Burhop, Planner DATE: August 12, 2015 RE: Annual Review of the Rural Service District (RSD) Parcels Summary The Rochester Code of Ordinances (#1466) requires an annual review of the Urban and Rural Service property tax districts within the City of Rochester. The City Planning and Zoning Commission conducts this review and recommends to the Common Council any changes that may be necessary. The required hearing on additions to the RSD will be scheduled for September 21, 2015, before the City Council. A 30-day notification is required for the hearing. Properties classified as a Rural Service District are largely undeveloped and do not make use of many of the municipal services; therefore, the municipal tax levy on the property is reduced. In order to qualify for a RSD classification, a property must: 1. be rural in character; 2, not be developed for commercial, industrial or urban residential purposes; 3, be part of a consolidated area over five (5) acres in size; and 4. be either unused or used for agricultural, forest, recreational, nursery or quarrying purposes. Ordinance No. 1635 states that the Common Council may determine that certain platted pieces of land may remain eligible for RSD status. The Council must determine that these properties are still rural in character and not developed for urban residential, commercial or industrial purposes. Additions to the RSD List "A" includes the tracts of undeveloped lands annexed into the City since the last update to the Rural Service District list until August 2015. Deletions from the RSD List "B" includes those tracts of land that because of their size (less than five acres), do not qualify for inclusion in the Rural Service District and should be removed. This list also includes parcels that no longer exist due to subdivision. List "C" includes tracts of land that are owned by the public or other tax-exempt entities. These lands should be removed from the RSD because they pay no property taxes. Attachments: 1. List of properties in each category 2.
