The valuation and assessment of property is the responsibility of the assessor’s office. The City of Monona contracts with a private firm, Accurate Appraisal, LLC., to perform the statutory duties of appraising all newly-constructed buildings and major remodeling of real property.

2010 Property Assessments
If your property has been reassessed this year, you will receive a letter from Accurate Appraisal, LLC, around June 1, 2010. (Please note that in prior years, you only received a letter if your assessment changed by more than $100. However, the City's new policy is for all residents to receive a letter of their assesment, even if the assessment has not changed.)
If you disagree with the assesment of your property or wish to speak with an assessor about how the assessment was determined, you can schedule an Open Book appointment. Your assessment letter will inform you of how to schedule these appointments.

12:00-3:00 pm & 4:15-7:00 pm
