Minneapolis Taxes Committee Meeting
A
Good
morning,
everyone
I
will
call
to
order
this
meeting
of
the
taxes
committee
for
Wednesday
March
22nd
2017.
My
name
is
Abdul
Rahmi
and
I'm.
The
chair
of
the
committee
with
me
at
the
diet,
are
council
members,
Gordon,
Reich,
Lyndon,
Johnson,
yang
Quincy,
fry
and
Quincy
fry
Goodman
and
palmisano,
and
we
have
a
quorum
for
this
killed
for
this
committee.
A
Colleagues,
we
have
two
items
of
business
on
the
agenda
today,
both
of
which
relate
to
the
city's
Board
of
Appeals
and
equalize
equalization.
As
you
know,
this
special
board
is
established
under
local
authority
to
arbitrate
disputes
related
to
the
classification
and
market
assessment
of
properties
within
the
city.
The
board
has
the
authority
to
decrease
sustained
or
increase
the
market
value
of
a
property,
and
these
actions
ultimately
are
returned
to
the
City
Council
for
its
confirmation.
A
Staff
has
provided
a
comprehensive
description
in
the
agenda
materials.
However,
if
there,
if
there
are
questions,
we
can
entertain
those
at
this
time,
are
there
any
questions
from
the
committee
members
I
see
none
so
I
move
adoption
of
the
resolution
establishing
the
2017
Minneapolis
Board
of
Appeals
and
equalization,
all
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye,
those
opposed
say
no,
the
eyes
have
it,
and
that
resolution
will
be
forwarded
with
a
favorable
recommendation
to
the
full
council.
The
city
clerk
will
convene
the
board
for
this
2017
session
by
or
after
April
the
12.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
The
second
item
is
to
appoint
members
to
the
board
for
its
2017
session.
Under
the
city
code,
at
least,
one
member
must
be
either
an
appraiser,
a
realtor
or
individual
familiar
with
property
valuations
in
the
city.
As
the
briefing
materials
indicate,
we
have
one
appraiser,
one
realtor
and
one
property
owner,
all
of
whom
have
extensive
experience
and
prior
service
to
the
city.
In
this
capacity,
all
members
have
completed
the
mandatory
state
certification
training
program
and
bring
valuable
experience
to
this
process.
Are
there
any
questions
from
the
committee?
I
see
no
questions.
A
I
move
to
approve
the
slate
of
appoint
appointments
as
members
of
the
2017
Board
of
Appeal
and
equalization,
as
presented
all
those
in
favor.
Please
say:
aye,
those
opposed
say
no
lies
having
those
five
individuals
are
appointed
as
members
for
the
2017
Board
of
Appeals
and
equalization
for
the
record.
I
will
read
the
names
of
those
who
had
who
have
been
appointed
to
serve
those
individuals,
our
pad
meramec
and
appraiser
sandal
OSHA,
a
realtor
and
Earl.
A
Let
wall
a
freeholder
of
the
city
of
Minneapolis
I'd
like
to
express
the
city's
thanks
and
appreciation
to
each
of
them,
so
they
can
be
continued
service
for
the
city
of
Minneapolis
that
completes
the
business
or
on
our
agenda
today
with
nothing
further
to
come
before
the
committee.
We
are
adjourned.
Thank
you.
B
I'll
note
for
council
members:
we,
if
you
can
maybe
stay
in
your
seats.
We
just
have
a
few
moments
where
the
clerk
needs
to
adjust
things
for
us
to
open
our
second
meeting,
which
is
the
committee
to
hold
that,
is
also
a
short
meeting
and
that
will
be
concluded
before
we
get
to
the
event
that
probably
most
in
the
audience
are
here
for
which
is
the
joint
meeting
of
the
community
development
and
the
public
safety
committees,
which
should
start
at
ten-fifteen.
Thank
you.
