Annual Reassessment
The Town of Manlius has implemented Annual Reassessment since 1974. Initially, as a pilot municipality for NYS and, in latter years, to maintain the quality and level of assessment for which the Town is known statewide. Some benefits of Annual Reassessment are:
1. It maintains equity in the assessment roll.
2. Assessments reflect current market.
3. It is easier for the property owners to understand.
4. It keeps the Town in compliance with the Real Property Tax Laws.
5. State Aid to the Town of $5 per parcel.
The values indicated in the "Change of Assessment Notice" received by property owners are the results of the market study of property sales for the past two years within our Town. The market continues to show substantial increase in property values.
Grievance Day is May 27, 2008. You should file your Grievance Form RP-524 with the assessor four workdays prior to grievance but no later than May 27, 2008.
