In addition, you must complete an approve objection form and file it with the City Clerk (715-421-8200 or email jgossick@wirapids.org) prior to or within the first two hours of the Board's first scheduled meeting. PA-115A Objection Form for Real Property Assessment [PDF] PA-115B Objection Form for Personal Property Assessment [PDF] The Board of Review process operates like a court. Their function is not one of valuation, but of deciding the validity of facts presented orally before them. You or your representative may testify concerning your assessment objection. You must prove that your property is not equally assessed when compared to the general level of assessment within your tax district.
