Please be advised of the following requirements to appear 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.=20

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.=20

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.=20

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.=20

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 all the information
about income and expenses, as specified in the assessor's manual under
s. 73.02 (2a), Wis. stats., that the assessor requests.=20

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.=20

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.
