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 2.2%. Ten years of tax <br />appeals were settled with the Ford Motor Plant earlier this year, which will impact the Fiscal <br />Disparities pool and the Count-wide rates/values. <br /> <br />TAKING A LOOK AT ARDEN HILLS LEVY TAX RATE HISTORY <br /> <br />The State of Minnesota has granted local municipalities the authority to levy taxes to fund <br />operations and debt payments. The City’s entire tax levy goes for General Fund expenditures. <br />For the City of Arden Hills, the property tax levy accounts for approximately 79% of the General <br />Fund revenues. Historically, the City does not use reserves to balance the City’s budget,
