Assessor Function
The
Tax Assessor is responsible for the valuation of all real property

assessments will remain the same between revaluations (our last

effect the value.
Examples of some of these changes can be, but is not limited to the

decks, garage (attached or detached) etc. If a tax payer should remove
any of the above items, their assessment may be reduced.
