RESOLUTION SUPPORTING HF 2143
CHANGE IN AID FORMULA
Clarkson
WHEREAS, one of the factors included in the Minnesota Local
Government Aid Formula is population, and
WHEREAS, the population that the current law specifies that
must be used is the 1970 Federal Census, and
WHEREAS, a more equitable basis would be to change the ex-
isting law so that population determined by a Federal Census subsequent
to 1970 would be required to be used by the Minnesota Department of
Revenue in determining each local share of Local Government Aid, and
WHEREAS, HF 2143, if adopted as law, would allow the use of
the most recent Federal Census in the formula used to calculate Local
Government Aid.
BE IT, THEREFORE, RESOLVED by the City Council of the City
of Lakeville that it does hereby urge the Minnesota Legislature to
adopt HF 2143.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk is hereby directed
to mail copies of this resolution to this City's representatives in the
Minnesota Senate and the Minnesota House of Representatives and to
William Kelly, Chairman of the House Tax Committee.
ADOPTED this 17th day of February, 1976.
