Two (2) years ago, we 35 went through a reassessment process for the town. You must be within 10% above or below 36 100% of equalized to assessed valuation. We have since slipped to 80% in 2 years. The 37 compliance clock is now running. Mark Brown is here from Associated Appraisal to speak 38 tonight. Wisconsin Department of Revenue states that we could do an interim market update 39 which would bring everything back into compliance. It’s the same process that was done in 40 2024, but people would not be going door to door. The Assessment itself would be roughly 41 $45,000 with the annual maintenance in 2027 of $19,950.

The Door County Comprehensive 7 Zoning Ordinance requires accessory structures on lots without an associated principal 8 structure to be a maximum of 120 square feet, not greater than 13’ 6” in height, and have 9 no water, sanitary waste disposal or electricity services connected to the structure. 10 Wait stated the plan commission heard this on August 3rd, and they were unanimous to send a 11 recommendation of support to the Town Board. The reason’s in in keeping it residential. There 12 are only a handful of parcels that fall into this category that a single parcel is split by a roadway 13 but is still one parcel but considered two. There would not be an additional driveway. There was 14 support from the neighbors. The draft report did indicate that there was room on the south side 15 of home, but in doing this, they would take down less trees. This building will not have any 16 living quarters. It is consistent with the Town’s Comprehensive Plan. The Plan Commission 17 looked at it as a single lot. We ask the Board of Adjustment to do the same. This will be heard 18 on August 25 at the Board of Adjustment. Motion by Denil and second by Haen to send a 19 recommendation of support on to the Board of Adjustment.
