Property Assessments

The 2019 Tentative Assessment Role is expected to be filed this week, but no later than Monday, June 03, as the statutory deadline falls on a Saturday this year. Simultaneously, a letter will be sent to the owner(s) of any property with an assessment change. All property owners are encouraged to review their assessment for accuracy, noting that the date of valuation is July 01, 2018, and fair market value can be determined by dividing the assessed value by the 2019 equalization rate, .9475 (94.75%). Grievance Day is June 18, by phone appointment only.

Give a Hoot, Don't Pollute!

According to Harvard Health, a study conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1999 and 2000 found measurable amounts of one or more medications in 80% of the water samples drawn from a network of 139 streams in 30 states. Help do you part to address the problem by properly disposing of unused prescription drugs. The Scarsdale Police Department provides a Drug Disposal Unit that allows the public to safely dispose of prescription and over the counter medications. Neither medical waste nor sharps or accepted, though.
