Jurisdictions that increased their levies will receive more, <br />while those that kept their levies flat or fairly small will see decreases. <br /> <br />RECAP OF RAMSEY COUNTY FINANCE DIRECTORS MEETING <br /> <br />On August 7, 2014, Ramsey County held a meeting with its Finance Directors from all taxing <br />districts. The Assessor is optimistic that our real estate markets are much improved and still <br />getting better. <br /> <br />Residential markets experienced the most positive improvements, with buyer activity improving, <br />there are fewer foreclosure and short sales. Apartment markets continue to be very healthy and <br />there is substantial construction of new apartments across the Twin Cities metro area. <br /> <br />Commercial and industrial markets have recovered most of the loss in value from the recession. <br />County-wide Commercial/Industrial aggregate values have increased 0.6%. In Arden Hills we <br />have seen a decrease in this area of 0.1% vs. a decrease of 3.69% in Pay 2014, but you must also <br />factor in tax petitions and appeals that have adjusted values. There is a backlog of tax court <br />petitions but they are working to get through the backlog of petitions. <br /> <br />
