🚧 Casey Park Update! 🌳

The Public Works Department has completed installation of the new playground at Casey Park on North Shore Drive! While the equipment is in place, the park will remain closed a little longer to allow the newly planted turf grass to become established.

The land for Casey Park was generously donated to the City of New Richmond in 2018 by Dan and Betty Casey, and it’s exciting to see this community space taking shape. Final improvements will continue over the coming days, and families can look forward to enjoying the park later this summer!

It's that time of year! ⛈️🌩️

Summer storms are in the area, and now is a great time to review your severe weather plans. We've included a graphic that helps explain the difference between a Watch and a Warning—a simple but important distinction when severe weather is possible.

Make sure you and your family know where to go during severe weather, how you will communicate if separated, and what emergency supplies you have on hand.

🔨 Planning a summer project? Before you start digging, building, demolishing, or creating your dream backyard oasis, make sure to check whether a building permit is required!

Whether you're adding a deck, putting up a shed, finishing a basement, building a fence, or tackling another home improvement project, a quick permit check can save you time, money, and headaches down the road.

Think of permits as the City's way of helping ensure your project is safe, meets code requirements, and protects your investment. Plus, nobody wants to hear the words, "You needed a permit for that?" after the project is already done. 😬

If you're not sure whether your project requires a permit, give City Hall a call before you get started. Our staff is happy to help point you in the right direction.

Build smart. Build safe. Build with confidence. 🏡👷‍♀️👷‍♂️

Have you received a Change of Assessment Notice and have questions about your property assessment?

The City's assessor, Accurate Appraisal, is available to help property owners better understand their assessment and answer questions about the valuation process. Open Book appointment times are available this week, but if those times don't fit your schedule, you can also connect with an assessor by phone or email at a more convenient time.

The easiest way to get started is to visit https://accurateassessor.com/ and click on "Open Book Assistant." Through this portal, you can review educational materials, submit questions, and schedule an Open Book appointment. Open Book provides property owners an opportunity to discuss their assessment directly with the assessor before the Board of Review process.

Residents are also encouraged to visit the City Assessor page for information about the assessment process, including Change of Assessment Notices, Open Book, and Board of Review:
https://www.newrichmondwi.gov/departments/assessor/index.php

Understanding the process and asking questions early can help ensure you have the information you need regarding your property's assessment.
