How to Appeal your Assessment with the Board of Review
To be heard by the Board of Review, objectors are required to provide the City Clerk’s office with at least a 48 hour notice of intent to file, and that deadline is Monday May 27, 2019 at 8:30 a.m. The objection form, however, must be filed (in writing) prior to or during the first two hours of the Board’s first scheduled meeting. This includes giving an estimate of value. Paperwork to file with the City Clerk’s office to be heard by the Board of Review includes the following:
Certain exceptions to the 48 hour notice of intent deadline will apply in some cases:
First, objectors who file after the 48 hour notice deadline, but within the first two hours of the Board of Review’s first session on Wednesday May 29, 2019 between 8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., have an opportunity to be heard before the Board. The Board of Review is able to grant a waiver of the 48 hour notice requirement, but the objector is also required to show good cause for failure to meet the 48 hour notice requirement and explain such within their Notice of Intent paperwork for review and decision by the Board.
Finally, objectors who miss the deadlines explained above may still have an opportunity to be heard before the Board, and may file an objection form up to the end of the last day that the Board of Review is in session. Check with the City Clerk’s office for the date. No additional objection forms can be filed after that deadline. Objectors who file in this manner are required to provide and explain on their paperwork evidence of extraordinary circumstances, per state law, to be reviewed and decided by the Board.
Objectors are encouraged to review the 2019 Guide for Property Owners written by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue.
