City Council
City of Eagan
3830 Pilot Knob Rd.
Eagan, MN 55122
Dear Sirs:
JUN 1 s issl
This letter is to notify the City of Eagan that I object to the spec-ial_____
ssessment? being levied against my property (Identification ?? 1!0 70-7=-75-020-;
?' 1') at 4372 Rahn Road for the amount of $ 2,617.15.
,-_-
Special assessments are intended to reflect the influence of a specific
improvement upon property value. By Minnesota Statute Chapter 429, the
real measure of benefit is the increase in the market value of the land as
a result of the improvement. Not only do I feel the market value of my
property did not increase by $ 2,617.15, but that it was decreased by
$ 5,000 - $ 20,000.
My property is located south of Diffley on the east side of the road. In
this area the road was not in need of replacement. An overlay-was all that
was required to keep the road in good condition for many years to come.
The bituminous curb was still in good shape and serving its function.
Storm runoff was being handled by the existing storm sewer and did not need
upgrading in this area:. The bituminous path was already in place south of
Diffley so it does not enter into the scope of this project as far as my
property is concerned. Also, all three houses on the east side of Rahn
Road were hooked into the existing D.I.P. watermain and did not need new
water services. Thus there was no work that needed to be done that
concerned my property.
As to work that was done, a wider road built to a heavier section to handle
more and heavier traffic loads gives no benefit to adjoining residen'tial
property, and is a marked detriment. Traffic volume and speeds (even with
Eagan police putting in a good effort to keep speeds-down) have greatly
increased on Rahn Rd. south of Diffley since the reconstruction (although
the City claimed they would not).. Rahn Road has become the most convenient
way for people to reach shopping from the north.. The greater traffic flow
may be great for Cub and Target, but it does not help owners of single
family residential property. The increased traffic volume and speeds
produce more and louder road noise. It also makes access in and out of my
driveway much more difficult. Both of these factors lower its market
value.
The wider road took eight feet of green space from in front of my property
and pushed the overhead utilities eight to twelve feet closer to my front
door. Both of these factors also lowered the market value of the property.
?
Page 2 - continued
The wider road being 8 feet closer to the existing bituminous trail and at
the same or lower elevation (I do not have a set of plans for Rahn Rd.) as
the old road causes a steeper grade at the end of my driveway than would
have been needed before the construction.
My family has been in the business of designing and building custom single
family homes for over 40 years. My house was designed to sell on the given
lot and Rahn Road,,as it was, for between $120 and $130 thousand. With the
new Rahn freeway in front of the house, $100 to $110 thousand is the most
one can expect to get out of the property when finished (possibly alot
less).
Before purchasing the property in August-September of 1989, I checked with
the City of Eagan about plans for Rahn Rd. I was told the only thing
planned was to overlay Rahn Rd. south of Diffley in a few years. Three
months later I received a letter about the new proposed freeway. Had I
known about the City's plans for Rahn Rd. before I bought the property, I
would not have done so.
As I feel there was no benefit to my property from the reconstruction, but
a substantial loss, I will contest the assessment to Dakota County Court if
need be. I only hope the Council can see the rationale for my objection to
the special assessment agaiFlSt my property and drops irt, thus saving myself
and the City any legal costs.
I have had this assessment reviewed by a number of civil engineers,
building contractorsy developers and lawyers. None can find any
justification in the assessment as none see any way Rahn Road
reconstruction did anything but lower the fair market value on my property.
Sincerely,
Nathan R. Benoy

RE: Rahn Road Appellants' Motion for Costs "
?07'25-- oao- o?
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 Villaqe 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
tY:e sum of $5,593.00 as ordered by Judge Mansur.
If you have any questions or need any further information, please
contact me.

ISSUE
Appellants seek an award of costs and disbursements in the
aggregate amount of $5,593.
Based upon the trial, the arguments of counsel, the
Memoranda submitted, the file and proceedings heretofore had,
the Court
FINDS
1. That there is no issue as to the award of $193.00 of
costs per statute and service of process fees.
2. That the protracted hearings were necessary because the
appeal was of twelve (12) individual properties consolidated for
trial by Order of this Court dated October 28, 1992.
3. That the appraisal costs of .$350 per parcel is
reasonable, as is the cost of $100 per parcel for attendance at
trial by Appellants' expert.
4. That Appellants are entitled to reimbursement in the
aggregate sum of $5,593. ~
ORDERS
1. That Appellants are entitled to Judgment against the
Respondent City of Eagan, a municipal corporation, in the sum of
$5,593.00.
2. That the following Memorandum is incorporated herein by
reference.
3. There being no justifiable reason for delay, the Court

