What is an Assessor?
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The Assessor is a local government official who estimates the value of real property within a city, town, or village’s boundaries. This value is converted into an assessment, which is one component in the computation of real property tax bills.  The Assessor is responsible to the citizens of Neptune Township for the fair assessment of all property in order that the tax burden be distributed equitably. This office strives to keep the public well informed on all tax assessment matters.
