Summary

Council confirmed approval to correct the Living Meadows (Luther Memorial Home) address and discussed assessments that were transmitted to the county but not applied to tax parcels this year; staff said arrangements were made for payments and the assessments should appear on next year's tax roll.

The council addressed an administrative item correcting the recorded address for Luther Memorial Home, which does business as Living Meadows. A council member said the council approved changing the address to 503 Benzel Avenue but that the county records still show a different street number, making it difficult to search property records and to manage finances for an upcoming assisted-living project.

Staff also reported that several certified assessments (including a church parking lot, K's demolition and a Travis Skyer demolition listed in the packet) were sent to the county but were not applied to tax parcel records this year. Staff said they have contacted property owners and arranged payments so the assessments can be applied on next year's tax rolls; staff explained that assessment application typically appears when a property sale triggers a title search and certificate-of-assessment request.

Council members discussed follow-up options to ensure assessments get attached to parcel records and asked staff to continue coordination with the county.
