The assessor is the appointed property assessment official who valuates real property within a city, town, or village’s boundaries. This value is converted into an assessment, which is one component in the computations of real property tax bills. The assessor maintains the municipality’s assessment roll, which contains each property assessment.

The assessor calculates property values, processes tax exemptions, provides real property sales information, and performs data collection of new construction, etc.
