2008 Property Assessments

Many assessments may not change from 2007 to 2008

The Village Assessor continues to work on the revaluation of property in 2008, and an on-going assessment
maintenance program to try and maintain assessments at their Equalized Value or “Fair Market Value”. Over the past year, the Village Assessor has been performing inspections and reviewing assessed values.

Please note that many assessments may not change from 2007 to 2008, and only property owners whose property changes in assessed value will receive a “Change of Assessment” notice by mail.

The 2008 Board of Tax Review met for the first time on Tuesday, June 3, 2008 at 6:45 PM in the Village Hall Board Room and adjourned because of the unavailability of the completed assessment roll.

Property owners concerned about their assessment can schedule appointments with the Assessor during the Open Book Session. The Village Assessor will be available by scheduled appointment for open book review sessions on Tuesday, June 3, 2008 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, Thursday, June 5, 2008 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and Tuesday, June 10, 2008 from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the Safety Center (Police Department) at 5611 West Grange Avenue, Greendale, WI 53129. Property owners that wait until the end of the Open Book Session to schedule a meeting with the assessor may not get an opportunity to speak with the Assessor.
