Public asks whether local law changes access to assessment data; supervisor says it formalizes current practice
Summary
A virtual commenter asked whether the proposed local law would make assessment data easier or harder to access; Supervisor Stanley replied that the law "puts into place practices already being used," indicating no substantive change was asserted during the hearing.
During guest comments at the July 10 public hearing, virtual attendee Audrey Desjardins asked whether the proposed local law would make accessing assessment data easier or more difficult.
Supervisor Stanley replied that "this law puts into place practices already being used," suggesting the measure formalizes existing procedures rather than fundamentally changing access to assessment information. The hearing record does not provide further detail about what specific assessment records would be affected or whether any technical or procedural changes are required.
No formal vote or staff directive on assessment-data access was taken during the hearing; Stanley directed that questions about the local law and its adoption be addressed at the regular board meeting, where Town Attorney Dan Manning could advise. The meeting adjourned at 6:41 p.m.
