REGUALR MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, AUGUST 11, 1980 Page 30 <br /> To continue the District is not an effective WEST HENNEPIN <br /> approach in accomplishing real values. ASSESSMENT DISTRICT <br /> (Continued) <br /> The District, in the past� has attempted to recruit <br /> other cities into the District; the results have <br /> been negative. <br /> " Hennepin County has estimated they would provide <br /> field work for assessing purposes for approximately <br /> $28 ,590 . In addition, the City of Orono would <br /> have to provide clerical help for assessment searches, <br /> homesteading, and maintaining public contact at an <br /> approximate cost of $6 ,000 for a total cost of $34 ,590 . <br /> There are many advantages to having a local assessor ' <br /> that cannot be provided by Hennepin County. We now <br /> maintain a coordinated effort with all City departments , <br /> particularly Building and Zoning, on-site disposal <br /> systems, legal department, and the Public Works <br /> Department, who rely upon information that the <br /> Assessing Department has readily available . Hennepin <br /> County cannot provide this service. <br /> The estimated cost for Orono to maintain its own <br /> Assessing Department is $36 , 160 , which consists of <br /> one assessor and benefits, and one clerk-secretary <br /> (60$ of her time) , 400 of her time would be charged <br /> to other departments. <br /> I recently discussed with Minnetonka Beach and <br /> Minnetrista their feelings toward the District. ' <br /> Both cities have discussed at their Council meetings <br /> their intent to negotiate wit� Hennepin County <br /> retaining them to assess their areas. They are <br /> waiting for Orono 's decision. <br /> I recommend adoption of the attached resolution to <br /> allow the District to dissolve by January 1, 1981. <br /> This should be executed Monday evening to allow <br /> Minnetonka Beach and Minnetrista to act on their own <br /> behalf . ' <br /> Council Meeting - August 11, 1980 <br /> Mayor Van Nest moved, Butler seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION #1189 <br /> Resolution #1189 , A Resolution To Notify The West Withdraw From West <br /> Hennepin Assessment District The Intent To Withdraw Hennepin Assessment <br /> From the Bistrict.
