The Assessor's Office primary objective is to ensure that all taxable
property located within the Town of Plainfield is assessed in accordance with
applicable law so that every property owner bears an appropriate share
of the total property tax burden. To accomplish this objective, assessors must discover, list and equitably value all property within
their jurisdictions. In addition, they are responsible for reviewing and
approving various forms of property tax relief. The result of these efforts is
the Grand List: a record of all the taxable and tax-exempt property within the
Town of Plainfield. The Grand List
is used in the budget process to establish the mill rate and is also used for
tax billing.
