Fredonia renews three‑year assessment contract with Catalyst Tax
Summary
The board authorized a three‑year renewal with Catalyst Tax to continue assessor services with an approximate $500 annual increase; trustees debated whether to solicit alternatives but approved the renewal by voice vote.
The Village of Fredonia approved a three‑year contract renewal with Catalyst Tax to continue assessor services.
Administrator Jenkins said Catalyst is the village's current assessor and recommended renewing the contract for three years with a roughly $500 annual increase, noting assessing firms are fewer and there is no statutory obligation to seek multiple bids for a consulting service.

A trustee asked whether the village had sought cost comparisons; Jenkins said the village can look elsewhere if the firm materially increases fees, but he and staff said they were satisfied with Catalyst's work. A motion to renew the contract carried by voice vote.
