REVALUATION

State law requires a revaluation of all real estate in the Town of Hebron as of October 1, 2001. Revaluation is the equalization of property values by estimating the current market value of all properties in the community. Hebron's last revaluation was effective for the October 1, 1993 Grand List.

At this time the Assessor's office is in the beginning stages of this project. The Town has hired Lesher-Glendinning Municipal Services, Inc. to assist the Assessor in completing the revaluation project.

The Assessor's office would like to take this opportunity to thank all the citizens of Hebron for their interest and cooperation in this very important project.
