Record challenges to 2020 assessments now headed to court. By Jeramey Jannene - Mar 15th, 2021 07:20 pm //end headline wrapper ?>BMO Tower at 790 N. Water St. Photo by Jeramey Jannene.
Milwaukee’s 2020 assessment process generated a record number of appeals. So many that the city suspended the process for 2021.
Almost a year later, a record dollar value of challenges remains. The Common Council’s Judiciary & Legislation Committee recommended Monday to allow 94 unresolved claims, representing $876 million in city-assessed value, to go to court.
The city received 5,592 appeals in 2020. The overwhelming majority of claims came from single-family homeowners representing themselves and arguing over changes that would result in a property tax bill changing by a few hundred dollars. The Assessor’s Office and Board of Review resolved those claims, either adjusting the assessed values or denying the claim.

Three Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) bus shelters along S. 27th Street in Milwaukee have received a creative makeover that helps beautify the neighborhood while also celebrating the business corridor’s rich history.
The shelters at 27th and Oklahoma Avenue and 27th and Ohio Avenue now feature custom-made metal panels with die-cut U.S. Route 41 (Historic Highway 41) logos and messaging. The sturdy paneling, which is covered in a graffiti-resistant coating, replaces standard glass and plexiglass, which can easily become weathered, scratched, or broken.
The project was spearheaded by the South 27th Street Business District Association, Milwaukee County Supervisor Jason Haas, Milwaukee Alderman Mark Borkowski, and Milwaukee Alderman Scott Spiker.
