Notice of Municipal Revaluation in 2025 for the Village of Lone Rock, Richland County, Wisconsin

January 1, 2025

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Village of Lone Rock, Richland County, Wisconsin (herein after “Village”) will be conducting a Village-wide revaluation for the 2025 tax year as required by state law. The Village will be undergoing a municipal-wide exterior revaluation of all taxable property under Wisconsin Statutes 70.05.

The last time the Village performed a revaluation was 9 years ago in 2015. 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.

Municipal Group, LLC, a private assessment firm from Stevens Point, WI, has been retained by the Village 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 Municipal Group 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 Municipal Group, LLC at 715-204-4563 Monday through Friday 7:30 am to 3:00 pm. You can also reach the assessor by email at [email protected].

 

Posted this 31st day of December 2024 at the following locations:  Post Office, Royal Bank & Village Office.
