Special assessments are fees imposed on a private parcel for a public project that benefits the property and its surrounding area.

MN Statutes Chapter 429 authorizes the City to levy special assessments to pay for projects such as improving streets, maintaining storm and sanitary sewers and systems, replacing street lights, improving park equipment and more.

Use the online Assessment Lookup database to find out if a specific property has been assessed. Properties may be selected by address or parcel identification number (PIN). Assessment and payment information is continuously updated. Contact Ashton Kogel, project engineer, at 952-949-8316 if you have questions about information found using the Assessment Lookup tool.
