TAX EQUALIZATION BOARD, Convened for 2014 and recessed until June 16th <br /> Chairman Pawluk convened the Cass County Board of Tax Equalization for 2014. Frank <br /> Klein, Director of Equalization, referred to his letter dated May 23, 2014, concerning the <br /> annual equalization of assessments. Mr. Klein said he anticipates the Cass County net <br /> taxable valuation to increase at least 5%. <br /> Mr. Klein said the assessment sales ratio study indicates Cass County is not in compliance <br /> with residential and commercial assessments outside Fargo and West Fargo. He discussed <br /> mass assessment recommendations for various jurisdictions which are warranted to <br /> equalize assessments. He said the last time the county made mass assessment <br /> adjustments was in 2008. All entities have been notified of his recommendation. <br /> MOTION, passed <br /> Mr. Vanyo moved and Mrs. Scherling seconded that the assessments in <br /> the following cities and townships be increased as recommended by the <br /> Director of Equalization: On roll call vote, the motion carried <br /> unanimously. <br /> Jurisdiction Recommended Increase Land & Building <br /> Casselton City 5% Residential and 5% Commercial <br /> Amenia City 5% Residential and 5% Commercial <br /> Arthur City 5% Residential and 3% Commercial <br /> Argusville City 10% Residential and 5% Commercial <br /> Horace City 10% Residential and 5% Commercial <br /> Hunter City 4% Residential <br /> Leonard City 6% Residential and 6% Commercial <br /> Tower City 6% Residential and 3% Commercial <br /> North River City 10% Residential <br /> Oxbow City 6% Residential <br /> Amenia Township 6% Residential <br /> Ayr Township 6% Residential <br /> Berlin Township 6% Residential <br /> Casselton Township 6% Residential <br /> Dows Township 6% Residential <br /> Empire Township 6% Residential <br /> Erie Township 6% Residential <br /> Everest Township 8% Residential and 5% Commercial <br /> Gill Township 6% Residential <br /> Gunkle Township 6% Residential <br /> Highland Township 6% Residential <br /> Hill Township 6% Residential <br /> Hunter Township 6% Residential <br /> Lake Township 6% Residential <br /> Noble Township 6% Residential <br /> Normanna Township 3% Residential <br /> Pontiac Township 6% Residential and Commercial <br /> Rich Township 6% Residential <br /> Rochester Township 6% Residential <br />
