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 2 hours of the board’s first scheduled meeting, and the board may waive that requirement up to the end of the 5th day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the session is less than 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 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 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 5th day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the session is less than 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 objection has 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 with all the information about income and expenses, as specified in the assessor’s manual under s. 03 (2a), Wis. stats., that the assessor requests. The Town of Wolf River has an ordinance for the confidentiality of information about income and expenses that is provided to the assessor under this paragraph that 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 s. 19.35 (1), Wis. stats.
  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 unless the Board, in its discretion, has determined to grant a property owner’s or their representative’s request to testify under oath by telephone or written statement.
  8. No person may appear before the board of review, testify to the board by telephone, or contest the amount of any assessment unless, at least 48 hours before the first meeting of the board, or at least 48 hours before the objection is heard if the objection is allowed under s.70.47 (3) (a), Wis. stats., that person provides to the clerk of the board of review notice as to whether the person will ask for the removal of a member of the board of review and, if so, which member, and provides a reasonable estimate of the length of time the hearing will take.

Recycling guidelines

Recycling guidelines

The Town of Wolf River requires its residents to recycle.  Recently, a number of residents have become more careless when it comes to recycling and we need to redouble our efforts to get back on track when it comes to recycling to keep unnecessary items from going into our landfills.  The following is a list of items you should be recycling:

Plastics:  All food, beverage & household bottles, jars, and jugs.  Dairy containers and lids. Deli, bakery & produce containers and lids.   (NOT plastic wrap, plastic bags, Styrofoam, motor oil)

Metal:  Aluminum bottles & cans, steel, tin & bi-metal cans, beer & soda cans. (NOT aluminum pans or foil, empty paint cans or large/bulky scrap metal items)

Paper:  Newspaper & inserts, cardboard & paperboard (cereal box and the like), junk mail & catalogs, office & school paper, milk, juice, and soup cartons, phone books, magazines, & books.  (NOT paper contaminated with food or grease, tissue paper, gift wrap)

Glass:  Food & beverage bottles and jars, wine bottles, liquor bottles. (NOT window glass, ceramics, china or drinking glasses).

It is NO LONGER NECESSARY to separate these items as they will be separated at the recycling facility automatically.  You may place all items in a 30-50 gallon garbage can – remember that a real person has to lift this can so do not overfill it!

Items like tires, TV’s, bikes, computers and computer components, cell phones, microwaves, furniture, lawn chairs, washer, dryers, fluorescent bulbs, batteries, propane tanks are NOT ALLOWED to be recycled curbside.  These items must be recycled at the Winnebago County Waste Collection facility at the Sunnyview Transfer Station in Oshkosh.

For more information visit us at: www.WinnebagoCountySolidWaste.com or call 920.232.1850  or 920.727.2896.

***** If you have questions about the amount or size of your garbage please call Grachien in advance of pickup day at 920-982-4116.  If the amount of your garbage regularly exceeds the allowed amount (2 yards), you would fall under the commercial garbage amount and will need to make arrangements to have a container dropped at your site at your own cost for garbage pickup.

 

Thank you for being part of the solution and not part of the problem!!
