Staff searched the property tax data base and found three (3) properties in the City with the same tax classification <br />as the subject parcel, 'AGRICULTURAL, COMMERCIAL / GOLF COURSE,'. The other two (2) properties are <br />vacant land. The Stormwater Utility database was compared with the tax database and there are two (2) properties <br />in the Stormwater utility with an agricultural classification. The other parcel has a designation 'AGRICULTURAL, <br />AGRICULTURAL,'. <br />Staff also researched "Green Acres" on the county and state tax websites. There is tightly defined set of criteria that <br />assesors must follow to grant "Green Acres" status to a parcel including minimum area devoted to agriculture and <br />minimum period of ownership. <br />This property is defined by the tax status and the type of business operating on the site. It is unique among the <br />properties being charge a stormwater utility fee. It is unlikely that another storm water utility customer could meet <br />the criteria to apply for this same rate change. <br />Funding Source: <br />This case does not require expenditure of City Funds. The decision will change the income to the Stormwater <br />Utility Fund. <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />Based upon discussion. <br />Committee Action: <br />Based upon discussion <br />Ordinance <br />Rate Calculation <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Brian Olson Brian Olson 03/08/2011 03:43 PM <br />Len Linton Len Linton 03/09/2011 10:49 AM <br />Tim Himmer Tim Himmer 03/09/2011 10:59 AM <br />Brian Olson Amy Dietl 03/10/2011 08:42 AM <br />Kathy Schmitz Amy Dietl 03/10/2011 08:43 AM <br />Form Started By: Len Linton Started On: 03/08/2011 08:39 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 03/10/2011 <br />
