Manitowoc Co. v. City of Sturgeon Bay

Court of Appeals of Wisconsin

Decided December 11, 1984No. 83-2340PublishedCited by 11 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtCane, J.

The Manitowoc Company appeals a judgment dismissing its claims for a refund of property taxes paid to the City of Sturgeon Bay. The judgment also dismissed Manitowoc’s request for declaratory relief from future tax assessments. Manitowoc contends that two graving docks used in the construction and repair of ships are manufacturing machines that are exempt from property taxes. The trial court determined that the graving docks are not exempt because they are not used exclusively for manufacturing as required by sec. 70.11(27), Stats.
