The following <br />represented the City staff: City Assessor Paul Smith and his <br />associate Frank Mennega, City Administrator Bernhardson and City <br />Deputy Clerk Naab. Representing Hennepin County was: County <br />Assessor Bob Hanscom. <br />INTRODUCTION <br />Administrator Bernhardson explained that those in attendance <br />would be given a chance to give any evidence, presentation or <br />information they may have concerning their valuation. Assessor <br />Smith will be given an opportunity to reply and then the Council <br />will make a decision. <br />The following persons appeared before the Board: <br />1. Allen Carlson, 3125 Fox Street - P.I.D. 04- 117 -23 33 0011 <br />Mr. Carlson stated his assessed value went up 55% in one <br />year, over $350,000 of assessed value which translates to <br />somewhere around $10,000 in additional taxes per year. Mr. <br />Carlson was unable to reach the assessor to review other <br />• land values in the area and his home had not been <br />reassessed. <br />[� J <br />Assessor Smith noted that there has been a number of sales <br />of homes 'simliar, to Mr. Carlson's home in the last year, <br />selling for values very comparable to the value that is <br />existing on his property now. Smith noted that 3300 Fox <br />Street sold for $750,000 with only 100' of lakeshore vs. <br />665' of lakeshore that Mr. Carlson has. <br />Mr. Carlson noted that because of a subdivision in 1983, he <br />only has approximately 315' of lakeshore and only 7 acres <br />opposed to the 15 acres noted. <br />Assessor Smith stated that he still felt the valuation fair <br />as the Carlson house is of a better quality construction and <br />the house at 3300 Fox Street had 4 acres with 100' of <br />lakeshore. <br />Councilmember Callahan noted that this was a staggering <br />increase. <br />Councilmember Goetten felt that Mr. Carlson did not get the <br />attention that he felt he needed from the assessor. She <br />felt that it was a staggering increase also. <br />1 <br />
