Request to approve proposed ordinance changes to Charter Ordinance Section 3-131, regarding Board of Review meeting timing

This item proposes amending Charter Ordinance Section 3-131 to align the city's municipal code with current Wisconsin State Statute § 70.47(1). The existing ordinance requires the Board of Review (BOR) to convene starting on the second Monday in May. However, state law now permits BOR sessions to be held anytime within a 45-day period beginning on the fourth Monday in April.

The proposed change would grant the City more flexibility in scheduling the BOR, allowing it to begin earlier. This is particularly beneficial in a revaluation year, as it provides more time in the subsequent tax year. The amendment does not change the function or purpose of the BOR, only the permissible start date for its meetings.
