It is the responsibility of the Assessor to place a fair and
equitable assessment on each of the 6,900 parcels within the Town of Ellicott.
In January 1995, our Assessing Department completed an in-house project that
brought our assessment to full value with total assessed valuation in the town
of Ellicott now placed at over $450 Million Dollars. This Department also
records property sale transactions and administers exemption programs for senior
citizens, veterans, commercial and industrial properties. The Assessing
Department has been integrated into a computerized data base system to maximize
efficiency, respond to inquiries, and to be compatible with New York State
standards.
Assessment
Assessment Information on assessment for properties in the Town,
such as property tax records, tax maps and property tax exemptions is available
to the public during regular office hours at the Assessors Office at Town Hall.
For assistance call 665-5317 (ext. 206). Partial property tax exemptions are
available for veterans and senior citizens. Check with the Veteran’s
Administration for eligibility and for Veteran’s discounts. The senior
citizen's exemption is based on age (minimum 65) and income. Application for
exemptions must be made annually.
Low income Senior Citizens should check with the Assessor
for information as to whether their income makes them eligible for the Standard
Senior
Exemption. Forms can be obtained at the Assessor's
