CITY OF THE VILLAGE OF MINNETONKA BEACH NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of the Village of Minnetonka Beach, Hennepin County, MN

will hold a Truth in Taxation meeting on Monday December 2, 2024 at 6:00 p.m.

The Truth in Taxation meeting is an annual public meeting where the budget and tax levy for the upcoming year are discussed, and where taxpayers are given an opportunity to voice their concerns and comments over the jurisdiction’s proposed budget. All those wishing to be heard should appear at this time. At the regular City Council meeting on December 9th, the final budget will be adopted and tax levy certified to the County for taxes payable in 2025. Residents have received their Truth in Taxation notice from the Hennepin County Auditor showing the maximum property tax levy for 2025 which was based on a preliminary levy set in September. The statement has a breakdown of the maximum property taxes by county, city, school district and other taxing districts and the date and time for each entity’s hearing. Residents can attend and speak at any of the hearings shown on the notice. Residents often mistake this hearing with the annual Local Board of Review meeting when residents can appeal their property values. This meeting is called the Local Board of Review, and it will be in April.

Residential Brush and Leaf Pick Up

Brush is picked up at homes by Public Works spring through fall and should be 1" to 6" in diameter. Anything smaller than that is considered yard waste, and can be disposed of using the Republic Services Yard Waste Cart Program. Call 952-941-5174 for more information or to subscribe. Click on the Trash and Recycling Tab on the City website for more information.

Public Works also picks up leaf piles you can place at the edge of your property near the road during spring months and then again in the fall. The 2024 fall season leaf pickup begins October 15th. Piles must be leaves only and should not be placed in streets. If you hire a service to do your leaves they should haul them away. The way contractors crush and compact leaves with their equipment is not compatible with the City's leaf vacuum system. Contractors should not dump leaves in the City either - please report this kind of activity to City Hall at 952-471-8878. The City pays to dispose of leaves and there has been increased dumping of them in our City over the last few years.
