    In addition to open peer discussion, this month's session will cover the Wisconsin Policy Forum's Property Values and Taxes data tool. This interactive resource shows equalized property values and taxes levied by type of government at the municipal and county level. We'll walk through how to use the tool, compare communities and trends over time, and discuss how its data can inform local budgeting, planning, and conversations with residents.
