Assessment Information

Current annual installment means the annual payment on your special assessment balance. This includes interest and principal. Payment of the current installment is made at the Cass County Treasurer’s Office. The current installment is shown for informational purposes only and will remain disclosed here until the next year’s special assessment levy is processed.

Un-certified balance remaining represents the actual outstanding special assessment levies against your property parcel as of this date. The balance remaining can be paid in full or partially at the City of Fargo Collections office. If you choose to pay the balance remaining please call 701.241.1326 or fax the Special Assessments Office at 701.297.7993 for a payoff calculation.

Work complete (pending approval) represents the proposed actual amount of the special assessments from projects that have been completed and the final project costs have been determined. These assessments will be levied within a year. The amounts shown here will be the amount actually assessed unless a final change is made by the Special Assessment Commission or the City Commission in the final approval process.

Work in process (estimate only) represents an estimate of the special assessments that will be levied against your property in the future for special assessment districts that have been approved. These numbers are preliminary and are based upon project engineer estimates and are posted here to inform you of upcoming special assessments. Final numbers are subject to changes in final construction costs, final determination of the benefit to your property by the Special Assessments Commission and final approval by the City Commission. The timeline from this stage of the process until final approval of the final special assessment levy will vary depending upon the when the project was first bid and when the project construction is scheduled to be completed. It may take more than one year for projects to move from this category into work in process (pending approval) and the balance remaining column.

If there are multiple buildings on a parcel, such as apartment buildings or a commercial building and a residential building, there will be a segment for each building. The values, land size and building information displayed on each screen will be only for that segment. Ownership, legal description and school district will be for the entire parcel and will display the same for each segment.

For multiple segement parcels, total the values of all segments in order to get the total value for the entire parcel.

This is the current legal owner of this property according to our records. If there are any questions regarding ownership of this property, please contact us at 701.241.1340 for the information.

There are three school districts in the City of Fargo. Most of the Fargo School District is east of Interstate 29, West Fargo School District is mostly west of Interstate 29, and there are a few parcels in far southwest Fargo in the Kindred School District.

Story Height is for residential properties only and can be one of the following:

• 1 Story
• 1 ½ Story
• 1 Story w/Attic (1 story with finished attic area)
• Bi-Level (traditional)
• Bi-Level w/Add (Bi-Level with a larger 1 story area at a different grade level)
• Split-Level
• 2 Story
• 2 Story Split (similar to a Split-Level but, with highest level a full 2 story)
• Unique (ones that cannot be classified into any of the above)

The first set of appraised values (labeled "Current Certified") are the figures as of the most recent certified assessment roll. This is usually done around the middle of April for the property tax bill that will come out the following December.

NOTE: If there are no figures in the first set of appraised values, that means that this is a new parcel number that has resulted from a previous parcel being split, combined or re-platted. Call the Assessor’s Office if the history of the transaction is needed.

Special assessment square footage is the total square footage of the lot. The special assessment square footage is used for calculating special assessments.

The special assessment front footage is the number of lineal feet a property occupies on the street(measured across the front of a property). A thirty five foot offset is used in determining the special assessment front footage. The special assessment front footage is used for calculating special assessments. On an irregularly shaped lot, the front footage used for calculating special assessments may differ from the front footage of the lot.

Deferred Balance represents the amount of the special assessment that has been delayed as of this date. The length and terms of the deferral amount are written in the deferral agreement for each individual parcel.
