Grieving Your Assessment

If you want to grieve your assessment you will need to speak with the Assessor to receive the paperwork needed. You will then have to meet with the Board of Assessment Review.

This three-member board is appointed by the Town Board and meets annually for the sole purpose of guaranteeing taxpayers' rights by hearing real property assessment complaints and arriving at fair and impartial determinations regarding those complaints. New York State law requires that these proceedings be held on every fourth Tuesday of May.
