Budget Process
Each Fall the Town Board holds budget workshops to plan the budget for the following year. This is followed by a public hearing that must be noticed at least 15 days in advance and include a summary of the proposed budget. After the public hearing, the town tax levy must be approved by the electors at a special meeting that is also posted at least 15 days in advance. Then the Town Board must formally adopt the budget.
A public hearing for the 2026 Town Budget was held on Monday, December 1, 2025.
Immediately following the public hearing, a Special Town Meeting of the Electors, called by the Town Board pursuant to s.60.12(1)(c), Wis. Stat., was held to adopt the 2025 town tax levy, to be paid in 2026 pursuant to s.60.10(1)(a), Wis. Stat.
Property Taxes
2025 Property Tax bills were mailed the second week of December. If you have not yet received yours, they are also viewable on Access Dane, or you may contact the Town Clerk-Treasurer for a copy. First installment payments are due to the Town Treasurer by January 31, 2026. Taxpayers taking advantage of the second installment option will receive a bill from the Dane County Treasurer, which will be due by July 1, 2026.
