Rahn Road Appellants' Motion for Costs
1670,1- ild - 03
Enclosed please find a copy of Judge Mansur's Order granting the Rahn
Road Appellants' Motion for costs in the sum of $5,593.00. This
Motion was heard by Judge Mansur on February 28, 1992. We opposed the
granting any of Appellants' costs on the basis that the City Council
had followed the Legislature's process in adopting the appraisal and
the City should not be punished by having to pay expenses for the
Appellants when they have already been afforded their remedy namely,,
vacation of the assessment.
A problem with our position, however, is that Minnesota Statutes
Chapter 429 concerning special assessments specifically awards costs
to a prevailing municipality but is silent to whether a prevailing
property owner is entitled to costs. In a 1979 case involving
Burnsville, however, the Minnesota Supreme Court stated that it
"could see no logical reason why a prevailing municipality should be
entitled to costs but not a prevailing landowner." See Villaae of
Burnsville Assessments, 287 N.W.2d 375, 377 (Minn. 1979). The Court
futher noted that awarding costs is up to the discreation of the
trial judge. Id. In light of that case law, it is not surprising that
the Judge awarded the Appellants their costs.
I ask that this matter be placed on the March 17, 1992 City Council
Agenda for approval of the issuance of a check to the Appellants in
tr.e sum of $5,593.00 as ordered by Judge Mansur. ,
If you have any questions or need any further information, please
contact me.

Appellants,
vs.

Hastings, Minnesota.

reasonable, as is the cost of $100 per parcel for attendance at

JIIDGMENT
I hereby certify that the above Order modifies the AFtTIN J MAN R
Judgment ente:ecl Jan 24-1992 and along with that " 4Judge Dis rict Court
Judgment constitutes the Amended Judgment of the Court.`
Date: Marcfi 2nd 1992 MEMORANDUM
Roger W. Sames, Crt Admr By Deputy
(Seal) Costs an is urse nts - At oral argument the issue was not
the amount or the reasonableness since it is slightly n?ore than
$450 per parcel; rather, whether under the relevant statute and
case law the Appellants are entitled to reimbursement for expert
appraisal services and testimonial costs.
In Village of Burnsville Assessments, 287 N.W.2d 375 (Minn.
1979) the Minnesota Supreme Court stated "...we' can see no
logical reason why a prevailing municipality should be entitled
to costs but not a prevailing land owner..."
In addition, Minn. Stat. 549.04 provides, in part, as
follows: "In every action in District Court, the prevailing
party...shall be allowed reasonable disbursements paid or
incurred, including fees and mileage for service of process by
the sheriff or by a private person."
The taxation of costs is governed by the Rules of Civil
Procedure and by Chapter 549 of Minnesota Statutes. The City
cites Minn. Stat. 645.21, Subd. 1, as a basis for the preclusion
of awarding of costs and disbursemeats. However, a full reading
of Minn. Stat. 645., and more specifically, 645.26, Subd. 1,
leads this Court to conclude that when a general provision in a
law is in conflict with a special provision in the same or
another law the two shall be construed, if possible, so that
3
effect may be given to both. In addition, this Court concludes
that where a conflict between two provisions is irreconcilable,
the special provision shall prevail and shall be construed as an
exception to the general provision. Finally, in this particular
case, the provisions of Minn. Stat. 549.04 and 429.081 are not
irreconcilable and, pursuant to the specific provisions of Minn.
Stat. 645.26, this Court construes each so that effect may be
given to both of the aforementioned statutes. •
While the City's argument is one of inerit, under the facts
of the case the Court is persuaded that the Appellant land owners
are entitled to reimbursement and it is so ordered.

Those proposed "technical" amended Findings which are not

addressed herein.
The Court recognizes that there are two sides to this issue,
and the City's case was fully, competently and fairly presented ?

