Notice of Municipal
Revaluation in 2025 for the Town of Wascott, Douglas
County, Wisconsin
As required by state law, the Town
of Wascott will be undergoing a municipal-wide exterior
revaluation of all taxable property under Wisconsin
Statutes 70.05. The
last time Wascott performed a revaluation was 14 years
ago in 2011. To
ensure that an accurate revaluation is performed, it
will be necessary for the assessment staff to conduct an
on-site exterior review of all homes and commercial
buildings within the town limits as well as verbally
confirm/update the interior data of your
property. Assessment staff will begin inspections this
fall and conclude them in mid to late summer of 2025.
Each assessor will carry a letter of identification from
the town and a name badge identifying them; their
vehicle will also have an identifying tag. If you
have concerns about the person at your door, please call
the Town Hall at 715-466-4252.
Bowmar Appraisal, Inc., a private
assessment firm from Eau Claire, WI, has been retained
by the Town of Wascott to complete the revaluation for
the 2025 tax year. The revaluation will establish new
assessed values in an equitable fashion for all
properties in the town at 100% of market value.
The new assessments will be
completed in the fall of 2025 and all property owners
will receive a written notice of assessment at that
time. You will then have an opportunity to discuss the
assessed values with Bowmar Appraisal staff members at
the Open Book session. After the Open Book session, the
Board of Review will conduct hearings to evaluate
evidence concerning any final challenges to the assessed
values.
Our goal is to conduct an
accurate and transparent revaluation. We greatly
appreciate your cooperation in the revaluation process
and ask that you direct any questions you may have
concerning the revaluation to Bowmar Appraisal, Inc. at
715-835-1141 Monday through Friday 8:00 am to 4:30 pm.
