PROPERTY TAXES
The Village of Mukwonago collects all current year real estate and personal property taxes for Village of Mukwonago property in both Walworth County and Waukesha County.
Every year in October and November, each department head prepares the budget for his/her department. The Village Board approves the budget in late November/early December. After the budget has been determined, information is compiled to determine that tax levy, which is the amount needed through tax collection to cover Village costs. The tax bill contains your property proportionate amount for the School District, State, County, and Local taxing bodies.