to the Court. Appraisal of the properties was di the qreatest
:
import to the Eaotfindex. Aa art3culated in this Msmorandum and
in the Decembar 181 1991 Findinc.?s, order and Memorandum, in the
factfincler's visw, the facts tend to support Appe11ants.
_ The crux of Appellants' olaim is that the City unfairly
assezged them Por street improvemants. Tha standard for valid
apeoial assessments is: (1) the ].and mugt receive a npecial
benefit from the a.mprovsment being aonstxuctad; (2) the
as3assment must be uniform upon the same elass of property, and
(3) the assessment may not exceed the speaial benef it . Clrlso -
Lang R?al?.y Co. v. City of 'Windom, 307 Minn. 368, 369, 240 N.W.2d
517, 519 (Minn. 1976). Special benefit fs maagured by the
increase in the markst value oP the land owing to the
improvement. id, zn appraising the subject property, an
appraiser datermines what 'a willing buyex would pay a willing
seller for the property before, and than after, the improvement
has been constructed. ?c. While thegavernment entity ica
presumed to have aet the assessment legally, an appellant may
overaoutie the presumption by intraduQinq cpmQetent evidence that
the assessment is greater than the inorease i.n market value o£
the property due to the impxavement. Id. These 1re the criteria
which the Court applied to the Pacta presentad at trfnl.
It ahoul.d be noted that in its Memaxandum supporting its
motion for a new - trial or amended f indings, the City 'rel.iea an
Villaue_ f Ed3na v. ZQaggh, 254 MiriT1. 84, 199 N.W.2d 809 (1962).
zn that case, the residents whose property abutted the i.mproved

length of France Avenue objected to special assessments for ;
widening and paving of the street. Minnesota's Supreme Court stated the law in Villaqe of Edina, without setting out a
standard or formula, by saying that "[t]he basis and
justification of a special assessment are benefits to the
property affected... [b]enefits which may be demonstrated by a
mathematical exactness are not always required in order to
support an assessment." Villaae of Edina v. Joseph, 119 N.W.2d •
at 818. -, Minnesota has also adopted a specific test, as cited in
Carlson-Lanq Realtv Co., above, which this Court has chosen to
apply. While the City asserts that Village of Edina controls and
that the December, 1991 decision fails to abide by it, it appears
that the decision is consistent with both cases and in conformity with Minnesota law. I
Both parties attempted to establish evidence of the ?
I
properties' market value. Appellants' expert, Mr. Daniels, •
appraised each property based on individualized, detailed inspection of the properties and analysis of "comparables". His
written appraisals were for both "before" and "after" values.
Mr. Daniels factored into his appraisals his analysis of the
. effect of the Rahn Road improvements. There was also evidence
that many prospective buyers refused to make offers for purchase
of Rahn Road property after the improvements, and because of
them, and testimony about the actual sales data ayailable for
those properties. Some of that data indicated that average sale prices of
4
Eagan homes in 1991 were 11.5% higher than 1988 averages. Yet,
.
? an assessed Rahn Road home whose owner did not participate in
this action, which was bought in 1988 (before improvements) and
sold in 1991 (after improvements) failed to achieve that 11.5%
increase. The City used this home in its effort to show that
some increased value occurred. But the home's appreciation plus
the cost of the improvements was significantly less than the
price needed to justify the 11.5% average sale price plus the
assessment cost. Mr. Daniels's credentials, his testimony and his exhibits
were persuasive. That evidence indicated that the Rahn Road
improvements had not only not benefitted the Appellants'
properties but that the real market value of the properties had
been adversely effected. Where no benefit is conferred by the ,
improvement, no special assessment is permitted.
The City, on the other hand, offered evidence which was less
persuasive. The City's well-qualified expert, Mr. Metzen,
testified based upon more general presumptions. about the
individual properties. He did not inspect or appraise the
specific homes which were assessed but rather relied on square
. footage and frontage statistics to determine.comparable prices.
He further generalized from his comparables, using smaller homes,
based on square footage, to generalize fair market value for
larger homes.
In its position as the finder of fact, the Court must choose
one party's evidence over the other. Appellants' more specific
5
testimony was simply more convincing. ,
The determination of Rahn Road as a"collector" street and
the width of the improved road could be relevant as to whether
the improvements directly caused increased traffic, if the Court
had relied on that information alone, which is not the case. The
Court found, based on testimony from residents and real estate
experts, that Rahn Road changed after the improvement from a
quiet street to one on which traffic increased. Determination of
the date that it was designated' a"collector" street and the
exact width of the street are not significant to the Court's
decision. Again, the criteria for the assessment must be whether
the improvement benefitted the property, and the evidence
indicated it did not.
Finally, the method of assessment is not pertinent to the.
Court's conclusion that there is no benefit to the homeowners
from the improvement. Any asssessment, regardless of its
formula, is invalid. ,

