2027 Assessment Equity Project

The beginning stages of the 2027 reassessment project are underway. The purpose of this project is to bring everyone to 100% full market value. It's important to remember this project will not raise tax dollars but is simply a way to ensure that everyone is paying their fair share of the tax levy, based on their value. Disclosure notices will be sent to property owners late February/early March of 2027. More information will be available on our website as this date approaches.
