Appeals Process <br /> • <br /> An owner of the property has the opportunity to appeal the assessment amount at various <br /> stages of the assessment process. The first stage is when the assessment amount is initially <br /> estimated by staff based on the interpretation of the existing Assessment Policy. If the <br /> estimate was based on inaccurate or incomplete information, the owner may work directly <br /> with staff to clarify or rectify the situation. <br /> If the owner is not satisfied with the outcome at this stage, known as the first stage, they may <br /> file a formal appeal with the City Council, prior to the adoption of the assessment roll. This <br /> is known as the second stage of the appeal's process. <br /> If the appeal is denied by the City Council, the owner may appeal to the district court <br /> pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 429.081, by serving notice of the appeal to the <br /> Mayor or the City Administrator within thirty(30) days after the adoption of the assessment. <br /> • <br /> 2004 Assessment Policy—Page 12 <br />
