A RESOLUTION LEVYING ASSESSMENT
FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS
WHEREAS, pursuant to proper notice duly given as required by law, the Edina City Council has met
and heard and passed upon all written and oral objections to the proposed special assessments for the
improvement listed below on October I, 2024: Morningside D & E Neighborhood Roadway Reconstruction —
Improvement No. BA-461; and,
WHEREAS, PID: 0702824430148 or Edina Morningside Community Church was included in the list of
properties assessed for the Morningside D & E Neighborhood Roadway Reconstruction Project; and,
WHEREAS, further review by City staff found that the levied special assessment was greater than the
anticipated special benefit to the Subject Property. This difference existed because a church building with no
parking lot may receive lesser special benefit in the marketplace from a road reconstruction project. The building
occupies most of the parcel and the unique nature of the Subject Property's building square footage almost
equates the total site area square footage. The City's assessment policy anticipates that most sites will include
buildings, parking lots, and green space. The unique nature of the Subject Property was not adequately addressed
by application of the City's standard assessment policy parameters; and,
WHEREAS, under Minnesota Statute Chapter 429.071 Subd.2. provides that, in the event the council
finds that the assessment or any part thereof is excessive, the council may, upon notice and hearing as provided
for the original assessment, make a reassessment as to such parcels.
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Edina, Minnesota as follows:
I . This special reassessment as set forth in the special assessment roll on file in the office of the City Clerk
for each aforementioned improvement is hereby accepted and shall constitute the special assessment against the
referenced property, and this tract of land therein included in herein found to be benefited by the improvement
in the amount of the special assessments of $18,295.20 levied against it.
2. The special assessments shall be payable in 15 equal installments, the first of said installments together
with interest at a rate of 4.69% per annum, on the entire special assessments from the date hereof to December
31, 2025. To each subsequent installment shall be added interest at the above rate for one year on all unpaid
installments.
3. The owner of the property so assessed may, at any time prior to certification of special assessment to
the County Auditor, partially prepay an amount not less than 25% of the whole assessment to the City Treasurer
and no interest shall be charged on the portion of the assessment prepaid; or pay the whole of the special
assessments on such property, to the City Treasurer, except that no interest shall be charged if the entire special
assessment is paid before November 22 following the adoption of this resolution and they may, at any time
thereafter, pay to the City Treasurer the entire amount of the special assessments remaining unpaid. Such
payment must be made before November 22, 2024.
