These actions include <br />a public hearing and adoption of both a proposed and final tax levy. <br /> <br />The estimated levy, which was determined by preliminary work, is <br />recommended at $2,780,400, and a final amount will be known after <br />the budget hearings are completed. <br /> <br />Ramsey County has scheduled its publ ic hearing for December 19, <br />1989. <br /> <br />After discussion, the New Brighton public hearing has been scheduled <br />for December 18, 1989, at 7:00 p.m. Council selected December 26, <br />1989, as their date to reconvene if necessary. <br /> <br />Egan noted that the Ramsey County Property Tax Statements are <br />scheduled to be sent to property owners in mid-April. <br /> <br />Childs said the "Truth in Taxation Law" requires a City to publish <br />a quarter of a page notice in a daily newspaper informing the public <br />of the hearing. The notice will include an explanation of the tax <br />levy process and the public hearing date. <br /> <br />Benke feels the Public Hearing notice should also be published in <br />the New Brighton Bulletin. Childs will contact both editors of the <br />New Brighton Bulletin and the Focus to discuss the publishing of tax <br />levy articles. <br /> <br />Motion by Benke, seconded by Larson, to WAIVE THE READING AND ADOPT <br />THE RESOLUTION CERTIFYING THE PROPOSED TAX LEVY FOR 1990 AND <br />SCHEDULE THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR DECEMBER 18, 1989, AT 7:00 P.M. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried <br /> <br />The Citizen Study Committee is recommending that the 14th Annual <br />Town Hall Meeting be scheduled for Saturday, March 31, 1990. <br /> <br />The commi ttee wi 11 be submi tti ng a report to the Counei 1 of the <br />suggested discussion topics. <br /> <br />Motion by Benke, seconded by Brandt, to SCHEDULE THE 14TH ANNUAL <br />TOWN HALL MEETING FOR MARCH 31, 1990. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried <br /> <br />Council Business <br /> <br />1990 Tax Levy <br />Report 89-275 <br />Resolution 89-148 <br /> <br />Scheduling of 1990 <br />Town Hall Meeting <br />Report 89-276 <br />
