Whereas, immediate payment of special assessments or installments on special assessments cast an undue hardship on some persons owning
homestead properties who are 65 years of age or older or retired by virtue of a permanent and total disability for whom it would be a hardship to make
payments, and
Whereas, Minnesota Statutes f~435.193 - 435.195 makes it possible for a home rule charter city to pass a resolution establishing standards and
guidelines for determining the existence of a hardship and for determining the existence of a disability.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS:
1. This deferral procedure shall apply only to assessments which are payable in five or more annual installments.
2. This deferral procedure shall apply only to property owned and occupied by the elderly, retired, or disabled applicant. Ownership and
occupancy must be Of the same nature as would qualify the applicant for a homestead exemption for tax purposes.
3. This deferral pmcadure shall apply only to homestead property owned by a person 65 years of age or older or retired by virtue of a permanent
and total disability for whom it would be a hardship to make payments. Permanent and total disability shall have the same definition for
purposes of assessment deferral as is used for social secudty purposes.
4. This deferral procedure shall not be construed as to prohibit the determination of hardship on the basis of exceptional and unusual
circumstances not covered by the standards and guidelines herein so long as determination is made in a nondiscriminatory manner and does
not give the applicant an unreasonable preference or advantage over other applicants.
5. In order to obtain a deferral of an assessment, the homeowner must make application on the forms prescribed by the City of Columbia Heights
Assessment Clerk.
6. In granting a deferred assessment, the Council shall determine in its resolution appreving the assessment roll the amount of interest, if any, to
be charged on the deferred assessment.
The option of the homeowner to defer the payment of special assessments shall terminate and all amounts accumulated plus applicable interest
shall become due and payable upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
a. the death of the owner, provided that the spouse is not otherwise eligible for benefits hereunder;
b. the sale, transfer or subdivision of the property or any part thereof;
c. if the property should for any reason lose its homestead status; or
d. if for any reason the City shall determine that there would be no hardship to require immediate or partial payment.
No deferral may be granted unless the homeowner makes application to the City Assessment Clerk within thirty (30) days after adoption of the
assessment by the Council.
The deferral shall apply to only 50% of the annual installment payment. If the 50% is not paid in a timely manner, the balance of the annual
installment along with all future installments shall become immediately due and payable.
No deferral shall be granted to any owner who has a gross annual household income from all sources in excess of $17,900.00.
No deferral may be continued from year to year unless the owner shall file a renewal application before September 15th of each year.
No special assessment may be deferred for a pedod longer than the time set by the Council as the time over which the project is to be
assessed.
Interest on deferred assessments shall be at the rate set by the Council in its resolution adopting the assessment roll, and such interest shall be
added to the amount deferred and shall be paid in accordance with Minnesota Statute ~435.195 and his Resolution.

should be designated at the organization meeting. Nawrocki asked for a written opinion from the City
Attorney on scheduling special meetings and announcing the items to be discussed.
Nawrocki disagreed with allowing only one discount to be used by residents renting Murzyn Hall. He gave
the example that a resident will now pay $80 for a two-hour rental, compared to $49 if allowed to use the
previous discounts. He felt the resident rate should reflect a residents initial investment and yearly taxes to
maintain this hall. Magee stated this would eliminate the double discount. Peterson stated the Park and
Recreation Commission made this recommendation following criticism that Murzyn Hall is losing money
Peterson suggested Mr. Nawrocki address this Commission with his concerns.
Nawrocki questioned the appointment of EDA commissioners. Peterson stated that the two outgoing
Councilmembers resigned and are replaced by current Councilmembers. In addition, Anderson corrected
Resolution #2000-92 indicating it is Councilmember Szurek who is to be reappointed, not Pat Jindra. The

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
Attached is the business license agenda for the January 8, 2001 City Council meeting for the renewals for 2001.
An application for a license to operate a secondhand store at 3952 Central Avenue has been submitted by Iris Lucille Walgren.
Mrs. Walgren inadvertently opened her store in December without the required license from the City. She immediately responded
to our inquiries and submitted the necessary paperwork for her license. The Police Department has not found anything to
prohibit the City from issuing a license. The Fire Department has scheduled an upcoming inspection to assure that Mrs. Walgren
is aware of the necessity for keeping exits open and other Fire Code issues. The Building Official has visited the site and did
not find any issues.
At the top of the license agenda you will notice a phrase stating *"Signed Waiver Form Accompanied Application". This means
that the data privacy form has been submitted as required. If not submitted, certain information cannot be released to the
public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Move to approve the items as listed on the business license agenda for January 8, 2001.
