I have been told that a number of our residents got assessments for their properties.

In case you don’t agree with assessment, you may want to appeal the assessment.

Finding the on-line appeal form is very tough (the people at the local office also had a hard time finding it).  These links are helpful, and when you click the first link (“Assessment Appeal Process” page), you’ll see a small yellow box in the top right-hand corner of the page.  That’s actually a link to on-line form (the only link on the page). 

The deadline for filing an appeal regarding the recent notice is February 11.
