New assessments
to be mailed
Nov. 22
PUTNAM — New assessments for all property in the town of Putnam will be mailed out Nov. 22.
As previously notified, the Town of Putnam’s Assessor’s Office has been undergoing its state-mandated Property Revaluation with Tyler Technologies.
Since April 2018, properties have all been reviewed with at least half having had a physical inspection.
Angela Sanchez, assessor, said: “We hope we have kept the taxpayers informed to their satisfaction of the process and current goings on. At this time all properties have been reviewed, recent sales in Putnam have been analyzed and each property has been given an updated Market Value, as of Oct. 1, 2019.”
She said the assessment notices will list the old assessment, (70 percent of the Oct. 1, 2014, market value) and the new assessment (70 percent of the Oct. 1 2019 market value).
Exemptions will not be reflected in the assessments.
Anyone who has applied for the Farm, Forest or Open Space land classifications will see it reflected in their new assessments.
If you feel you may qualify for any of these land classifications, you have until Dec. 31to apply, contact the assessor’s office for an application or visit the assessor’s page on the town website at www.putnamct.us.
There will be instructions on how to appeal your assessment with the revaluation company, by appointment only, on the form.
Appeals will be scheduled for Dec. 2 through Dec. 13 at the Town Hall.
If you have any questions, please always feel welcome to reach out to the assessor’s office at 860-963-6800.
