Wisconsin Dells Must Be Mindful of Special Assessment Tax

Voters want an Administration mindful of the impact projects can have on creating added cost in the form of special assessment tax.   This is increasingly important for the City of Wisconsin Dells while having a population of less than 3 thousand residents and experiencing the effect of the National trend where communities are home to a larger percent of elderly people.

Special assessment taxes are levied to fund a specific project that benefits only some of the citizens in the City of Wisconsin Dells.  Parking - more lighting are a couple of examples.  The amount of tax is based upon the benefits received , not on the value of the property owned.

Special assessment taxes are collected in a series of payments - which are spread over a period of years.  When the assessments have been paid in full, the special assessment district is dissolved and the tax is no longer seen on the bill sent from the Municipality.

Please vote Louis Kutzke for Mayor of  the City of Wisconsin Dells on February 20, 2018 in the primary election and then again on April 3, 2018 in the general election.
