attributed to the land should be adjusted. by recalculating the overall value, I have determined
that a reduction in the land value is warranted. I recommend the Board reduce the land value as
indicated below; City planning department now indicates that this parcel is unbuildable at this
time.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:I called regarding the increase of EM V
on our property. I'm disgusted with the amount of $96,700 for 1998 from $87,900 in 1997 and
$85,300 in 1996. As I explained in the phone conversation the normal maintenance of a home
built in 1978 is behind. At this time it would take out of pocket of$10,000 to make the repairs
needed for market value. One bedroom needs re-sheetrocking due to multi holes in walls.
Cupboards in kitchen need repair. Entire house needs recarpet. Basement still only 75% done.
Please reconsider amount of market value on this home.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE: The useability ofthe four season porch
is greatly hindered in the winter months due to the heaving of the porch footings. Water under
the footings, when it freezes, pushes up the footings which push the porch up several inches.
This heaving has broken the latches on a few porch windows. The slanting porch floor makes
the porch doors unable to open sufficiently enough to gain access to the porch from the house.
The roof of the porch also pushes into the 2nd floor exterior wall and has pushed the master
bedroom window slightly inward. I request a review of my property value in light of these
circumstances.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:ln 1989 I put $16,000 into an addition
and you people bumped my market value $33,500. That is absurd but history from 1991-1995
the market value has remained somewhat consistent. ($104,700-1991 and $109,900-1995) but
the increase from $109,900 in 1995 to $137,200 in 1998 is completely unacceptable! I have
done nothing to my home in the past seven years and you think the value has increased $33,500!?
No way! The house across the street, a 3 BR/2 BA w/garage sold for $89,000 last summer. The
house up the block, another 3 BR/2 BNGarage albeit in better shape, just sold for $115,000.
You people are wrong and I'm either going to see logic prevail or move! In addition to similar
house selling prices I live in a neighborhood which admittedly operates like no other in
Chanhassen; Carver Beach. My neighbors are constantly violating and getting away with, city
ordinances. I've been looking at plywood siding for the past year and a half. I've complained
and was told if the permit is still open there is nothing that can be done. Stop by and look at
what I look at and then tell me I deserve a $13,000 increase.

The house at 6850 Yuma that sold for $87,5505/30/95 was in very poor condition at the time of
the sale. It is 998 sq. ft. with a detached garage. The house at 6780 Yuma that sold for $117,500
was not an arm's length transaction. After additional review of all this information, in my

being valued at $90,700. We feel this is not correct for the following

2) Side walk needs a lot of work
3) No car garage
4) Some trees need to be taken down
5) Patio deck needs replacing

is reasonable:

In reviewing these amounts, you show a 60,000 increase in value.
The only improvement made to this home was in 1993 when the driveway
was redirected (see exhibit 1) and six evergreens were planted. The
improvement was not substantial and I will continue to pay for it til
200l.
In 1993 a Real Estate appraisal was made on the property to
determine value in my divorce. All improvements had been made and the
Fair Market Value at that time was $209,000 (see exhibit 2). I think
that its safe to say that the taxable and fair market value will probably
be the same in 1998.
With the increased traffic flow on Hwy. 5, there are times when this
house is bearly marketable. As a single person trying to remain in my
home, I would appreciate any action taken to decrease the taxable market
value.

ACTION TAKEN BY ASSESSOR: Pat Stark 5/97
The subject vacant commercial lot has a legal description of Lot 1, Bock 2, Chan Haven Plaza.
(see attached Plat). The site is an irregular shape. The shape poses a development problem as to
the size of building that could be built on this site. With the help of the City's Planning
Department it was established that a 1700 to 2200 square foot building could be built on this site.
The accepted appraisal technique of residual capitalization will be used on this property. A land
residential technique is used and applied to this property as follows. The cost of an 1800 square
foot building is estimated at $117,300. The income approach on the building establishes a total
property value estimated to be $210,500. The estimated market value ofthe property is
$210,500, minus the cost of the building of $117,300 which would result in the estimated value
ofthe land of$93,200. This illustrates the land value to be $93,000.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:
The assessors records show 38,330 square feet, Schoell & Madson, Engineers,
Surveyors and Planners have calculated the size as 35,580 square feet, a difference
of 2,750 square feet.
The assessors have been overstating the size of the parcel by 2,750 square feet
for about 8 years.
The property has a long extension or leg to the east 25' wide and 554 feet long.
This leg is enC\.llllbered in the middle by a screening easement in favor of the City
of Chanhassen. The screening easement is 25' wide and 167 feet long and splits
the leg into 3 pieces, 25 X 297 on the east, 25 X 167 screen easement in the middle
and 25 X 90 on the west. This 554 square foot piece is completely unusable for any
purpose whatsoever because of the setback requirements and encumbrances.
The usable portion of the property is only 21,395 square feet or 0.49 acres.
The usable part of the property boarders on residential land and so has a setback
requirement of 25 feet on Lake Drive Fast, 25 feet on Dakota Avenue and a 50 foot
setback from the south lot line. This leaves an undesirable triangular shaped pad
for the building and parking of approximately 3,845 square feet.
An office building of 30 X 45 = 1,350 square feet, needs 6 parking stalls and
would fit.
A medical/dental office of 30 X 45 = 1,350 square feet, needs 9 parking stalls and
would probably not fit and also could never by expanded.
A retail building of 30 X 45 = 1,350 square feet, needs 7 parking stalls and would
probably not fit.
The building is so small that it does not make good sense for an investor and could
probably only be used by an owner occupant. The value should be about $25,000.00
to $30,000.00

DISTRICT Chanhassen
PARCEL ID# 25.1800280
I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:We are appealing our property tax
assessment on 8026 Cheyenne Ave., Chanhassen, MN because we do not feel that our house has
increased in value in the amount of $27,400 in the past four years. We do not feel that our house
would sell for the assessed value of $136,000. If any houses in our older neighborhood have sold
for that price, we feel that they are not split entry houses with 2 bedrooms upstairs and a small
kitchen and very little closet space. We have been told by real estate agents that these are the
disadvantages to this house and why we believe the assessed value is higher than the actual
value. We feel that our house is being assessed at the rate that the neighboring colonials are being
assessed. They seem to lack the drawbacks of a split entry and are able to sell at higher values.
We would like to have our property re-assessed considering these concerns.

