Uniform property taxArticle VIII of the State Constitution requires the uniform taxation of property. Article VIII also provides the followingproperty taxation standards: Legislature prescribes taxes on forest property Taxation of agricultural land and undeveloped land does not need to be uniform with the taxation of otherreal propertyThe state legislature enacts all property tax and assessment laws. The property tax assessment laws are covered inChapter 70 of the Wisconsin Statutes.III. Assessment and Its PurposeAn assessment is the value an assessor places on your property. This value determines what portion of the localproperty tax levy is covered by your property.General property tax componentsThere are two basic components in any tax, the base and the rate. Multiplying the base times the rate, determinesthe tax amount.1. Property tax base/rateThe base is the value of all taxable property in the district. The clerk calculates the rate after the governing bodyof the town, village or city determines how much money must be raised from the property tax. In Wisconsin, thetown, village,or city treasurer collects property taxes for the municipality, the school, the county and the state.The assessor of each taxation district determines the assessed value of all taxable property, with the exceptionof manufacturing property. The Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR) annually assesses all manufacturingproperty in the state. The assessor is appointed or elected at the local level.Back to table of contentsWisconsin Department of Revenue4

2019 Guide for Property Owners2. Assessed value vs. equalized valuea. Assessed valueThe value the local assessor places on each real property parcel and on each individual’s taxable personal property.Under state law, all non-agricultural assessments must be based on the property’s market value as of January 1.State law recognizes that every municipality cannot be assessed exactly at market value each year. The law requiresthat each municipality is within 10 percent of market value once every five years. Assessed values are used todistribute the municipality’s tax burden among the individual property owners.b. Equalized valueIt is necessary for the DOR to determine an equalized value by taxing jurisdiction. Equalized values are neededsince property is assessed in different taxing districts at different percentages of market value. Uniform valuesare called equalized values because local levels of assessment are equalized and all non-agricultural property arevalued on an equal basis, namely 100 percent of market value. The equalized values are used for apportioningcounty property taxes, public school taxes, vocational school taxes and for distributing property tax relief.Note: The assessed value is important for maintaining equity among individual taxpayers within the municipalitywhile the equalized value maintains equity between municipalities and counties.c. Uses of equalized valueEqualized values are used by the taxing jurisdictions (ex: school districts, counties, state) to apportion their taxlevies among municipalities. Apportioning is the process of dividing the tax levies for each taxing jurisdictionamong all of the municipalities that contain territory in the jurisdiction, based on each district’s total value. (ex: a statelevy would be apportioned among all of the municipalities in the state; an individual county’s levy among all of themunicipalities in the county; and a school levy among all of the municipalities in the school district).The value of all property in different municipalities (but in the same taxing jurisdiction) must be known to calculatehow much of the total tax levy to apportion to each municipality. The values determined by local assessors cannotbe used to apportion levies among different municipalities. To do so would violate the rule of uniformity, since theassessed values are not comparable among municipalities, whereas the equalized values are all at market value.This mathematical example helps show how equalized values are used.Example: County has within its borders three primary assessment districts: town, city and village County wishes to levy a property tax of 40,000 Since the county has no assessment roll of its own, it will apportion the total levy among the three primaryassessment districts by sending a bill to each of them Assessed and equalized value of three primary assessment districts and the county are shown belowLocalAssessed Value% to County Totalof Assessed ValueFull Value orEqualized Value% to County Totalof Equalized ValueRatio of Assessedto Equalized ValueTown2,100,00028.4 %2,000,00025.0 %105.0 %City4,500,00060.8 %5,000,00062.5 %90.0 %80.0 %VillageCounty Total800,00010.8 %1,000,00012.5 % 7,400,000100.0 % 8,000,000100.0 %Since the county levy is a levy on property, the most logical way to apportion that levy among the districts isaccording to the proportionate amount of property in each district.Back to table of contentsWisconsin Department of Revenue5
