CERTIFY 2017 DELINQUENT UTILITY ACCOUNTS SERVED BY CIRCLE PINES TO ANOKA COUNTY
Background
The Council annually certifies delinquent utilities to the County Auditor for collection with the following year’s property taxes.
Certain households located within the corporate boundaries of Blaine are serviced for water and sanitary sewer by the City of Circle Pines. Two such properties are delinquent in their payments and, because Circle Pines does not have jurisdiction to assess properties located outside of their boundaries, Circle Pines is requesting that Blaine certify the delinquent bills for collection with 2018 property tax bills. Notice has been sent by Circle Pines to the affected property owners regarding their respective delinquent bills. If payment is not received before the deadline for remittance to the county, the attached resolution authorizes Blaine staff to certify the amount due to Anoka County for collection with the 2018 property taxes.
The amount to be certified for collection is $1,078.12 for delinquent utilities.
Body
WHEREAS, the records of the Public Utilities Billing Department list certain accounts as delinquent; and
WHEREAS, pertinent Minnesota Statutes authorize certification of the delinquent accounts to the County tax rolls for collection.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Blaine that the City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to certify to the County Auditor the amount of these delinquent accounts, together with a legal description of the premises served, as set forth below:
