We in the Town will help with any questions that you might have on how thier property assessment was determined. The Assessors office maintains ownerships and transfer of properties for the assessment roll.  We pride ourselves with educated, fair, and equitable services to the people. Distribution of the tax burden rests on total value of the town.
