TOWN OF SPRING BROOK BOARD OF REVIEW NOTICE |
|
Notice
is hereby given that the Adjourned
Board of Review for the Town of Spring Brook, Please
be advised of the following
requirements to appear before the Board of Review and procedural
requirements
if appearing before the Board: 1.
No
person will be allowed to appear before the Board of Review, to testify
to the
Board by telephone, or to contest the amount of any assessment of real
or
personal property if the person has refused a reasonable written
request by
certified mail of the Assessor to view the property. 2.
After
the first meeting of the Board of Review and before the Board’s
final
adjournment, no person who is scheduled to appear before the Board of
Review
may contact or provide information to a member of the Board about the
person’s
objection, except at a session of the Board. 3.
The
Board of Review may not hear an objection to the amount or valuation of
property unless, at least 48 hours before the Board’s first
scheduled meeting,
the objector provides to the Board’s Clerk written or oral notice
of an intent
to file an objection, except that upon a showing of good cause and the
submission of a written objection, the Board shall waive that
requirement
during the first two (2) hours of the Board’s first scheduled
meeting, and the
Board may waive that requirement up to the end of the fifth (5th)
day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if
the
session is less than five (5) days with proof of extraordinary
circumstances
for failure to meet the 48-hour notice requirement and failure to
appear before
the Board of Review during the first two (2) hours of the first
scheduled
meeting. 4.
Objections
to the amount or valuation of property shall first be made in writing
and filed
with the Clerk of the Board of Review within the first two (2) hours of
the
Board’s first scheduled meeting, except that, upon evidence of
extraordinary
circumstances, the Board may waive that requirement up to the end of
the fifth
(5th) day of the session or up to the end of the final day
of the
session if the session is less than five (5) days.
The Board may require objections to the
amount or valuation of property to be submitted on forms approved by
the
Department of Revenue, and the Board shall require that any forms
include
stated valuations of the property in question. Persons
who own land and improvements to that land may
object to the
aggregate valuation of that land and improvements to that land, but no
person
who owns land and improvements to that land may object only to the
valuation of
that land or only to the valuation of improvements to that land. No person may be allowed in any action or
proceedings to question the amount or valuation of property unless the
written
objections have been filed and that person in good faith presented
evidence to
the Board in support of the objections and made full disclosure before
the
Board, under oath, of all of that person’s property liable to
assessment in the
district and the value of that property. The
requirement that objections be in writing may be
waived by express
action of the Board. 5.
When
appearing before the Board of Review, the objecting person shall
specify in
writing, the person’s estimate of the value of the land and of
the improvements
that are the subject of the person’s objection and specify the
information that
the person used to arrive at that estimate. 6.
No
person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board by
telephone
or object to a valuation if that valuation was made by the Assessor or
the
Objector using the income method of valuation, unless the person
supplies the
Assessor all the information about income and expenses, as specified in
the Assessor’s
manual under Sec. 73.02 (2a) of the Wisconsin Statutes, that the
Assessor
requests. The Town of Spring Brook has a
resolution for the confidentiality of information about income and
expenses
that is provided to the Assessor under this paragraph which provides
exceptions
for persons using information in the discharge of duties imposed by law
or the
duties of their officer or by order of a court. The
information that is provided under this paragraph,
unless a court
determined that it is inaccurate, is not subject to the right of
inspection and
copying under Sec. 19.35 (2) of the Wisconsin Statutes. 7.
The
Board shall hear upon oath, by telephone, all ill or disabled persons
who
present to the Board a letter from a physician, surgeon, or osteopath
that
confirms their illness or disability. No
other persons may testify by telephone. |
