Property Taxes
Soon, we will begin the process of a Township wide REASSESSMENT. You will be receiving a notice outlining the details very soon, so please watch for it in the mail. Why are we doing a reassessment? As is often the case during times when home values change radically over a short period of time, the "balance" of tax load becomes uneven between homeowners as some homes sell. The best way to resolve this unbalance is either through a REVALUATION or a REASSESSMENT. We have been ordered by the County Tax Office to perform a reassessment. If, during the process, you have any questions surrounding the reassessment, please feel free to contact our Wantage Tax Assessor - Kristy Lockburner at (973) 875-7193.
