How will a reassessment affect taxes?

The Assessor’s Office has no control over budgets; its only function is to reestablish the municipal overall assessment value. The budgetary levy is then divided by the overall rate-able assessment value to determine the tax rate. The budgetary levy accounts for:

  • County Budget
  • Fire District Budget
  • Library Budget
  • Municipal Budget
  • Open Space
  • School Budget
