John Cartier told the commission that recent state-level statutory changes permit NCC to audit and review commercial property assessments; the change will delay the mailing of County and School tax bills until November. Cartier said the new due date for those tax bills will be Dec. 31, 2026, shifting the usual schedule for taxpayers and the town’s tax-collection calendar.

Commissioners did not vote on an action item related to the reassessment at the July 13 meeting; Dave Brenner and Scott MacKenzie had planned to lead a discussion on reassessment but tabled it following Cartier’s report. The Commission will revisit the issue once county timetable and administrative details are clearer.
