PRINCETON REVALUATION UPDATE AND FINAL DECISION

Location

For Princeton Township and Princeton Borough Residents - Princeton Fair Tax-Revaluation Group will discuss final decisions on important recommended next steps in challenging the recent Property Revaluation.

The Princeton Borough and Township Revaluation Study Commission Report has just been posted and can be downloaded from here, with appended documents.

While acknowledging that “the 2010 revaluation was not without flaws”,  the commission concludes that “the 2010 revaluation of the Princetons properties is difficult to challenge as improper in its methods or unreasonable in its results”.

Want to see how your property revaluation compares with that of your neighbors?  With the rest of Princeton? The  Google Earth map that was demonstrated by the Princeton Fair Tax Revaluation Group at its last meeting is now available in the Google Earth Gallery for anyone to examine.
