Summary

Senior Deputy State’s Attorney Drew DeGroot asked the commission to defer a motion to rescind previously approved abatements on Parcel 35328 for levy years 2018 and 2019 so the property owner could be notified by certified letter; the commission voted 5-0 to delay action one week.

The Minnehaha County Commission on July 7, 2020, voted unanimously to defer consideration of a motion to rescind approval of abatements on Parcel 35328 for levy years 2018 and 2019. Senior Deputy State’s Attorney Drew DeGroot requested the deferral to ensure the property owner received proper notice by certified letter before the Commission acted. The motion to defer was made by Commissioner Heiberger and seconded by Commissioner Barth and passed 5-0.

DeGroot explicitly requested the delay to allow staff to provide certified notice to the owner; no additional documentation or dates beyond a one-week deferral were specified on the record. The transcript records the deferral will allow staff to confirm notification procedures have been completed prior to formal action on the abatement rescission.

The Commission also handled other business that day and scheduled its next meeting for July 14, 2020, when the deferred item may be considered again.
