Board of Review

about the board

The Board is comprised of five citizens of the City appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the Council. This board meets once annually each Spring to review the Assessment Rolls as prepared by the Assessor, and make any corrections or omissions as necessary. They are also available to hear any property owner's objection to their assessment to determine if any adjustment is necessary. Each member is held to conduct the Board of Review according to the WI Department of Revenue Guide for Board of Review Members
