Rock County denies three homestead exemption applications after brief BOE session
Summary
After a short Board of Equalization session, Rock County commissioners denied three homestead exemption applications that exceeded the state’s maximum county value allowed. The board entered BOE at 12:01 p.m. and exited at 12:02 p.m.
Assessor T.J. Ellermeier presented homestead exemption applications Nov. 5 that exceeded the state’s maximum county value allowed for homestead exemption eligibility. The board briefly convened as the Board of Equalization and then moved to deny three applications.
Chairman Wade Hollenbeck moved to enter the Board of Equalization at 12:01 p.m.; the motion (Sybrant second) passed unanimously. Commissioners reconvened at 12:02 p.m., and a subsequent motion by Sybrant, seconded by Lloyd Smith, denied the three applications for exceeding the allowed county value. The roll call votes for each motion were recorded as all for, none against.
The minutes do not list the applicants’ names or the exact assessed values that caused the applications to exceed the county maximum; the assessor recorded that the exemptions were over the permitted county value under state rules.
