Kingfield Votes and You Can Help!

Kingfield is a neighborhood of Voters! Yet, even so, in municipal election years (like 2017) our voting population drops to half. Convinced we can do better, KFNA is working on a number of strategies to increase voter turnout in our neighborhood, and our broader community. Sign up to help on any of the following efforts or contact KFNA at info@kingfield.org and let us know your availability and interests!

Street Repaving Assessments: Avoid the Interest Fee and Pay Now

If your block was resurfaced this summer, your property was assessed for street resurfacing. Assessments of more than $150 are collected in five annual principal installments on the real estate tax statements beginning in 2018. Interest is charged on the assessments at a 3.9% rate. Want to avoid paying 3.9% interest? You can prepay your entire amount starting in November through the end of 2017. Call 612.673.2401 for a pay statement.

The City of Minneapolis will not be sending or publishing any further notices about prepayment for this street resurfacing assessment, but because KFNA cares about its neighbors, we’re reminding you here!

Quarterly Publications Share Events on Facebook
Fall | Winter | Spring | Summer October 2017

The Kingfield Neighborhood Association (KFNA) manages this List for the purpose of informing neighbors of events and issues that directly affect Kingfield neighborhood. This list is never shared nor sold to any other organizations. Kingfield is defined as 35W to Lyndale Avenue South and from 36th Street through 46th Street. All List recipients are invited to share neighborhood news with other members by sending messages to sarah@kingfield.org ; please indicate in the subject line that it is a message for the Kingfield E-mail List. All messages submitted by members for consideration of inclusion on the List must include complete contact information including name, phone, and email address. All messages will be screened and no partisan political messages will be posted. Ballot initiatives are not considered partisan political activity, and are permitted activities under KFNA's 501(c)(3) tax status.

The List Administrator will make the final decision as what information is posted to the Kingfield E-mail List and maintains the right to edit all messages. Many messages concerning neighborhood issues or questions we will simply answer directly, rather than posting to the entire list. Notices may also, or instead, at List Administrator's discretion be posted on the KFNA website
