PUTNAM — Rande Chmura, tax assessor, said the town will mail new assessment notices Nov. 24.
The notices will go to all owners of properties, whether the assessment increased or decreased.  The notices will show the 2013 assessment and the new 2014 assessment.  There is an 800 number listed at the end of the notice for owners to call to schedule a hearing with representatives of the revaluation firm.  
Do not use the current mill rate to estimate new taxes, since the mill rate will most likely change in 2015.  All the new assessments will be on the Vision Web site. For those without a computer a listing of all owners and  new assessments will be available in the Assessor’s Office during regular business hours.
There are no exemptions on the notices; these will be applied after the final values are set after hearings, by the Assessor’s office.  This includes any new farm, forest or open space exemptions. They will be applied later. 
The deadline for filing for farm, forest or open space is extended during a revaluation year until Dec. 31. 
Normally they have to file no later than Nov. 1.
