Assessment staff says inspections nearly complete; offers public meeting on revaluation
Summary
Assessment staff reported inspections are mostly complete and that the office is converting records from Vision to the town's Trio system; residents raised concerns about inconsistent interior inspections and notice letters, and staff offered to schedule interior follow-ups and a public meeting to explain results.
Josh, the town's reevaluation staff member, updated the board that inspection work for the revaluation is largely complete and that his team is now converting data from Vision to the town's Trio system to prepare records for next year.
Josh said the inspection work focused on verifying property characteristics and that the Trio conversion will make the town's records ready when the town moves systems: "By the time next year rolls around and you're ready to go into Trio, we'll have all the data inputted and ready to put into the town system," he said.
Residents questioned inconsistent interior‑inspection practices (one resident reported an inspector took pictures but declined to check upstairs). Josh said interior inspections can be harder to schedule but that residents who want an interior inspection may call the office to be put on a list for follow‑up; he also offered to schedule a public meeting to explain findings and answer questions if the board wants that outreach.
Board members asked the assessor to provide the property cards and to coordinate a public session with the clerk so the public can review methodology and ask questions before values are finalized.
