The Clerk provided the council an email from Romie Gessell questioning the value on his property.
Romie stated that the shed that was moved onto a new location on the property is smaller in size, has no cement floor, is not insulated and has no water and sewer. Amy and Laura explained that the previous years’ valuation on the shed that was moved was valued as unfinished. The current value of the shed that was moved with finished exterior is $20,700.00. Generally, property in the city noticed a 15%-20% increase over the previous year.
