The Assessors’ Office is responsible for discovering, describing and determining property value of all Real and Personal Property subject to property taxation, and must comply with Maine State Statutes, primarily Title 36 of the Maine Revised Statutes (MRS).

The Assessors’ Office prepares a list of these properties annually and commits the assessments to the Tax Collector for collection. The Maine State Department of Revenue Services audits the Assessing Office annually.
