RE: 2010/2011 Proposed Tax Levy and Budget Resolution No. 7035
DATE: August 31, 2010
Introduction
Attached is Resolution Number 7035, which sets the proposed maximum 2010/2011 tax levy.
Time frames
The existing law requires that Shakopee certify a proposed budget, budget hearing date and proposed
maximum tax levy to the county by September 15. The City has to certify the final levy to the county by
December 22, 2010.
Tax Lew
The proposed maximum tax levy for 2010/2011 is shown below. The decrease in the total gross levy is
$81,227 or 0.5% due to the decrease in the referendum based levy for the fire station bonds.
Proposed Levied
2010 2011 2009 2010
Operating levy $14,091,650 $13,819,194
City levy for EDA 80,000 0
2011 Fire Station levy 400,000 0
Debt service levy 145,788 898,244

1997 Fire Station levy referendum 120,000 201,227
Total gross levy 514,837,438 $14,918,665
The decision to reduce the levy can be made at a later date because it is the maximum proposed levy
being adopted now.
The levy for the 1997 fire station bonds is already set by previous action and is $250,261. Due to funds
on hand, the levy is being reduced to $120,000. This levy is on the assessed market value of real estate
and not the tax capacity value.
The estimated impact of the above levy on residential properties with the assessed value changes show
is:
