Office of the Assessor

The Assessor’s office is staffed by the Clerk of the Board of Assessors who is an elected official who estimates the value of real property within the City's boundaries. This value is converted into an assessment, which is one component in the computation of real property tax bills.

The Assessor’s Office maintains the assessment roll - the document that contains every property's assessment. To do this, the physical description, or inventory, and value estimate of every parcel of real estate in the municipality is kept up-to-date. The property inventory is available for inspection by appointment before the filing of the tentative assessment roll. The assessment roll shows assessments and appropriate exemptions. Every year the roll, with preliminary, or tentative, assessments, is made available for public inspection. After the Board of Assessment Review (BAR) has acted on assessment complaints and ordered any changes, the tentative roll is made final.

Please visits our Assessors FAQ page for additional information regarding the Assessor’s Office and your assessment. Additionally commonly requested documents can be found in out Document Library including exemption request documents.
