Attachments: Truth -in- Taxation PowerPoint Presentation
Policy Consideration: The City Council is required by law to consider public input at this hearing prior
to adopting the property tax levy and budget for 2013.
Background: The City Council adopted a preliminary budget and tax levy in August. That information
was sent to Hennepin County who used the County Assessor's property values to determine an
estimated tax rate. Discussions and citizen concerns regarding individual property values are held each
year at the Board of Review meetings in April, May and June. This information was combined with
preliminary tax information from other taxing jurisdictions to create a Truth -in- Taxation statement for
each property which were mailed in November.
For this meeting, the City Council is holding a public hearing to allow taxpayers an opportunity to discuss
the budget in general, specific budget areas, and the level of property tax levied by the City of
Shorewood. This meeting is not designed for property owners to discuss property value, which was set
earlier in the year at the Board of Review process held from April through June.
The required elements for the Truth -in- Taxation process are:
1. The proposed property tax levy must be certified to the county auditor by September 15.
2. The public meeting is held at the scheduled time and place indicated on the TNT notice.
3. The proposed budget and property tax levy are discussed at the meeting.
4. The public was invited and allowed to speak and to ask questions concerning the budget and
proposed property taxes at the public meeting.
5. The final property tax levy and the final budget need to be adopted by December 27.
6. The final property tax levy may not exceed the preliminary August 27 certified property tax levy.
7. The final property tax levy must be certified to the county auditor by December 27.
8. Form TNT -2012 must be submitted to the Dept. of Revenue after the final tax levy is adopted no
later than December 30.
Items in bold will be discussed at the Public Hearing on December 3.
Financial or Budget Considerations:
Mission Statement: The City of Shorewood is committed to providing residents quality public services, a
healthy environment, a variety of attractive amenities, a sustainable tax base, and sound financial
management through effective, efficient, and visionary leadership. Page 1
Options: If time does not allow all interested parties to provide input or the City Council would like
more time to discuss the budget and /or tax levy, the vote can be postponed until the meeting on
December 10.
Recommendation / Action Requested: Staff recommends that the City Council hold the public hearing
and accept public input on the proposed budget and tax levy.
Next Steps and Timelines: The final General Fund budget and tax levy will be on the agenda for
approval after the public hearing at this meeting.
Connection to Vision / Mission: This item contributes to sound financial management by providing
effective city services at a reasonable price.
