Reporting live in mke, bl, fox6 news. Which gets us to this story about Big Box Stores. Many are appealing their assessed values in an attempt to pay lower property taxesa move costing local municipalities millions of dollars each year. Its an issue well be hearing more about in wisconsin. Fox 6s Brittany Shannon looks into the Dark Store Theory and how it could affect you. Shopping the Big Box Store. A place where you can find almost dozens of options. Theyre choosing this location because its desirable and its going to be beneficial to their company 22 54 but mayor Kathleen Ehley says. Big box stores are becoming bad business for local government. It would make me very hesitant to support a big box coming in 26 41 in the past four years, stores like target, lowes and firestone have sued their assessed values. Are too high by using a tax strategy called the Dark Store Theory. its a store thats dark. Its a store that has no lights on Pleasant Prairie assessor, rocco vita, says stores want assessors, like himself, to value their businesses the same as a closed or dark store. Now all of a sudden just for property tax purposes we have to consider using sales of of value for good thriving locations this target in the village was constructed in 2006 for 15 million dollars. The village assessed it around 12 million. But target claims its only worth 6. 5. If municipalities begin lowering values because of this Dark Store Strategy there will be a shift in taxes 09 a shift to homeowners. Pleasant prairie estimates homeowners would see an increase of property taxes. In wauwatosa. Taxpaye rs would see a jump of nearly 400 dollars. People do need to be aware of this the city is currently facing 12 appeals from Big Box Stores. Like lowes mdash;asses sed at 16 million dollars. But the company says. Its only worth seven million. The nordstrom is assessed at 29. 9 million. But the stores opinion of value is in legal fees each year for the past four years. Think of what we could do in our community with 275000 dollars tax attorney, don millis, represents about 60 Stores Across the state including wauwatosas target and nordstrom. He says Big Box Store properties are specificcally branded, making resale difficult. The issue is what is it worth to the market 07 and we know when the lowes store goes on the market, its going to sell for a lot less than what walmart put into it and thats just life this target on brown deer road closed earlier this year. Its listed price is 2. 5 million dollars. The Dark Store Theory argues Properties Like this one should be comparable to similar sized operating stores. What i object to is what assessors are saying is that the mere fact that a property is thats what the law and i dont think thats what appraisers would argue doesnt sound fair. Intuitively it doesnt make any sense for that reason, Curt Witynski with the league of wisconsin municipalities, is working closely with legislators, drafting a bill to close this tax loophole. Unless this legislation passes, there would be some noticeable effects over the next couple of years where this tax shift would happen thats why local governments have also passed resolutions asking for help. Boundaries and parameters and to provide clarity for our assessors because thats really whats being questioned. A loophole with the potential to cost homeowners big bucks when big boxes go dark.