Spoke with Mrs. Dorfner on 4/10/97. Gave her the address of a similar property in her
neighborhood that sold recently. She was also going to check the list price of a split entry in her
neighborhood. Mrs. Dorfner would call us back if she wanted to
pursue the appeal further. Never heard back. Recommend no change.

ACTION TAKEN BY ASSESSOR: Ann Wyse 4/18/97
An interior and exterior inspection of the property with emphasis on the drainage problems was
done on 4/17/97. The recent sales of comparable properties in the Near Mountain area were
reviewed. Based on these sales, a fair market value would be $160,000. The subject property is
assessed at $142,700 which is $17,200 less. This indicates that our estimated market value is
reasonable and allows for a loss in value due to the drainage situation. No change is
recommended.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:In 1996 my home taxes were $157,000.
Due to improvements (addition of deck) my payable 1997 taxes were increased to $158,900. I
can understand the added value and therefore the tax increase. However, I have received my
1998 notice of property estimated market value for property tax and find the market value
estimated at $170,100. This increase of$11,200 or 7.04%. There have been no additions made,
nor any improvements and I do not understand why my home is given a market value of
$170,100 after one year's period of time. I understand and support tax increases that will further
benefit the community/schools etc. But this seems excessive. I would appreciate your review of
this situation. I believe an error has been made. In 1990 I paid $2200 in taxes; today $3892, over
seven years my taxes have increased 77%! Your fair judgement and consideration will be
appreciated.

Dear Ms. Wyse,
As per our conversation nearly one month ago, regarding property
valuation, I mentioned that we were interested in filing a formal
appeal of our property valuation assessment.
Our valuation assessment in 1995 was $169,000 and for 1998 our
property is valued at $215,000. We strongly dispute that the
value of our property has increased to that extent in four short
years, with no improvements!
Please consider this our formal appeal as to the valuation of our
property located at Colonial Grove at Lotus Lake 2nd Edition, Lot
4, Block 4. The property ID #is R 25.2400170.
Would you please inform us of the next step in the appeal
process, as we look forward to resolving this matter as quickly
as possible.

ACTION TAKEN BY ASSESSOR: Craig Paulson
4/15/97
Owner purchased land for $90,000 in August 1994. Since the time of purchase, property values
have appreciated an average of 5% per year. Also, well, septic and landscaping have been added
to the property at a minimum cost of$15,000. The useability of the lakeshore is hindered by
marsh and a drainage easement area. According to the Chanhassen Planning and Zoning
Department a dock would be allowed to be built through the marsh area to the open water. The
open water is deep enough in the inlet for a speedboat to get from the inlet to the open water.
The land is not valued as high as similar lots with better access to the lake. The value of the land
is reasonable at $105,000. Appeals can only be made on the total market value. The total market
value of $361,500 is reasonable. Recommend no change. .

Subject: ADDENDUM - Reasons for Appeal of Assessed Value
· We feel the assessed value of the land is too high. Our understanding is that the
property has been designated aslakeshorellakeview property. There are extensive
wetlands (150-200ft) that make access to Lake Minniwashta difficult and expensive.
Access to the lake is restricted to a relatively shallow inlet which, during times of
historical drought, has dried up. Our view of the main lake is restricted by the angle and
considerable distance that our property lies in conjunction to the lake.
· Recreational use of the land is restricted by drainage easement which runs 200ft on the
south border of the property. The drainage easement affects only our property and the
adjacent lot 1 property.
· Our property does not have exclusive dock rights as do most other properties bordering
the lake. Our lot is required to share a dock with the owners of Lot 1 as recorded in the
records for the Crimson Bay Development and per the Chanhassen Water Resource
Dept.
· Our property lies approx 100 yards from Hwy 5. There is extensive traffic on Hwy 5
making entry & exit difficult, time consuming and at times dangerous. The entrance to
Crimson Bay Road lies directly opposite to the entrance of the Minnesota Landscape
Arboretum. The Arboretum generates considerable traffic which prohibits comfortable
access to Hwy 5. Numerous accidents have occurred on Hwy 5 at the entrance to the
Arboretum and Crimson Bay Road.
· The lot adjacent to ours, Lot 1, sold for considerably less than our land valuation _
despite having an additional acre of land vs our property. As noted above, the issues of
lake access, lakeview, recreational use of the land, the drainage easement and the
proximity to Hwy 5 influenced the ability of Lot 1 to sell for a higher price. We feel that
whatever issues that prevented that property from selling for a higher price are also
having a direct impact upon the current and future valuation of our property.

...
My wife and I dosed on our property on 3/17/97 of which we paid $ 506,000 dollars.
The PID is R25.3320240 Hesse Farm 2nd Addition Lot 024 Block 001. You should note
that we rolled in an extra $ 10,600 dollars into the purchase price to cover closing
costs which is why the purchase price was revised to read $ 516,600 dollars.
The market value or taxable base for our home located at 10460 Bluff Circle is only
roughly $ 20,000 dollars higher than our purchase price which is inconsistant with
taxable amounts on market value in other communities.
This home is the fourth we have owned throughout our marriage and we have
normally been taxed at a rate far below actual appraised value. This home had been
on the market for several years and was in very poor condition. We feel that we
deserve to receive a reduced tax rate based on the purchase price of this home on
3/17/97 which is documented in our purchase agreement and closing statement.
We strongly request that you reduce our taxes in view of the above and attached
information.
Sincerely,
Howard Lapides

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:Our property value increased 10% from
1997 to 1998 and we feel this is an excessive jump. We have made no improvements to the
property. Our property value has steadily increased in the five years we have lived here. In 5
years it has increased $50,000 and we feel that it is appraised excessively high. In reviewing the
records on our property at the Chaska Govt Center, we believe there is an error on the amount of
lakeshore we own. Your records indicate 100 ft. of shoreline - we believe it is closer to 90 ft. of
shore with the extra 10ft. belonging to the park next to our property.

