Taxable Property:

As required by Chapter 70 of the Wisconsin State Statutes, all taxable property in the city is listed at the value as of January 1 of that year. This assessed value placed on each property is used as the basis for taxation of that property. New construction, remodeling or sale of a property may result in a change in the assessed value of the property. The assessor's office still makes house calls to inspect new construction and remodeling projects throughout the city. Please call the city assessor to make an appointment.

In May of each year, the city's Board of Review meets. At this time, any residential or commercial property owner may appeal their property assessment. Factual information to substantiate property value must be presented at this time.
