RESOLUTION APPROVING PROPERTY TAX ABATEMENTS
OTTER TAIL COUNTY RESOLUTION NO. 2023-54
BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Otter Tail County, Minnesota (the "County"), as follows:
1. Recitals.
(a) The County proposes to approve tax abatements in connection with the construction of single family
homes (the "Projects"), The County proposes to use the tax abatements for the Projects provided for
in Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.1812 through 469.1815 (the "Abatement Law"), from the property
taxes to be levied by the County on Parcel Identification Numbers 53000140082007,
52000220154002, 09000100056001, 61000360175001, 54000240162002, 7 4000990721000,
32000070053001, 11000280190001, 52000280201001, 20000060036003, 32000320227001,
56000290223000, 58000300215000, 74000990749000, 28000320255002, 58000990483000,
58000990484000, 22000260228009, 32000990715000, 26000160099006 (collectively, the "Tax
Abatement Properties").
(b) The County proposes to approve tax abatements on a portion of the County's share of property taxes
on the Tax Abatement Properties in the amount of $10,000 for a term of up to five (5) years to finance
a portion of the costs of the Project.
(c) The tax abatement is authorized under the Abatement Law.
2. Findings for the Tax Abatement. The Board hereby makes the following findings:
(a) The tax abatement is the County's share of real estate taxes which relate to the Projects being
constructed on the Tax Abatement Properties and not the real estate taxes that relate to the value of
the land (the "Abatement").
(b) The Board expects the benefits to the County of the Abatement to be at least equal or exceed the
costs to the County thereof.
(c) Granting the Abatement is in the public interest because it will increase the tax base in County.
(d) The Tax Abatement Properties are not located in a tax increment financing district.
(e) In any year, the total amount of property taxes abated by the County by this and other resolutions and
agreements, does not exceed the greater of ten percent ( 10%) of the net tax capacity of the County
for the taxes payable year to which the abatement applies or $200,000, whichever is greater. The
County may grant other abatements permitted under the Abatement Law after the date of this
resolution, provided that to the extent the total abatements in any year exceed the Abatement Limit
the allocation of the Abatement limit to such other abatements is subordinate to the Abatement granted
by this resolution.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT, the Abatement is hereby approved. The terms of the
Abatement are as follows:
(t) The Abatement shall be for up to five (5) years anticipated to commence for taxes payable 2025 and
shall not exceed $10,000. The County reserves the right to modify the commencement date, but the
abatement period shall not exceed five (5) years.

The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was introduced by Commissioner Mortenson, duly
seconded by Commissioner Lahman and, after discussion thereof and upon vote being taken thereon, passed