During discussions with the property owner, information was made available to the appraiser
which had not been previously known. When reviewing the property and the overall value
which had been assigned to this parcel, I find that the total estimated market value appears to be
somewhat excessive. I reviewed sales of similar properties, and have determined that the value
attributed to the land should be adjusted. By recalculating the overall value, I have determined
that a reduction in the land value is warranted. I recommend the Board reduce the land value as

$67,900 and lot at $115,000. Estimated Market Value of$182,900. Then in 1996 the EMV

home is now at $89,800 and land is at $167,000. I don't see how the value could increase by
almost $22,000 when my house is 36 years old and I have made no additions to it. Also, the land
increased by a large amount.

7 StA.-
To the Carver County Assessor
I would like to Appeal my notice of Estimated Market Value and property class for property taxes for 1998.
The value of my property taxes in the past few years has been has follows:
1994 $127700
1995 $129100
1996 $135600
1997 $135600
If we average the increase over these years, it is $2650 a year increase for the market value. The 1998 market
value would be $138,900 using the calculation of $2650 increase a year. I have not done anything to improve
the value of this property at 1430 Lake Susan Hills Drive.
My neighbors at 1440 Lake Susan Hills Drive Estimated property value for 1998 is $138,250. Pete Sauderville
the owner who used to live there said he had over 2000 sf finished with new carpet and larger deck than I
have.
My address at 1430 Lake Susan Hills Drive has 1833 square feet finished. I believe that $146,400 market
value is to high for this property. Property Identification= R 25.4060490
Could you please call or write to let me know what the next step is on my appeal of the market value of
$146,400 for 1430 Lake Susan Hills Drive. My Daytime phone number is 906-2314

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:The EMV of my property went up
$96,000 in 1 year. I have not done one thing to upgrade my house so I don't know why the value
went up by $96,000. Also a similar house in my neighborhood, the Daoust residence, (which is a
lot on the lake...mine is not) has similar square footage and amenities and is valued at $411,500.
My value is $432,500 (up from $336,700 last year. Again...my property is not on the lake.

6/12/96. Our records did not include 1300 sq. ft. oflower level finish. After a telephone
conversation with the owner, I reviewed the property data, noted
the quality of the structure, checked the calculations and analyzed the recent sales for the area.
No change is recommended.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:This piece of property was purchased for
investment purposes for $10,000 in 1988. The parcel is currently unbuildable and probably
always will be unbuildable. (It has a relief creek running directly through the center ofthe
property). The estimated value went from $17,700 last year to $90,000 this year. Considering
that the land was purchased for $10,000, I believe that $90,000 is very much over valued for this
parcel.

This parcel is a 2.55 acre lot with 230 ft. of frontage on Lake Riley. It adjoins 25.4080150, the
O'Neill homestead property giving them lake access. It is used in conjunction with the residence.
A paved trail leads from the house to a developed beach
area with lawn and dockage. According to the City of Chanhassen, this lot appears to be
buildable. After further review of the data, no change is recommended.

We'd like to contest the current limited market value and
taxable market value on our home for the year 1998 in the amount of
$282,400. As the above indicates, our home has had yearly, hefty
increases in valuations and we've always agreed that the valuations
are in the ballpark and have paid our fair share. This year,
however, after investigating the real estate market, it didn't look
right. It is my belief that you arbitrarily raised the taxable
market value the maximum allowed, 10%. Your figure, based on the
latest maximum increase, has put our house in a higher price
category than I believe the market will bear. As evidence of this
please find a market value analysis and net proceeds to seller
sheet prepared for us by a realtor randomly selected out of the
Chanhassen yellow pages.
Further, attached are Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C which
are Chanhassen properties as similar in nature as we could find and
currently listed through MLS. Two of the properties have not sold
yet. I am sure you ,can take notice by virtue of your experience in
this area that usually a home sells for less than the listed price.
This is evidenced on Exhibit C where the home listed at $289,000
and. sold for $270,000. Also these homes have an additional
advantage in that they have city sewer and water, whereas we do
not.
Please note Exhibit D which is a Certificate of Real Estate
Value for a comparable home to ours right in our neighbor which
sold for $240,000.
For all of the above reasons, it is my firm belief that a
reasonable and legitimate taxable market value and limited market
value is the $256,000 that we have been at the last two years.
That the estimated market value is $260,000. I do not believe that
inflation, or any other reason can justify a $25,000 increase in

Re: Appeal of Property Valuation
Lotus Lake Estates -- Lot 2, Block 2, except the North 10' of West 44' of East 125.22'
(Street Address -- 6805 Brule Circle)
Dear Members:
We own the referenced parcel of real property and ask the Board to review the proposed increase in
its taxable market value from a 1997 value of$171,900 to a 1998 value of$182,200. Based upon
a review of the 1997 assessed taxable market values of similarly improved homes in our
neighborhood (Brule and Choctaw Circles), we believe that the tax assessor made an error of
judgment when he or she increased the 1998 taxable market value of our residential homestead
property by 6%. To be fair and equitable, the 1998 taxable market value of our home should remain
at $171,900.
As you probably know, Minnesota Statutes ~273.12 (Assessment of Real Property) requires that all
lands similarly located and improved be assessed upon a uniform basis and without discrimination.
For the last five years our home has been assessed at a value that is close or equal to its actual market
value. In contrast, our neighbors' homes have been assessed at values much lower than their market
values. The following two most recent sales of property demonstrate this:
· 6781 Brule Circle had a 1997 assessed value of$161,600 and sold in early
1997 for $200,000. The assessed value as a percent of market value is
80.5%. This home has had a lower assessed valuation than our home for the
past five years, is over 500 square feet larger than our home and sits on a
much larger, naturally wooded lot. Our home is not shielded by trees from
State Highway 101, which abuts both backyards and is slated for an
expansion which will take part of our property and diminish its value as
noise, pollution and traffice increase.
· 130 Choctaw Circle has been assessed at 80.4% of its market value -- it had
a 1997 assessed value of $200,500 and sold earlier this year for $249,000.
Additionally, other homes on our street, such as 6751 Brule Circle and 6811 Brule, have assessed
values in the range of$144,000 to 153,700 even though all homes offered for sale have sold for more
than $170,000.
While our neighbors' similarly improved homes are being assessed at values that are 80% of their
market value, our home, at the proposed assessed value, would have an assessed value that is 96%
331
of its market value which we believe to be $190,000. (Our home had an appraised value in 1993 of
$178,000. That was less than the $179,500 we paid for the home in 1991.) At a current estimated
market value of $190,000, the 1997 assessed value of $171 ,900 is still 90.5%. If our home is kept
at its present assessed value, it will still be assessed at a much higher percentage than our neighbors'
homes. Please keep our home's assessed value at $171,900 until similar properties are taxed at 90%
of their market values.
Thank you for considering our request.
Sincerely,
-:$- r-7A~

