Discussion:

The City of Shakopee along with all the other Scott county cities and townships participate in a JPA with Scott County to provide assessing services. 

 

The proposed contract for assessment services covers 2020 through 2022. The initial year of the contract includes considerations for changes impacting ongoing assessment workloads, such as parcel creations, new home construction, and annexation activities which equates to an increase of 4.2 percent for Shakopee. Increases for the subsequent assessment years, 2021 and 2022, are proposed at 3 percent.

 

  • 2019 Assessment Agreement - $290,500 (current agreement)
  • 2020 Assessment Agreement - $302,800 (proposed agreement)
  • 2021 Assessment Agreement - $311,900 (proposed agreement)
  • 2022 Assessment Agreement - $321,300 (proposed agreement)

 

The JPA requires the approval of the City Council.

The JPA for assessment services will be considered when preparing future budgets.
