Assessor's Office

The Department of Assessment is responsible for developing fair and equitable assessments for all property located in the City of Sheboygan.  In developing assessments we discover, list, and value all taxable property (this information is used to create the annual assessment roll).  The department adheres to established laws as set forth in the Wisconsin Statutes, and the staff is certified by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue to perform their duties.

If you do not find the information you need on this web site or feel a mistake has been made in valuing your property, please contact our office.

Personal Property 2010

The time is here to file the 2010 Statement of Personal Property with the City Assessor’s Office.  If you have not received your 2010 Statement of Personal Property, you may download the statement from the Wisconsin Department of Revenue website at www.revenue.wi.gov or we have statements available in our office for you to pick-up.

Statements are due on or before March 1, 2010.
  If you fail to file, the assessor must estimate the value of your property using the best information available.  This estimate is called a doomage assessment.  In addition, you shall be denied any right of abatement by the Board of Review, under Section 70.35(4), Wisconsin Statutes.  There will be no extensions granted.  As a result, if your statement is received after March 1, 2010, you will lose your computer exemption as per Wisconsin Statute 70.11(39).

If you have sold or transferred your business (or personal property), please write the new owner(s) name and address on the form and return it to our office.  Failure to notify our office of a change in ownership or location will result in an assessment based on the information we currently have on record.  Note:  Per Wisconsin Statute 70.13(6), there is no partial year or pro-ration for a business that has sold or moved after January 1, 2010.
 

Land Valuation

The valuation of residential land is based on effective frontage and effective depth.  A depth factor is applied on those lots greater or less than 120 feet in depth.  The square footage displayed with the parcel information does not determine residential land value

Commercial land is generally valued using the square footage of the land area.