When reviewing the property and the overall value which had been assigned to this parcel, I find
that the total estimated market value appears to be somewhat excessive. I reviewed sales of
similar properties, and have determined that the value attributed to the land should be adjusted.
By recalculating the overall value, I have determined that a reduction in the land value is
warranted. I recommend the Board reduce the land value as indicated below:

This lot was purchased 1/7/97 for $130,000. The current Estimated Market Value is $120,000.
The increase in value since 1995 pay 1996 is based on the plat law. The property owner is given
a lower than market taxable value for the first three years or
until the lot is improved with a building. This was explained to the owner in a telephone
conversation. The value appears reasonable and no change is indicated.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:The assessed value ofthe new
improvements to the property ($703,700) exceeds the costs ofthose improvements by
approximately $80,000. This development (Minnewashta Landings) has only four (4) homes
built in it thus far, and one of those homes remains unsold after being on the market for nearly
two (2) years. Nothing supports an assessed value of the improvements so high above cost or
supports such a high estimated market value ($847,000) with so little market experience with the
development and that experience being somewhat negative. I believe the total assessed value is
$100,000 higher than it should be to accurately reflect the market.

This property consists of a Lake Minnewashta lot in the Minnewashta Landings subdivision that
was purchas~d by the current owners on 2/28/96 for $290,000. A one story house with a finished
walkout basement was constructed in 1996. An interior inspection
was done on 2/12/97. The estimated market value for the land is $290,000 which includes
landscaping and sewer and water hookups. The estimated market value for the building, the new
construction value, is $557,000. According to the owners, they have approximately $900,000
invested in the total property. The property next door at 3716 Landings Drive sold for
$1,050,000 on 3/29/96. It is similar in size and quality to the subject property. After reviewing
the building characteristics and calculations, the value appears reasonable and no change in value

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:The 2 BR townhomes are all essentially
the same units. The only available options were; central air, gas fireplace, and garage door
opener. I have option 1 & 3. Per phone call to 361-1960, the property at 7641 Nicholas Way is
valued at $92,900 and the property at 7645 Nicholas Way is valued at $90,900. Both of these
homes have all three options. How can my home be valued the same as my neighbors when
they have a fireplace? In addition the City of Chanhassen has a lawsuit pending against the
builder-Dean Johnson Construction for numerous code violations. Please see the enclosed report
from Encompass, Inc. How can my assessed valuation increase when the homes are not
structurally sound? The resale ability of these homes is practically non-existent.

~NOTICE OF PRE-TRIAL HEARING-<
STA TE OF MINNESOTA (City of Chanhassen) vs.
Dean R. Johnson, d/b/a Dean R. Johnson Construction, Inc.
Court File No.: T2-96-6973
RESCHEDULED TO:
Monday, April 7, 1997
9:00 a.m.
Carver County Courthouse
600 East Fourth Street
Chaska, MN 55317
For more infomlation call:
Court Administration - Criminal Division
(612) 361-1420
As you know, a pre-trial/settlement hearing regarding the above criminal action was held on
March 10, 1997. At that hearing, the attorney for Dean R. Johnson requested and was granted a 30-day
continuance. What this means is that the pre-trial has been "continued" to Monday, April 7, 1997 at 9:00
and the trial has been moved to Wednesday, June 4, 1997 at 9:00 a.m. Mark your calendars and
please try to attend one or both of these events. Our presence may have had an impact on both the court
and Defendant's counsel.
Once again, the pre-trial hearing is not a "time certain" hearing -- the first matter on the docket will
be heard at 9:00 a.m. Last time, we were the 7'h case on the docket, and it seemed to move along fairly
quickly. Again, we do not know exactly what time or order this specific matter will be heard. You should
feel free to contact the court administrator if you have questions. Again, if you do plan to attend either the
trial or the pre-trial, as many of us do, please check in at Court Administration to let them know you are
from Oak Hills - they will let the prosecuting attorney know that we are there.
In the meantime, there is something we all should be doing in preparation of these events. We
believe Mr. Johnson will be found guilty at trial of the code violations (as outlined by the City of
Chanhassen) by a jury. If that is the case, each one of us as homeowners in this development will have
the opportunity to tell the judge of the effect that the code violations have had on our lives - the court' calls
it a "Victim Impact Statement". This can be done either by a written statementlletter or orally and in
person. In the next several weeks, we should all be thinking about what we want to do in this regard and
what we would like the judge to know about our experiences. This matter has cost us all in one way or
another. Obviously, our ultimate goal is to have our buildings brought up-to-code and the damage
repaired. You may simply want to tell this to the judge. Statements will be heard or read prior to the
judge's sentencing. More information on the victim impact statements and the trial will be provided in the
near future.

SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT
Oak: Hill Townhomes

Enc. Project #96-0749

Encompass, Inc.
2850 Metro Drive, Suite 523
Bloomington, MN 55425
March 3, 1997
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 In order to update the information presented in our Preliminary Report dated July 31,
1996, the Oak: Hill Homeowners Association requested a supplemental summary of
additional findings. In addition, the purpose of this report is to clarify the causes of
the failures, list additional information obtained from various inspections, and
present the potential solutions to repair the premature deterioration of the buildings
in this complex.
2.0 OBSERVATIONS
2.1 The wooden garage door headers were found to be either rotted or of the wrong
specie of wood at a majority of the locations. During inspections on October 26 and
November 6, 1996, with representatives from the City of Chanhassen Building
Inspections Department and the contractor present, 43 garage door headers were
found to be rotted. In addition, numerous"header::; were experiencing deflections
beyond allowable, therefore, will need to be changed. .
2.2 Walls at the entrance of a significant number of units were observed to be
experiencing frost heaving. Many of these locations were reviewed during a site
inspection on February 15, 1997, with the contractor and city representatives. A
survey of all units revealed that .wall movement and cracking has occllfFed at 42
uni ts.
2.3 The roof edges of eight units were observed to be missing the code required starter
strips. This defect was observed by the city building inspector.

9;l C-
2.4 In at least one location, it was observed that no bituminous felt paper was present
beneath the shingles, i.e. the sheathing could be seen directly below the shingles.
2.5 Prior to winter weather, sump pwnps were installed by the contractor in the sump
baskets that are located in the separation corridors of the buildings. The location of
discharge was improper in most of the cases with the results of ice formation and soil
erOSIOn.
2.6 Extensive ice dams were observed on the roofs above the entries.
3.0 ANAL YSIS AND CONCLUSIONS
3.1 In general terms, the two basic causes of the extensive premature failures of the Oak
Hill townhome buildings are their design as it relates to moisture accommodating
details and numerous portions of the actual construction. It is apparent that the
original building design did not consider the effects of moisture on the facade nor
does it address how to acconunodate the removal of water from around the perimeter
of the buildings. In addition, many instances of substandard building construction
has resulted from poor workmanship by various subcontractors. -
3.2 The gable configuration of the roofing directs all of the moisture hitting the roof to
the longer sides of the building. Water from rain or melting snow on the large upper
portions of roof drains down onto an intermediate roof and then onto the flat roof
above the garages. The combined volume of water then precedes to drain to the edge
of the garage roof where it runs down the face of the siding. In some locations,
water enters the wall system in the vicinity of the handrail posts due to separation
between the membrane and wood post. Some of the water penetrates the vi.nyl
siding and saturates the gyp board sheathing behind the'siding. In numero,u5
locations at the head of the garage door opening, a vinyl siding edge bead dams the
water up which.then leaks im.o the header.and wood buck assemblage. This c~uses
the wooden buck to warp, rot and pull away from the headers. During inspections in
October and November of 1996, it was confirmed that approximately 50% of the
existing wooden headers have experienced significant rotting and will need to be
replaced.
3.3 Other areas of siding installation problems include the area in the vicinity of the
window and door heads where flashing was not installed. In addition at 'the top of
the walls of the deck railing, a waterproof cap arrangement was not provided.
Another facade problem is at the top of the brick wainscoted walls where the siding
does not properly cap the walls to prevent moisture intrusion. All these errors in
construction are causing premature deterioration of the facade of these buildings.

3.4 Due to the design of the buildings, the roofs above the entries tl~at are cold are
located below the roofs of heated space. By observation, it is likely that attic
ventilation as well as wall/ceiling insulation is inadequate. What happens is when
snow melts on the roof near the top of the building, it runs downs onto the cold roof
of the entrance ways without a source of heat below. This results in a very large
build up of ice at the edge of the entrance roofs causing deflection of the roof edge
and premature deterioration of shingles.
3.5 Excessive moisture from the roof also creates an ice problem at the base of the wall.
\Vater that drips off the roof freezes when it hits the surface of the sidewalk or
driveway. In numerous instances, water dripping from the roof has frozen the .
natural gas service into the units. The condition is a result prim<lrily of the building
design failing to recognize th~ effect of water running off the roof.
3.6 At the wall base pn the sides of the buildings, water from the entire roof system is
directed toward the entry areas of the buildings. Since there is no effective provision
for draining water away from the base of the building, the soil beneath the sidewalks
and garage aprons becomes satUrated. When the water below the concrete
slab-on-grade freezes, the slabs heave upward. This is a recognized performance
characteristic of wet soils in a cold climate.
3.7 The sequence of damage generally is as follows. Initially as the temperature drops
below freezing, water beneath the slab freezes and creates an ice lens. Water
continues to enter the soil from above, and water in the soil below the ice lens is
drawn to it by capillary action in the soil. As more water is provided to the area of .
freezing below the slab, the ice lens grows thicker. This causes the slab to be pushed
upward or as commonly referred to the slab "heaves." Due to the lack of separation
strips between the wall and slab, the movement of the slab is transferred to the walls
and they also "heave." Another factor at the Oak Hill Townhomes, is when.the
driveway/garage apron heaves, water is then diverted backward into the garage. This
water. then entcj.s the'soil along. the perimeter of the building arId .rJrthcr saturates the
soil directly below the slab-on-grades.
3.8 The critical mistake made at the entrances to the units at Oak Hill is the failure to
separate the slab-an-grade from the walls. The importance of this is the effect
heaving conc~ete is having on the proper functioning of these 10 buildings. By
inspection and survey as of February 15, 1997,42 out of the total 90 units were
experiencing significant cracking of the walls above the front door due to frost
heave. In addition, many units are experiencing large cracks in the ceiling above the
entry. Properly designed and constructed buildings do not have the multitude of
significant problems experienced by the Oak Hill Townhome buildings.

