(KNSI) — The Sartell City Council says it has approved a flat property tax rate for 2022.
The city says if a property’s market value has increased, property owners will see an increase in their city tax portion of their taxes, but the city does not control the market value of a property. That is done at the county level by local assessors. The county sends out valuation notices in the spring for the following year, and officials say if you have a question about valuation should go to the county assessor.
Property tax statements from the county are coming out in November.
A press release from the city says property taxes are made up of three components: city tax, school tax, and county tax. The city tax portion of that will be kept at a flat rate. City property tax is used for several items like streets, police and fire service, parks, snow removal, community center amenities, and disability access.
