Assessor

Responsibilities

It is the responsibility of the Assessor to discover, list, and value all taxable real estate and personal property in the Town of Granby. It is important that no property is omitted, that each property is assessed to the correct person or persons, and that each property is assessed uniformly and according to Connecticut State Law. These values subject to a 70% ratio, result in the Gross Grand List.

The Assessor then applies various exemptions as mandated by the Connecticut State Statutes and local ordinances including veterans, elderly, disabled, blind, farm, forest, and open space, etc. The final total, after exemptions are deducted, is the Net Grand List. It is this figure, coupled with local, state, and federal revenue, which is used to compute the local tax rate.