4.0 ADDITIONAL ACTIONS / RECOl\tIMENDA TIONS
4.1 It is possible that all of the roofing materials will need to be removed and reinstalled.
An inspection of the roofs is scheduled for early in the spring after the snow is off.
4.2 All concrete slab-on-grade ~djacent to building walls will need to be removed and
reinstalled with separation strips. An inspection of the depth of wall footings is
planned at selected locations to insure they are at the proper depth.
4.3 Vinyl siding and gypsum sheathing above the garage door headers will need to be
removed. The wooden headers that are rotted or of the wrong material will need to
be removed and replaced. All of the facades need to have the vinyl siding reviewed
and reattached where it is coming loose. Numerous details such as wall caps and
window/door flashing behind the vinyl siding will need to be corrected.
4.4 In order to determine the source of thermal bridging, ceiling and wall insulation
should be inspected and replaced or reinstalled where necessary. Proper roof
ventilation will need to be provided.
4.5 Results obtained from the above outlined activities will be utilized in the preparation
of the restoration plans and specifi<::ations.

4/1 0/97
During discussions with the property owner, information was made available to the appraiser
which had not been previously known. When reviewing the property and the overall value which
had been assigned to this parcel, I find that the total estimated market value appears to be
somewhat excessive. I reviewed sales of similar properties, and have determined that the value
attributed to the land should be adjusted. By recalculating the overall value, I have determined
that a reduction in the land value is warranted. I recommend the Board reduce the land value as
indicated below;

After a telephone conversation with the property owner and a previous recent inspection, I
reviewed the property data; noted the quality and condition of the structure; reviewed recent sales
for the area; recalculated the value to check for errors. After additional review of all this
information, in my opinion, the value appears to be reasonable, and no adjustment is indicated.

ADDRESS 3618 Red Cedar Pt. Rd.
CITY/Zip Excelsior, MN 55331
DISTRICT Chanhassen
PARCEL ID# 25.6600020
I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:In 1989 it was $76,500 seasonal; 1990,
$76,500, seasonal. 1991-1994 it was $103,400 seasonal. 1995, $109,800 including a $6400
improvement and it was homesteaded. 1996-$120,000 homestead; 1997-$121,100 homestead,
and 1998-proposed $124,800 homestead. I still do not have a basement under the house except
under my bedroom for the furnace, washer, and dryer. The $6400 improvement in 1995 was for
a porch deck and a ramp for me to be able to go down to the lake in the wheelchair and also so I
can use the deck.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:This is an appeal to the recent property
tax assessment ofthe residence at 3706 Hickory Road. The condition of the house is such that an
additional added value to the resident is burdensome. The residence will not bring in the
assessed value on the market because of its size and eccentricity.

ACTION TAKEN BY ASSESSOR: Craig Paulson
4/9/97
After a telephone conversation with the property owner and a previous recent inspection, I
reviewed the property data; noted the quality and condition of the structure; reviewed recent sales
for the area; recalculated the value to check for errors. After additional review of all this
information, in my opinion, the value appears to be reasonable, and no adjustment is indicated.

This letter represents our formal request for your review of our recent property appraisal for parcel numbers
R25.6800010 and R25.6800020. The first parcel is our residence the second an adjoining vacant lot.
The properties are situated at the far north end of Lotus Lake (note enclosed map). Each lot has about 80 feet
of shoreline. From the information we were able to obtain from the assessor, we are contesting the valuation
mostly on the basis of the value they placed on the shoreline. We were told that the appraised value of
shoreline on Lotus Lake runs as high as $650 per linear foot. For shoreline that was sand beach and could be
used for recreational purposes such as swimming, fishing, and boating, that would seem fair and might even
be low. The assessor has valued our shoreline at $600 per linear foot. The shore on our residence lot consists
of a dock sitting on a clearing of about 30 feet, the remainder is solid cattails. Our dock is over 100 feet in
length and has (in normal summers) approximately 12 to 18 inches of water depth at the end. It cannot be
used for swimming and in some years (like last year) the water level is not even sufficient to float a 16 foot
fishing boat. The lake bottom is muck, so deep that it is impossible to even wade in. Thus our dock remains
in year-round. From our dock we maintain a path through the weeds and Water Lilly for some 400 feet to
allow us access to the lake. That path must be maintained at an annual cost of about $400 to allow boat access
at all. (We have a DNR permit for aquatic weed control.) Our vacant lot has no dock at this time and the
shore is completely covered by cattail.
We believe that the valuation of $600 per linear foot is a gross injustice if the best lakeshore is only valued at
$650. In the past we believe our shoreline was valued at 1/2 of the value of the nicest on the lake and see no
reason for that to be changed. The assessor was not able to (or unwilling to) tell us what our lakeshore was
valued at for the past year.
In addition, we would like to point out that our home remains substantially as we bought it with the exception
of the addition we built in 1985. We have always allowed the assessor access to inspect our home. To the best
of our knowledge the assessor has used other homes which have been extensively remodeled as
"comparables" in setting our valuation. Both of the homes he gave us as having been used in setting our
value have either had significant additions or been gutted and redone. Why are they unable to understand
that a home that is not remodeled not comparable to one that had the entire inside reworked?
Finally, we would like to point out that we have a new assessor on board in the county. I am sure that he is
interested in proving his ",,'orth. Perhaps that provided a bias in the evaluation to make sure the value was
raised.
If the valuation is not changed our lots' value will be increased and incredible 58% and our house 18%. We
believe that the value of our property should not be raised more than 5%. It does us no good for the city and
county to hold the line on tax increases if the assessor can arbitrarily raise the basis upon those taxes are
figured.
Thank you for your consideration.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE: I have lived in Chanhassen since 1968.
I am 75 years old. My wife and I both are on pension, my wife had a stroke in June of 1996. We
had hoped to be able to stay in our home in our old age. But what with you raising our market
value of our home each year without any improvements done, our property tax keeps going up ,
you are forcing us out of our home. For example, in 1990 my tax was $810 and today my tax for
1997 is $1804 and next year it will go up again because you have raised my market value again.
So we have no alternative but to move.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:My estimated market value was raised
from $131,900 to $145,100. The taxable market value was raised from $86,300 to $99,500.
When I called the assessor's office the first thing they said was will you sell it for that price. My
concern is I don't mind paying my fair share of taxes, but I'm finding out everyone's property
does not increase the same percentage. A house with 2.5 acres (new) at 9821 Deerbrooke Drive,
Chanhassen had their value increased from $315,000 to $325,000. I understand they have a sales
contract to sell at over $400,000. Because of new construction my home was visited by the
assessor in 1994 and 1995. The way I understand policy, if you didn't get a building permit to
improve your property you may receive only a nominal increase in valuation until the assessor
visits you again. Unless there is a specific reason for one piece of property an increase in
valuation should be the same - not one parcel 5%, one 10%, one 15%.

