2018 Revaluation Notices

The 2018 State- Mandated real property reevaluation has been completed by Northeast Revaluation Group LLC. The letters which state the assessed values as of 12/31/2018 will be mailed on 1/18/2018.

If you have any questions or concerns about the new values, please follow the directions on the letter for any further action of your part.

Do not multiply the new assessment by the current tax rate as the tax rate will change because of the reevaluation and the new City budget.
