Box 2806 <br />Fargo, ND 58108 <br /> <br />Dear Cass County Commissioners, <br /> <br />The Kindred School Board recently met with Dennis Novacek of Dakota Ag Cooperative of <br />Kindred. We discussed their building expansion project south of Kindred. Dakota Ag asked for <br />a letter of support from the school for their tax relief request to Cass County. <br /> <br />The Kindred School Board met on October 11, 2005 and discussed this request. The Board <br />respects the fact that Dakota Ag is looking at all available financial options. There is no doubt <br />this expansion will add some growth to the Kindred community. <br /> <br />However, the School Board has taken the position to oppose this request for tax exemption. This <br />letter is follow up of the Board's position. Property taxes are a vital source of revenue for the <br />school district. The loss of this revenue would impact our school budget and ability to address <br />district needs. <br /> <br />Respectfully, <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />,/S )iev.e <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />/Jdi ,1 ~.." .... <br />/ I / <br />l' <br /> <br />t/ . <br />, 'v <br /> <br />Steve Hall <br />Superintendent <br /> <br />"Home of the Vikings" <br /> <br />- <br />