This property was in the 1997 pay 1998 reappraisal area. An interior and exterior review was
done on 9/18/96. At that time a remodel project was discov~red; new windows, air conditioning,
and the conversion of a living room to a master bedroom and 3/4 bath. The submitted appraisal
was reviewed. This appraiser found three sales to compare to the subject. They are all the same
style, similar age, location and size. It is preferred appraisal practice to compare the same style
properties if sales are available. After additional review of all this data, in my opinion, the value
appears to be reasonable and no change to the Estimated Market Value is recommended. I do
recommend that the new construction amount of $8300 be changed to $5400.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:The percent of increase of 17% over last

down, the cost of living has gone up very little so I see no reason to increase my taxes to the
point where I can't even think of retiring in this home that I've lived in for 26 years. Just because
some guy down the street was lucky and sold his home for a very large amount of money doesn't
mean the rest of us can. Right now the market is very strong and interest rates are low, but what
happens next year or the next when the market is not strong and interest rates are back up. please
give this some thought and give me a break.

several years now has had less taxes per finished square foot than we have had. I have done no
improvements to the home since I bought it because I simply can't afford to. Its become
increasingly difficult to pay the taxes since I was laid off and had to change jobs due to cut
backs. After checking with three different real estate agents, they have informed me that total
finished feet does make a significant difference in price and marketability. My home has less

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:I believe that there has been a gross over
estimated market value placed on house for 1998 tax payable. There is an increase of$115,300
over the 1997 payable estimated marker value - over 33% increase. There is no way that the
property value has increased this much in one year or even since we built the house. All
surrounding properties are of much lesser value even though larger than our property, many of
them newer and completely finished. We have been surrounded with new constructing, invasion
of privacy, noise pollution, adverse environmental impact, constant construction noise, truck
traffic, and anticipate such disruptions for the next few years. Estimated market value has been
determined not by the value of the house but by the over-zealous relators and developers in the
area. Unfair comparisons between our property (actual value) and recent sales in the area have
been made. A couple years ago we refinanced our home with a professional home appraisal
made of $335,000 which I believe is a much more accurate appraisal (unbiased). We built the
house, doing all the contracting and much constructing and finishing for less than $200,000
(including land purchase $44,000 currently assessed at $92,000 -way too high!) The house has
been assessed at least $100,000 over value and may in fact been a typographical error. I would
welcome the opportunity to meet and discuss this at the earliest possible time. Please feel free to
contact me at any time.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:Request to maintain property value at
1996 level for the following reasons. Property value has been increased on my home every year
for the past five years. In 1996 my property value was increased $17,000 or 6.2%. Immediate
neighbors property value increased less than .5% on average. Two immediate neighbors'
property value declined. I appealed last year and lost. I was told my property value was
equalized and fair. During 1996, property for sale in my value range remained on the market for
extended periods of time. Many 6-10 months. In a few cases property was taken off the market.
Any property value increase is wrong. Under no circumstances is there any justifiable reason to
increase my property value. It is the same (nothing has changed) house you were in and
reviewed one year ago.

This area was reappraised for the 1996 pay 1997 valuation. At that time properties were
equalized which resulted in some properties changing more than others. Sales were reviewed
and were used as the basis for the values. Recent sales and resales indicate an increase in market
values. It normally takes longer to market a higher priced property with 6 to 10 months not
unusual. A house at 381 Trappers Pass sold for $285,000 on 11/22/96. It is over 700 sq. ft.
smaller with a two car garage. The subject has a 967 sq. ft. three car garage. After further
review of the calculations, and sales, no change is recommended.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:The taxes on this property increased 3%
from 1996-1997. The property taxes are estimated to increase 9% from 1997-1998. That's a
12% increase in only 2 years. I believe the taxes on this property should be reviewed for the
following reasons. 1. Other than putting rain gutters on the house, there have been no
improvements either in the interior or on the exterior that would increase market value. 2. The
CPI has increased less than 2.8% annually for the past two years. This property tax far exceeds
that. 3. Inflation has been low at approximately 3%. Again, this tax exceeds that. 4. Homes
such as ours are suffering declining market values due to shifting consumer trends from larger,
more expensive homes to smaller, less expensive homes. Considering the above factors, I
believe this estimated increase is unreasonable and should be reviewed. Thank you.

To Whom It May Concern,
I am submitting this letter as an intent to persue step one in an appeal of property taxes payable for 1997. I phoned
an associate at the Carver County Assessor's office last week and I am submitting information consistent to what
I was told.

We bought this property from the builder in November of 1996. The house was the builder's model home for approximately
a year. We purchased the property for $248,000. I have enclosed the HUD closing statement as well as an appraisal
which was performed in November of 1996.
I am appealing the taxable market value of this property based on the actual purchase (market value) of the house. The
house was on the market for well over 6 months. We have no finished basement or deck. No updates have been made.
There isn't any landscaping to speak of either.
I would appreciate a follow-up to this appeal at your soonest convenience. I was told by a Carver Count Assessor associate
that someone from that office would be calling me to schedule further action.
Thank you very much,

ACTION TAKEN BY ASSESSOR: Ann Wyse 5/1/97
After a telephone conversation with the owner and a previous interior inspection, I reviewed the
property data, the quality and condition of the house, checked the building calculations, and
reviewed the sales. The property at 7407 Laredo Drive sold for
$131,500. This house is 480 sq. ft. smaller than the subject property. It has half the basement
finish and a 100 sq. ft. screen porch vs. the subject's 210 sq~ ft. porch. Other sales in Western
Hills subdivision were reviewed including 406 Santa Fe Circle, $148,200; 7402 Frontier Trail,
$158,000; 405 Del Rio, $174,900 and 7406 Laredo Drive, $132,500. After further review of this
data, no change is recommended.

