Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that she did not own the property during the time period in question.
Staff Comments: Property owners in St Paul are responsible for any pending assessments on their property. Since service was provided during this time period, staff recommends approving the assessment. Staff does want to note that the previous property owner did make a payment on 8/5/2022 in the amount of $224.30 that will be refunded to them. It is unclear whether the payment was intended to be applied to the Quarter 2 2022 or the Quarter 3 2022 invoice.