I hereby certify that the above Order modifies the ARTIN J MAN R

Date: March 2nd 1992 MEMORANDUM
Roger W. Sames, Crt Admr By ?<J I, .?-C`ief Deputy
(Seal) Costs an is ursem -nts - At oral argument the issue was not
the amount or the reasonableness since it is slightly more 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 _disb.ursements 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 disbursements. 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 pravisions 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
aermane to the determination of the trial's outcome have not been
addressed herein.
The Court recognizes that there are two sides to this issue, .
and the City's case was fully, competently and fairly presented
2
to the Court. Appraisll or the properties was of the greatest
import to the tactfindex. As articulated in this Msmorandum and
in the Decembar 1II; 1991 Findinga, Qrder a»d Memorandum, in the
Pactfinder's view, the Facts tend to support Appellants.
The crux oP Appellants' olalm is that the City unfairly
asse.sgsd them Por street improvements. The etandard for valid
special assessments is: (1) the land must 'receive a apecial
benafit from the impr'ov$ment being constructed; (2) the
assQSSment must be unitorm upon the same alass of property, and
(3) the aosessment may not exaeed the special benefit. C1r1`son__
Lanct R?g-i1`ty Co, v. CJt,y of Win 3dm, 307 Minn. 368, 363, 240 N.W.2d
5170 519 (Minn. 1976). Special bensfit is measured by the
increase in the markst value of the land owing to the
improvement. id. zn appraising the aubject property, an
appraiser determi nes what 'a willing buyex would pay a willing
se11er aCor the property before, and then after, the improvement
has been constructed. ,?. While the government entity ia
presumed to have set the assessment legally, an appellant may
overaome the presumption by introdu4ing cpmpatent evidence that
the assessment is greater.than the increase in market val.ue o£
the property due to the improvement. ZA. These are the criteria
whivh the Court applied to the Pacts pxessnted at trial.
It should be noted that in its Memoxandum supporting it's
motion for a new.trial or amended findi,ngs, the City 'reliea on
villagQ of F.3in-± v ilo§22h, 264 Minri. 84, 199 N.W.2d 809 (1962).
zn that case, the residents whose property abutted the i.mproved
3
ccio 1UJlN30-l?nUo loI JlsI Q 0o d1G>1HQ 91:2T 'c6iLZi T 0
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." Villaqe of Edina v. Joseph, 119 N.W.2d at 818. -\ Minnesota has also adopted a specific test, as cited in
Carlson-Lana Realtv Co., above, which this Court has chosen to
apply. While the City asserts that Villaqe 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. ?
Both parties attempted to establish evidence of the ?
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 available 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. DanielsIs 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,
testif ied 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 partyrs 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. ,

IiEMORANDOH
The assessment of benefit to Appellants' properties as
indicated in the assessment roll was sufficient,ly 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 city'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 cityI s value witness testified from his
10
_ . ,
,
knowledge of the area, the builder whom he was acquainted with,
and some comparables, and then he cQncluded that the properties
benef itted in the amount that he testif ied 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
?
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.

I+MORANDUM
The assessment of benefit to Appellants' properties as
indicated in the assessment roll was sufficiently 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 3cf 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 city'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
benef itted in the amount that he testif ied 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
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.

After inUoduction by Mayor F.g?ie and City Administrator Hedges, Director of Public Works Tom
Colbert provided a briet overview of the assessments and the neighbor6ood meeting bcld on Juae 11, 1991. He
6aid scventy propertics with dirc.ct access onto Rahn Road reaeived notioes of assc«mcnt on this projcct.
Mayor Egan t6en opened the public 6eariag to public comment. Mr. Charlcs MacDoaaJd, oi 4145 Rahn
Road, said 6e had Ciled written objediod:E6.1he assessments agaiast his property. Mr. MacDoaald said the value
of his home had actually droppcd because::ot the upgrade of Rahn Road and the resultaat 6esvy trafiic. He sa;d
evidence of that is the Dakota County Assessor'a 6ffct {owzriag the value of his homc by a S percent due to
Rahn Road. • • • .
Mayor Egan asked Mr. Bill Petttwa? of ?hc:?Coiitiry:As$C'ssor'a office to ezplain the 5 percent deduceion
Gom property taxes because a number ot homeowners had referenced it in eonnection wit6 the Rahn Road
improvements. Mr. Petersoa said a misunderstandiag eaosts among the bomeowers as to tbe meaning of the S
percent moditier. Ne said the modilier has been used since 1983 and was used for property along Rahn Road.
lt was done, however, for 1990 valuations and, theretore, preceeded teconstruction of Rahn Road. T6e Dakota
County Assessor's oftice u.ses mass appraisal and deals with avtrages and norms. He said tbey use a atandard
aite value and then look at each property and add or s?tbtr*ci:fr?itin this standard value considering a number of
[aaots, including being located on a major.str?eE:??: ?e: sa3d ihe County As.sessor's oftiee uses modificrs quite