I \V ANT MY PROPERTY REVIE\VED BECAUSE:
Firstly, I believe an $8,000 increase over the previous year's increase is
totally unfair and uncalled for. I made absolutely no improvement to this
estate.
I am enclosing a Real Estate flyer for a similar property which I can view from
my rear door. It is at 7407 Laredo Drive and listed at $135,900 and most likely
sold for much less. At Least I heard the price had been lowered once before it
final~y sold. This is a corner lot like ours and certainly is not that Duch less
of a :>roperty.
Sure, I have a swimming pool (often a negative factor when trying to sell a hODe).
The pool is labor-intensive, in need of heavy re-investr.lent or removal - I checked
and it costs so much to remove...it was cheaper to keep it functional. If end vhen
we sell...it (the pool) will be a hard sell because of a variety of reasons most
people don't want such an enormous headache in our cold climate.
Secondly, come out and look at our neighborhood. On one corner across the street
we have a used car/garage "home" that is without a doubt the least expensive
property in the immediate area. They are good neighbors, but lets face facts this
property is not going to encourage any potential buyers of my property.
Then look "kitty-corner" and we have an "at-home" conc,rete construction firm that
year-round has construction trucks and vehicles parked in the driveway and street.
~Je have never complained about either of these "eyesores" but the constant inflation
of your yearly increases in valuation are staggering and uncalled for.

I want my property reviewed because I believe the means used to arrive at the
estimated market value is not equitable.
Per the County Assessor the increase in Estimated Market Value was based on a
"Blanked Increase". The blanket increase was arrived at by looking at recent sales in
Western Hills. The Median value used by the assessor was distorted by one sale, a sale
that is not representative of the typical homes in the area.
Sale Values used by the Assessor: 174K
158K
150K
148K
132K
132K
117K
If the one sale @ 174K is excluded the median value drops from aprox. 150K to 140k or
7.1%.
To verify that the single sale was unique in this area I contacted a Realtor and reviewed
their current listings in the area, asking prices ranged from 119K to 149K.
I found that there were two current listings at the end of our block with asking prices of
135K and 139K. It is important to note that these are Asking Prices, not Sales Prices,
most sales will be at some lower value.
This further confirms the fact that the one sale was unusual and distorted the blanket
adjustment.
Secondly, properties in Western Hills are being more aggressively assessed, at 93,54%
VS 92.7% for the county. This practice adds over $ 1000.00 to the estimated market
value to homes in our area, thus we are paying an above average amount of the tax
burden.
Third, the blanket adjustments does not consider the current condition of the driveways,
sidewalks, and landscaping. These visible items have ~ direct impact on selling price
and have been upgraded on many of the homes that are being sold. Mine are 28 years
old and will cost over 5K to replace and upgrade.
Based on the above information I request that the estimate market value be reduced by
10.8k ( 144.4 * 7.5% = 10.8) to 133.6K .

totally unacceptable. Our wages do not increase 6% a year, inflation rate is not 6%. Our home
was assessed less than a year ago on May 3, 1996 by Craig Paulson, so last year's value of
$161,200 seems much more in line than the 1998 estimate.

I WANT MY PROPERTY REVIEWED BECAUSE:As we discussed I would appreciate a
review of my property valuation. When I originally purchased the property in late 1993 I built in
a number of "allowances" in the purchase contract (for landscaping and interior work) which
became part ofthe total purchase price. I don't believe other comparable homes in my
neighborhood included most of these costs in the price. I also believe the finished square footage
is slightly overstated since it is higher than the other homes ofthe same model. To the best of
my knowledge, I am paying the highest property taxes in the development even though there are
other homes with more space and have finished basements (which mine does not). I don't
believe the valuation is way out of line but it seems it me to be $1 0-20K higher than I expected.

value of$I,243,200. The income approach indicated a valu~ of$I,156.800. The market
approach indicated a value range of$I,162,000 to $1,308,000. The analysis indicates the value
of this property is understated and will be revalued for the 1998 assessment. I recommend to the

APPEAL TO BOARD OF REVIEW 1997
I want my property reviewed because: I feel the valuation increase
from $825,000 to $866,300 is not realistic and is unfair.
To give you some background on the property involved, I am the
builder, partner, and lessor of the original industrial building located at 7900
Kerber Blvd. of approximately 20,000 sq. ft. built in 1979. It was occupied
with the main tenant being Chaska Machine & Tool Inc. and it was the first
and only building on that street for many years.
In 1993 they needed more space for expansion and we acquired the
adjoining lot which was available and considered somewhat undesirable by
the city. We went through the requirements to expand the building adding
16,000 sq. ft.
Part of the improvements were landscaping, new entry roofs, designing
and implementing an exterior color scheme that would fit in better with the
now surrounding buildings.
A serious negative factor from our perspective was the fact we had to
give up parking spaces to satisfy the 70% greenspace requirement. We ended
up with less parking than we had before the expansion.
Another factor in the valuation is the original building area, even
though it is dressed up on the exterior, is 18 years old and is not a new
building by any means. The floors and wall inside show 18 years of wear and
tear. The roof is a major cost which will have to be redone soon on the old
portion.
OUf building and property is industrial and unique in its corner of the
city surrounded by growing retail and other businesses. It is unique in that
the valuation would not rise as retail business may, but remain more stable
and is more related to the productions going on inside and the competitive
price of the products manufactured and sold outside of Chanhassen in
Minnesota and outstate.
In summary, I feel the old taxable market valuation of $825,000 should
not be raised for these reasons:
A. 55% of the building is 18 years old.
B. Our parking is limited.
C. Our location is to the rear of adjoining buildings which is fine for
the present use but undesirable for other uses.
5/12/97
/35b,
D. Ours is an industrial building located in an area where our
valuation is not rising as other surrounding retail businesses may
be, but it is based on its steady use and the production of parts
manufactured and sold within and beyond the boarders of
Minnesota.
