Department Information The Assessor's Office determines the assessed value of each property located in Weston. The assessed value is used to determine the taxes that will be assessed against each property each year. The Assessor also prepares the Grand List, which with the budget, is used to determine the mill rate each year.
The Town of Weston is in the process of conducting its State-mandated revaluation of all real estate in the municipality for the October 2008 grand list. The effect of the revaluation will be reflected in the taxes payable July 2009/January 2010. Recent state legislation requires that revaluations now be performed at least every five (5) years, changed from the previous four (4) year schedule. The last revaluation in Weston was implemented for the 2003 grand list. The new law also requires that all real property be physically inspected every ten (10) years. Weston is due for a full physical inspection for the 2008 revaluation.
The Grand List as of October 1, 2007 is $2,507,428,307. The current (2006) mill rate is 23.39. The 2007 mill rate has not yet been established.
