The sheet rounds each rate to the cent, so rows can add up a dollar or two away from the total. At the county-average rate, a home with your market value would pay less a year (WI DOR, Town, Village and City Taxes 2025).

What comes back when the TIDs close

  1. TID 4 closes of the TID money
  2. TID 3 closes
  3. TID 5 closes

Until then the TID share stays on your bill: about more from your house before at today’s rates. When the value returns, three things take their cut first:

Future model
  1. On your bill today

    The TID share of your bill (in its “Local” line), every year until the districts close.

  2. Cut 1 · county, sewer district and MATC

    They split their levies by value outside the TIDs, so their rates here don’t drop at closure. Their never comes back.

  3. Cut 2 · the school’s state aid

    At closure the schools look richer to the state’s aid formula, which cuts about – a year. That is more than the school’s whole TID share, so its doesn’t come back.

  4. Cut 3 · the city’s levy increase

    State law (Wis. Stat. § 66.0602(3)(dm)) lets the city raise its levy by half of what the returning value would take off it, permanently and with no referendum.

  5. What comes back to you – a year

    Starting in : the city’s remaining , less the school’s extra.
