Last week, a candidate for City council mentioned never having seen a property tax bill - other than his/her own (not in a TIF district).
It occurred to me that most Minneapolis voters have no idea how the property tax system works in Minneapolis, so I prepared a spreadsheet for the ten parcels that I still own in Minneapolis.
Here is the breakdown of the $42,664.08 total tax bill:
$ 6.99 Met Council
9.87 Other Special Taxing Districts
25.96 Minneapolis Park Board
84.44 Hennepin County
96.46 City of Minneapolis
219.61 Solid Waste Management Fee
338.18 Minneapolis Library Board
1,358.09 Minneapolis School District 001
6,391.83 Fiscal Disparity Tax
9,468.68 State General Tax
24,663.97 Tax Increment Tax
I found this post very interesting. Here is concrete data. Where does the "Tax Increment Tax" actually go? Is it to a place that helps us less than other places?
