The Tax Collector's Office collects real property taxes, motor vehicle taxes and personal property taxes. Sewer use and assessment (hook-up) charges are also billed and collected from this office. Questions regarding sewer use and assessment charges should be directed to the WPCA Administrator at 431-2734.
Taxes are assessed by the Tax Assessor and then billed by the Collector and they fund governmental expenses for the fiscal year July 1st to June 30th.
We have no separate tax for educational purposes. Taxes are based on an assessed value determined by the Tax Assessor. This assessment is then multiplied by the Town's mill rate. As of July 1, 2009 the mill rate is 20.00 mills for every $1,000.00 of assessed value.
Please Note: It is the responsibility of the property owner to contact the Tax Collector’s office if you have not received a tax bill. According to State Statutes, failure to receive a tax bill does not remove the obligation to remit taxes and the accrued interest charges.
