Updates 2024 special assessment policies

Saint Paul file RES 26-692, before the Saint Paul City Council. Passed as of 2026-08-12.

Latest action: Passed

What it does

Your special assessment bill might shift. Property owners may see changes in how the city charges them for street, sewer, or other neighborhood improvements starting in 2024.

The bigger picture

City repair and upgrade costs shift to residents. How the city splits the cost of local projects between its general budget and individual property owners may change, affecting which neighborhoods get funded first.

What to watch

Some property owners may pay more. Owners on certain streets or in certain neighborhoods could face higher bills if the new rules shift more project costs to affected properties instead of spreading them citywide.
