PROGRAM INFORMATION & DATA:
 
 The primary function of the Assessor's office is to establish fair market value
 of all taxable Real and Personal Property within the Town of Enfield.  It is
 critical that these values are arrived at in a consistent process to achieve the
 equal distribution of tax responsibility.  Seventy percent of market value for
 the year 2001 will be the basis for the taxation of Real Estate until the next
 revaluation.  Personal Property and Motor Vehicles are reassessed annually and
 also reflect 70% of market value. The Assessor works extensively with Senior
 Citizens by implementing both State and local freeze-circuit breaker programs.
 
 DEPARTMENT GOALS:
 
 Streamline assessment process where possible.
 
 Revise Exemptions, amounts and criteria to comply with State mandated changes.
 
 Continue data analysis programs, reclassification procedure and value analysis.
 
 Discover, list and value new improvements.
