The Deerfield Board of Assessors approved minutes for the Feb. 3, 2026 meeting after a motion by Commissioner Charles Shattuck and a second from Commissioner Frank Leone; the motion carried 3–0.
The board recorded motor vehicle excise abatements "per attached list" and noted a signature stamp was used to process the items; the transcript does not provide line-item details of the abatements.
Under Other Unanticipated New Business the board discussed Map 183 Lot 3 and noted that a dental business at that property has been closed for several years; staff recommended changing the property card to land use code 101 (single-family home).
