Title:

Adopt Resolution Approving Final 2013 HRA Levy

Background:

Each “taxing authority” must certify its final property tax levy for payable 2013 to the County Auditor by December 28, 2012.

ANALYSIS:

On March 5, 2005 the City Council established a Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA). The HRA bylaws state that the makeup of the HRA will be the Ramsey City Council.

For Budget Year 2012, the HRA adopted a maximum levy of $368,549.   For Payable 2013, the maximum allowable levy is $328,567 (.0185% of total taxable market value of $1,776,037,837).  

On September 11, 2012 the HRA adopted a preliminary levy in the amount of $187,268 to cover the basic operating costs of the HRA and that any expenses related to the COR would need to be paid from future land sales.

A taxpayer home valued at $200,000 would be paying $21.09 towards the levy.  The levy will be used for ongoing costs associated with the basic operating costs of the HRA: designated personnel, general liability and approximately $48,000 of maintenance costs related to the maintenance of the parking ramp.



Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution approving the final 2013 HRA levy in the amount of $187,268.

Funding Source:

The HRA budget is supported by the HRA tax levy.

Council Action:

Motion by Commissioner         and seconded by Commissioner    to adopt Resolution #HRA-12-XX authorizing approval of the final 2013 HRA levy in the amount of $187,268.