Mr. Marti Weideahah, of 4345 Raha.?9?6ad, said..p??idening and improving Rahn Road had compounded
the negative cftect of the road on their property. Ht:'t?ed xfiat..tbe State Attorney General has ruted that to
be assessed for improvements, the City has to prove benefit to::tbe property. He said his property could not be
worth more with more trafric.
Mr. Darrel) Haines, of 3990 Rahn Road, complained about the policy used for assessments, the loss of
6ome value and said additioaal properties on Bluestone, Carneliaa, Jade, Flint, etc. ahould ahare in the costs.

wished to note that the 544,000 assessment cAnstitutea LS perant of the cburcb's anneW budget. Director of

Mr. Terry Stover, o[ 3906 RaLw:Road, objec:ted to the asss«*++ents kvied agaiast Outlot A of the
Woodhaven Addition. He said that oudoc:does not have assess onto Rahn Road and, furtber, the development
plan for the property indicates that aecess?must be o6 Beau de Rue Drive. Mr. Stover said any pos.vbility of
sccess onto Rahn Road was a virtual imposv'biiity due to the new ttevadon of the road. He refened to the Iact
that several properties along Rahn Road were not assessed because t6ey had no driveway assess onto Rahn Road
and said 6e believed OuUot A was the only one without access being assesud. He said his property bas already
been assessed for improvements to Beau:de Rue.
•` Mr. Stover tben pointed out b4:p3ra1's los3W value because ot a permanent storm aewet easement
granted to the City. While he had receiv;od:38,000 fa"r;t6e easement, he said an appraiser had estimated the loss
to his property at betweea S17,000 and 518,000. Ms. Lcttie Knutsoa, of 2014 Shaft??:?tnie;?said:sh C.hB;t .?:?gaiage with sccess oPt Rahn Road but her bome

S98,000 and now the Couaty tax assessor 6ad indicated the value as $91,000. Sbe esked why her property values
had gone dowa.
Mr. Paul Notterman, of 4374 Rahn Road, said it only took commoa sense to realiu that values had gone
dowv with the widening and repairing of Rahn Road. . Mayor Egan then asked City Attm:jiii;S#icldos to explain the process for objuxing to assessments.
Mayor Egan said the City Couacil.6ad:tto.choice'tiut to make this road improvement as Rahn Road in
its previous condition was no longer functioaA? e:?Wd it:.'tS.Qne o[ the fust teconstruction ptojetls in the City
and the City Council has tried to adopt a cost formiila Aat'::0*%y.believe equitable to all those concerned.
McCrea moved, Wac6ter soconded a motion to vose the public hearing, approve the final assessment

Annette M. Margarit
November 4, 1991
RE: Rahn Road Assessment Appeal ? SLQ V
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.

In Re: Assessments for Project 584, File No. C5-91-7756
known as Rahn Road Reconstruction
adopted by the City of Eagan on ORDER
June 18, 1991
-----------------------------------------------------------------
° The above-entitled matter came on for hearing before the
undersigned on the Special Term calendar of the Court on Monday,
October 28, 1991, at the Dakota County Judicial Center, Hastings,
Minnesota.
Annette Margarit, Attorney at Law, appeared on behalf of the
Respondent. Howard J. Groves, Attorney at Law, appeared an
behalf of the Petitioners.
The issue is the assessment for the improvement of Rahn
Road. The parties who are identified as the Petitioners
represent 12 property owners on Rahn Road and have filed a joint
appeal from the assessment promulgated by the Respondent City.
The City moves for severance and for separate trials for
.?
each of the Petitioners. Based upon the file, the record made,
the file and proceedings heretofore had,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:
1. That the Respondent-City's motion be and the same is
hereby denied.
2. That the following Memorandum is incorporated herein by
reference.

MEMOftANDUM
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 sub;ject properties for what the City
alleges to be improvements by the widening of Rahn Road.
The Petitioners contend that the impro"vements 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
.r
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 cauld
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 -0ctober 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 reiterated 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.
