The Assessors' office is responsible for the administration of all laws and regulations regarding property tax assessment. The Assessors are required by Chapters 59, 60A, 61, 61B, and 121 of the Massachusetts General Laws (MGL), and various Acts of Legislator, to perform the appraisal of approximately 28,250 parcels of property annually. This includes residential, commercial, industrial, exempt, utilities, and personal property.
Additionally, we administer motor vehicle excise taxes, tax exemption programs, and abatement requests. We strive to address all concerns of the public professionally, courteously, and timely.
