The Assessors are required to annually determine the full and fair cash value or 100% of the fair market value of all real estate. The Department of Revenue is responsible for reviewing assessments every three years, and that the assessors are complying with the statutes and that they do it fairly and equitably.

Assessors also provide a service to the community by providing access to property field cards, official tax maps, ownership information and property valuations.
