Is there assistance is available for low/moderate income property owners?
Property owners who have low/moderate incomes may qualify for assessment reduction through the City's Assessment Stabilization Program. The property must be owner-occupied and homesteaded.


Persons eligible for assessment reduction should contact the city's Special Assessment Clerk at 320-255-7212 within 10 days of the billing date of the special assessment bill.


A homesteaded property whose owner is 65 years of age or older or retired by virtue of permanent and total disability, and for whom it would be a hardship to make payments, may be eligible for a deferment of special assessments.