The assessment of benefit to Appellants' properties as
indicated in the assessment roll was sufficien'?il,y countered by
Appellants to require the fact issue as to the reasonable value
of the property assessed before and after the improvement, and to
what extent the properties may have benefitted.
In considering the evidence of the before and after value,
greater weight was given to the testimony of the Appellants'
witnesses. Mr. Daniels formed his conclusions as to the market
value of the respective properties in the year the assessment
roll was adopted. His opinion as to the properties was further
supported by realtors active in the sale of residential homes in
the area, one of whom testified that the improvements of Rahn
Road changed the character of the neighborhood, and this change
impacted in•a- negative manner as to value of the Appellants'
properties. In addition, one or more of these realtors cited
actual sales listing experiences to further support their
testimony. . , •
Mr. Metzen's opinion as to value is based upon his knowledge
9
as to the builder of the homes in the area, and the type of homes .
the builder constructs. He elected not to inspect the subject
homes. Additionally, the city offered no testimony in the before
and after value of the individual parcels. Its expert testimony
was based on a sale or sales that were not too remote in time but
were not within the affected time frame; that is, at or near the
improvement, or subject to the improvement. Mr. Metzen took into
; •
consideration his knowledge, his experience, the type of homes
that the builder whom he was acquainted with constructs, and then
the sale or sales that he relied on as comparables*to the subject
properties in forming.an opinion as to whether the assessment, as
adopted by the city, met the statutory requirements. One should
note that his opinion is that the assessment as adopted by the
city did not for the most part meet the statutory requirements.
As his testimony indicated, for most of the parcels he formed an .
opinion that if there was a benefit, it was less than the
assessment levied by the city. Both value witnesses considered
the rate of inflation and the flat real estate market in arriving
at their conclusions. '
It is this Court's view that the difference between the
conclusions reached is that the eity's value witness considered
the availability of the use of the improvement rather than the
increase in value. Additionally, it should be noted- that the
Appellants' value"witness submitted written appraisals for each
parcel in support of his opinion as to value in the before and
the after,- whereas the city's value witness testified from his
10
_ • , ? ? :
knowledge of the area, the builder whom he was acquainted with,
• and some comparables, and then he concluded that the properties
benefitted in the amount that he testified without regard to the
before and after value as to each. It should be noted that five
of the parcels have 75 foot frontage and the square footage for
each of the dwellings ranges from 912 square feet to'a high of
1;232 square feet. This approach appears to treat each parcel
i
the same, regardless of size, whereas in addition to the'
differences noted with the properties that have 75 foot frontage,
one need only review Finding No. 14 to see the further disparity.
' Finally, the Court has determined the assessments must be
vacated for the reasons set forth herein. Therefore, it is not .
necessary to determine whether the method employed by the City in
computing the assessment is statutorily proper.

RAHN ?iOAD RECONSTRUCTION
A.fter introduction by Mayor F„g?is and City Administrator Hedges, Diredor of Public Works Tom
Colberi provided a brief overview of the assessments and the neig,hborbood meeting 6eld on lune 11,1991. He
aaid seventy properties with dirut access onto Rahn Road reaived notices of assessment on this project.
Mayor Egan then opened the public 6eariag to public comment. Mr. Charies MacDonald, of 4145 Rahn
Road, said he had filed written objetdou:fb:the assessments against his property. Mr. MacDonald said the value
of hi3 home had actually dropped because::ot the upgrado ot Raha Road and the resultant 6eavy traffic. He said
evidence of that is the Dakota County Aisessor'a 6ELte lowering the value ot bis 6ome by a S percent due to
Rahn Road. .... Mayor Egan asked Mr. Bill PetEts?a??o?tbc ??oiiti?ry:A35C'ssor'a oftice to explain the 5 percent deduction
Gom property taxes because a number of homeowners had referenced it in connection witb the Rahn Road
improvements. Mr. Peterson said a misunderstandiag exists among the 6omeowers as to the meaning ot the S
percent modit'ier. He said the modifier has been used sincs 1983 and was used for property along Rahn Road.
lt was done, however, for 1990 valualions aad, t6erefore, precteded reconstruction of Rahn Road. T6e Dakota
County Assessor's off;ce u.ses mass sppraisal and deaLs aitb anragea and norms. He aaid they use a standazd
site value and t6en look at each property and add or syb0-46;:fr66 this standard value considering a number of
factors, including being located on a major,strceC': k#c "Wd the County Assessor'a oftiee uses mod.ifiers quite
irequentl}• and is not implyiag that the irttipr.'pvcmtiits on:Rahn Road 6ad any impad on tbeir valuations.
Mr. Mark Weidenhah, of 4345 Ra?`itiad, 5aid..widenitsg and improving Rahn Road had compounded
the negative ef(ect of the road on their property. Ht??t3?e.d the State Attorney General bas ruled tbat to
be assessed for improvements, the City has to prove benefit io:the property. He said his property could not be
worth more aitb more Uafric. Mr. Darrell Haines, of 3990 Rahn Road, complained about the policy used for assessmenis, the loss of
bomc value and said additional properties on Bluestone, Carneliaa, Jsdc, Flint, dc. a6ould ahare in the costs.
Ms. Laurie Lucoaic, oi 4137 Rahn.-.R6K:.Wd shc'64.46he aa informal survey of other cides and [ound
that many do not assess by [ront [ootage:;.:?bE also?aouipltiined'"use the lacJc of double sUipiag on the road

