Rep. Doug Wardlow and Rep. Diane Anderson voted in favor of an omnibus tax bill that would phase out property taxes for businesses beginning in 2014.
A tax bill that would phase out state property taxes for Minnesota business owners passed the House last week in the Minnesota House—and Eagan legislators Rep. Diane Anderson (R) and Rep. Doug Wardlow (R) were among those who voted in support of the measure. The omnibus bill, which passed in the House on a 72-62 vote last Wednesday, would eliminate state business property taxes over a 12-year-span beginning in 2014. The bill also exempts some business property values from taxes in 2013 and freezes local government aid at 2012 levels.

Minnesota's business property taxes are higher than the national average, according to Finance and Commerce. "[…

Bob, Just FYI the two sites you refer to DO NOT produce any additional revenue for Eagan's general fund in 2013. The cite on Yankee Doodle (the Lockhead- Martin site I presume you're talking about) has not been approved for redevelopment and as such its property valuation and resulting contribution to the tax levy is FLAT between 2012 & 2013.
