(Spirit Lake)– County officials are sounding off on a new requirement through House File 718 that requires them to mail notices about budget hearings to property owners. Dickinson County Auditor Lori Pedersen says they didn’t get the needed information from the state for those notices until just days before the mandated deadline to get them mailed…
Pedersen says to her knowledge, hardly anyone received the notice prior to this (Mon.) morning’s levy hearing…
The $13,000 Pedersen eluded to is what it cost the county to send out the required notices.
