Objections Must Be Filed with the City Clerk
Written or oral notice of intent to file an objection is due to the Clerk at least 48 hours before the Board of Review’s first scheduled meeting on Wednesday, June 7 at 6:00 pm in the Municipal Room a the Monona Public Library. Your written objection form (available from the Clerk) must be filed with the Clerk during the first 2 hours of the Board of Review’s first scheduled meeting but can be filed prior to that time.
If the Board of Review upholds the assessor’s determination and you are still dissatisfied, your remaining avenues of appeal are to the Department of Revenue or to Circuit Court, or you may file a claim of excessive assessment with the City.
There is a Guide for Property Owners available on the Wisconsin Department of Revenue’s website: www.revenue.wi.gov. This document contains valuable information on the property assessment appeal process.
For further information on how your property assessment was determined, go to the Assessor's website: www.accurateassessor.com. Additional assessment and tax information may be found on the Dane County real estate website: accessdane.co.dane.wi.us.
Just a reminder: your property’s assessment is NOT your tax assessment. The mil rate is created based on monies needed to fund the State, County, City, and School District portions of your property taxes. This mil rate is the amount charged to property owners per $1,000 of property value to collect the funds required by these entities to provide their programs and services. If you think your taxes are too high, you should contact the officials from these entities who are responsible for making spending decisions.
If you have any further questions, please contact the City Clerk at 608-222-2525.
