Truth in
Taxation
Hearing for
Taxes Payable in
2011
Welcome
December 6th, 2010
6:00 P.M.
Board Room-Marshall Middle School
Presented by:
Bruce Lamprecht
Director of Business Services
ISD 413, Marshall
Truth in Taxation Law
State law initially approved in 1998
The 2009 legislature made several changes:
Property tax hearing can now be held a regular meeting. Hearing
must be at 6:00 PM or later. Levy may be adopted at the same
meeting.
Requirement to publish meeting notice was deleted.
All school districts must now hold a hearing. Previously some
districts were exempted from the requirement to hold a hearing.
Your are here for the school district’s annual required hearing
ISD 413, Marshall
Tax Hearing Presentation
State law requires that we present information on the current
year budget and actual revenue and expenses for the prior year
State law also requires that we present information on the
proposed property tax levy, including:
The percentage increase over the prior year
Specific purposes and reasons if taxes are being increased
District must also allow for public comments
Agenda for Hearing
A. Background on School Funding,
Property Tax Levies, and Budgets
B. Information on District Budget
C. Information on the District’s Proposed
Tax Levy for Taxes Payable in 2011
D. Public Comments and Questions
State of MN Constitution
“ARTICLE XIII MISCELLANEOUS SUBJECTS
Section 1. UNIFORM SYSTEM OF PUBLIC
SCHOOLS. The stability of a republican form of
government depending mainly upon the intelligence
of the people, it is the duty of the legislature to
establish a general and uniform system of public
schools. The legislature shall make such provisions by
taxation or otherwise as will secure a thorough and
efficient system of public schools throughout the
state.”
… School District Revenues and Taxes
As a result
Are Highly Regulated by the State
State sets formulas which determine revenue; most
revenue is based on specified amounts per pupil
State sets tax policy for local schools
State sets maximum authorized property tax levy
(districts can levy less but not more than amount
authorized by state, unless approved by the voters)
State authorizes school board to submit
referendums for operating and capital needs to
voters for approval
State Funding for Schools Has
Not Kept Pace with Inflation
Increases in basic general education revenue per
pupil have been less than inflation
Per-pupil revenue for fiscal year 2010-11 is $594
below the 2002-03 inflation adjusted amount
For Fiscal 2012 and 2013, per-pupil funding is not
projected to increase, possibly decrease, while most
districts’ expenses will increase by at least 1-3%
annually.
Impact is budget cuts and levy
referendums…
With no increase in state funding many districts are
facing projected budget shortfalls for FY 2012 and
anticipate the need for budget cuts.
To meet local school budget shortfalls, on 11/2/10,
77 Minnesota districts submitted proposals to voters
on seeking support of increased operating levies: 43
Districts or 56% passed at least 1 operating levy
question, 34 failed.

School Levy vs. Budget Cycle
Unlike cities and counties, a school district does not
set its budget when setting the tax levy
Property Tax Levy
Final levy set in December
Property taxes levied on calendar year basis
Budget
Final budget approved in June, six months later

Change in Tax Levy Does not
Determine Change in Budget
Tax levy is based on many state-determined
formulas
Some increases in tax levies are revenue
neutral, offset by reductions in state aid
Expenditure budget is limited by state-set
revenue formulas, voter-approved levies, and
fund balance, not just by tax levies

The Revised General Fund Budget for 20102011 shows a $793,759 excess in revenues
over expenditures. This is due to the Federal
ARRA Stimulus and Edujobs one-time funding
This translates into a $2,922,492 ending fund
balance or a 14.23 fund balance percent with
a stated, approved goal of 8.0% (fund
balance/expenditures) being the minimum.

Impact on taxpayers
ISD 413, Marshall
Authority for School Levies
A School District Tax Levy must be either:
Set by State Formula
or
Voter Approved
Property Tax Background
Every owner of taxable property pays
property taxes for the various ‘taxing
jurisdictions’ (county, city or township, school
district, special districts) in which the property
is located
Each taxing jurisdiction sets its own tax levy,
often based on limits in state law
County send out bills, collects taxes from
property owners, and distributes funds back
to other taxing jurisdictions
School District Property Taxes
Each school district may levy taxes in up to
30 different categories
‘Levy Limits’ (maximum levy amounts) for
each category are set either by:
State law, or
Voter approval
Minnesota Department of Education (MDE)
calculates detailed levy limits for each district
Property Tax Background
School District Property Taxes
Key steps in the process are
summarized on the next slide
Any of these steps may affect the taxes
on a parcel of property, but the district
has control over only 1 of the 7 steps
SCHOOL DISTRICT FUNDS
The school district has three revenue and expenditure funds that receive local tax levies to help support the
various programs included in the funds.

or
4.09%
ISD #413
However, because of an almost 12% increase in our
2009 Adjusted Net Tax Capacity, even with the levy
increase, chances are your property tax bill for school
purposes will not increase and, in fact, maybe
decrease some for pay 2011 if your property value
remained constant or decreased.
Each property taxpayer’s situation is different so
please check your own individual truth in taxation
statement.

Changes in Market Value
The market values are final and are not a
subject for the upcoming budget hearings.
They were discussed at the local board of
review and county board of equalization
hearings held earlier this year. The final
taxable market values may reflect a reduction
under the limited value law. If this property is
a qualifying homestead, the final taxable
market values may exclude improvements
which you made to this property.

Minnesota Department of Revenue
(651) 296-3781
Senior Citizen Property Tax Deferral

of $60,000 or less to defer a portion of the property taxes on
their home
Taxes paid in any year limited to 3% of household income for
year before entering deferral program; this amount does not
change in future years
Additional taxes are deferred, but not forgiven

attaches a lien to the property
The deferred property taxes plus accrued interest must be paid
when the home is sold or the homeowner(s) dies
