WOODSTOCK — The revaluation process in Woodstock has begun already. Vision Government Solutions assisting the Assessor’s Office in completing the state-mandated revaluation of all real property located in the Town of Woodstock for the Oct. 1, 2016, Grand List.
Data collectors have already begun the task of inspecting individual properties. The data collection phase of the program is expected to be complete by summer, 2016.
A VGSI Data Collector will make an initial visit to each property to verify the information currently on file in the Assessor’s Office.
The Data Collector will ask to briefly inspect the interior if an adult is at home. If no adult is available at the time the Data Collector visits the property, they will only measure the exterior of all buildings. If an interior inspection is not performed during the initial visit to the property, a second visit will be made after 5 p.m. or on a Saturday. If the inspection was still not completed, the property owner will then be notified by mail requesting they call VGSI to make an appointment for an interior inspection. The assessor will be updated regularly as to where the data collectors are currently working.
Although property owners are not required to allow the Data Collector inside homes or businesses, their cooperation is important to the overall success of the project. The only way to truly insure equitable assessments is with accurate information.
The Data Collectors, who will be talking to property owners during the inspection period, do not determine property values. Their only job is to collect and/or verify information on land and structures, including sketches and measurements of buildings. Data Collectors and other appraisal workers will carry identification cards.