Mr. Gerard Bents, representuig:mnunt G?vity l.utberan Cburch, objected to the asses.sment against
the ealire cburcb property ai the public:fsciiltie's`:ratti:: HiE:?ted out tbat this rate xas the aame ts that of
eommercial propcrty. He said tbey have?msaetbeicliiffcb?evai?alile to organizations tor meetings free of charge
and 6ave, as a result, generated additional traIIic. He pointed out, 6vwever, tbat approxdmstely 190 [eet ot the
frontage on Rahn Road belongs to the parsoaage and felt it sboWd be sssessed at a single-fami)y rate. Mr. Bents
wished to note that the 544,000 assessment coastitutes LS peroent of the c6urcb's aanual budget. Director of
Public Works Cotberl said the entire puctl has.qme.7eo. description aad it wras assesud at one rate based on
the zoning. Mr. Coibert aaid t6at the Cow,+.calU"i4 :i?id'ttM '««ments Cm ! differenE cast at the last City
Council meeting and had determined that ag6's.'sments sboat$:bt;based on Zoniag. Mr. Bents asted that the City
Conncil malce an tueptiao. ..... ...
Councilmcmber Pawlenty then 04.ssed the situation'Merred to by Mr. Colbert. in that instana, it

is assessed at a lower rate and is Wtimaltly 'put to a higher use, the City aould not have the opportunity, once
the asscssments are levied, to teassess
Mr. Terry Stovcr, o[ 3906 Itahw?:Road, objected to the assessmenta kvied egainst Oudot A of the
Wood6aven Addition. He said that oodoc:tloes aot have asse,ss onto Rahn Road and, furtber, the development
plan tor the property indicates that accts's*must be og Beau de Rue Drive. Mr. Stover said any possibility of
access onto Rahn Road was a virtua( imposu'bitity due 1o tbe:new elevadoe of the road. He referred to the [au
that several properties along Rahn Road were aot assessed because t6ey had no driveaay as.uss onto Rahn Road
and said be beGeved Ouelot A was the only one witbout access beiag assessed. He said his property bas already
beea assessed tor improvements to Beau:de Rue.
•' Mr. Stover then pointed out h4:p3rcel's loas:of value because of e permanent storm sewer easement
ganted to the City. While he had rectiv,o4:38,000 far;the easement, 6e said an appraistr had estimated the loss
to his property at between $17,000 and 518,000. Ms. L.ettie Knutson, of 2014 Shak,1.4triesaid:sht'ba,t':b;:garage wit6 access oPf Rahn Road but her home
has its drivew•ay access on Shale Laae. Ms: AKdutson`poinfed oiit t6at two yeara ago her home aas appraised at
S98,000 and aow tbe County tax assessor 6ad iadicated the value as $91,000. She asked wby her property values
6ad gone dowv.
Mr. Paul Notterman, ot 4374 Rahn Road, said it only took common sease to realiu that values had gone
dowv with the widening and repairing of Rahn Road. .
Mayor Egan then asked City Attotpc?Ji&:S3ieldoe ?to explain the process for objezting to assessmcnts.
Mayor Egan said the City Council.had iw.c6oice"tii?t to malce this road improvement as Rahn Road in
its previous condition was no longer functioa?: e:]Wd:it:.i,t,qne of the first reconstruction projects in the City
and the City Council has tried to adopt a cost formiila ai.:tbey..believe equitable to all t6ose eoncerned.
McCrea moved, Wachter seconded a motion to close tbe public bearing, approve the 6na1 assessment
roll for Project 584 (Rahn Road Reconstruction) aod aulhoriu artitication to Dakota County.
Councilmember Gustafson asked, in regard to assessments based oa pazcels rather than front footage,
i[ Mount Calvary Lut6eran Churcb oould hav?:the.,issue of,4ingk family and pubGc fadlities frontage resolved
by the City or whether the court would 6a?c??tti:m:?ce:that.?aelG?iaatioa. D'uedor of Public Works Colbert said
an assessment bearing judge would not ?valuate tbetdt#bod used to urive at the assessmcnts, however, sucb
method would be the prerogative of the CiCy Council:''S'tatute does require that the City Ueat all Wce properties
in a similar manner and there ooutd be a:?allenge 6r.om the Baptist C6urcb J the Gty Couad assessea Mount

