Truth in Taxation hearing, final levy certification set for Dec. 9; public comment opportunity noted
Summary
District staff recommended certifying the preliminary levy at the maximum to allow MDE adjustments; the Board will set the final levy and hold the Truth in Taxation hearing with public comment on Dec. 9, 2024.
The packet repeatedly emphasizes procedural timing: the preliminary levy must be filed with the Hennepin County Auditor by Sept. 30, 2024, and the Board will set final levy certification at its regular meeting on Dec. 9, 2024. The Dec. 9 meeting will include the Truth in Taxation hearing and an opportunity for members of the public to speak about the levy.
District staff asked the Board to approve the maximum preliminary levy amount so that any positive adjustments made by MDE before Sept. 30 will be reflected in parcel notices mailed this fall; the Board retains the option to reduce the levy prior to the Dec. 9 final certification. The packet provides staff contact information for questions and indicates parcel‑specific estimates will be available before the December meeting.