Recogniziag that tbere was a motion ? aad• second'6e6e the C"tty Coundl, Mayor Egan asked City
Attorney Sheldon whctber the City Counal could incorporate some discretionary poUry in regard to the Mount
Calvary Lutheran C6urcb property. Mr. S6eldon said the C;ity Conncil oDWd oomplete the motion and send it

MEMORANDIIM
TO: Tom Colbert, Director of Public Works
FROM: Annette M. Margarit
DATE: November 4, 1991
RE: Rahn Road Assessment Appeal 0*40 SSy
Enclosed please find Judge Mansur's Order and accompanying memorandum
denying our motion to sever the twelve assessment appeals for Rahn
Road that are combined into one action. The Judge seemed to basically
buy the argument that because the parties are raising the same issue,
namely, that increased traffic has diminished the value of their
properties, the combination is appropriate.
The trial is currently scheduled for November 15, 1991. I understand
that you will be on vacation on that date. Rather than continuing
this trial because there are so many appeals that have been set for
December and into January, I would prefer to have Mike Foertsch
testify or get someone from Bonestroo to be available for this trial.
I will contact Mike to see if he is available on that date.

The property is unique and, as such, the issue of benefits
versus costs of improvements must be determined for each property
exclusive of the other. Here the Petitioners apparently are
residents on Rahn Road in the city of Eagan and have joined
together in appealing the assessments that have been certified by
the City against their subject properties for what the City
alleges to be improvements by the widening of Rahn Road.
The Petitioners contend that the improvements were initiated
by the City to serve the primary interests of the Target store
and Cub Foods store and to provide for better access to these
locations. Further, the Petitioners allege that their subject
property has diminished in value by reason of the widening of the
road, the increased traffic to the business entities referred to
herein.
There being a common theme that forms the basis of the
.,.
appeal from the assessments, it is this Court's view that the
severance would not serve the interest of all parties, including
the City, but rather, would allow for an expeditious disposition
of the Petitioners' appeals and if either party is aggrieved by
the Court's decision, allow for the appellate process to go
forward without further delay. To grant the City's motion could
involve different judges for different property owners and could
possibly entail different results. This would cause confusion
for all and would not serve the best interest of all parties,
including the City.

MEMORANDIIM
TO: Tom Colbert, Director of Public Works
FROM: Annette M. Margarit
DATE: October 30, 1991
RE: Motion to Sever Rahn Road Appeals
On October 28, 1991 I appeared before the Honorable Judge Martin
Mansur to argue the City's motion to sever the twelve assessment
appeals currently filed as one action. The appellants' attorney
Howard Groves also appeared. Enclosed please find a copy of the
papers Mr. Groves had filed for the purposes of this motion.
Judge Mansurs' opening comments indicated his train of thought as he
told Mr. Groves that all parcels were unique, and inquired as to why
Mr. Groves believed the assessment appeals should be joined. Mr.
Groves argued that the properties are very similar in location and
basically are arguing the same issue that the project has not
benefitted them at all but in fact has been a detriment to their
property. Through some of his other questions, it seemed apparent the
Judge was not totally supportive of Mr. Groves' position.
The Court asked for the City's position and I reiterafied the Judge's
own comments namely that each parcel is unique and by the very nature
of the special assessment, the City may not levy an assessment
greater than the benefit to that particular parcel. I pointed out to
the Court that the parcels were not all assessed the same amount
indicating that they differed in some respect. I also argued that, in
the event the Court did not agree that the properties had been
benefitted to the amount of the assessment, the Court would need to
be able to arrive at some equitable means of determining a reduction
in the assessment. Without knowledge of the individual
characteristics of the properties, the Court would have to resort to
a blanket type of reduction which would be unfair to the City and
likely also the°landowners.
The Court noted that appellants paid only one filing fee. The Judge
stated that he would take the matter under advisement and issue an
order.

RE: Sale Price of?,-3-990-RahnRoad ?
<----=----- - A
Pursuant to your request, we asked Tom Metzen's office to obtain the
sale nrice of the parcel at 3990 Rahn Road which was owned by Darrel
and Pat Haines at the time of the kah;. Raau 41--ria,-'. F--cm the r?ctures
in the appraisal, this appears to be the parcel located next door to
the Fire Department.
Larry Danich of Metzen's office informed me that the house sold for
$87,400.00. Iie said the house had been greatly improved with new
windows, and extensive interior updating and decorating. The realtro
who sold it said the home looked like a model home. Interestingly, at
trial, Mr. Daniels opined the parcel was worth $72,500.00, both
before and after the improvements.
