The Assessor’s Office will be closed for the annual Assessor’s School at UCONN from June 4, 2010 through June 8, 2012. The Assessor’s Field Cards, sales books and mapping information will be available at the Town Clerk’s office. Please visit the links below to the GIS mapping and Assessor’s field cards. We are sorry for any inconvenience.

The Web-based Geographic Information System(GIS) mapping system is up and running and can be accessedfrom the link above-“GIS Mapping”.
The GIS systemis a computer-based system capable of mapping, storing, analyzing and assembling geographic data. Diverse data such as parcels, buildings, zoning districts, aerial photos, wetlands, topography, etc. is stored in layers and is accessible as needed by the user. The web-based GIS allows this information which comes from several resources to be available in one location. In the future it offers expansion capability to add different layers/attributes as the needs of the town evolves.
This web-based system is accessible by the public via the link above (“GIS Mapping”) 24 hours a day/7 days a week from any computer with Internet access and works much like Google Maps in many ways. Users are able to produce assessor’s maps, abutters’ lists and check zoning, topography and wetlands among other things.
Each parcel has an information query with data such as ownership, deed reference and appraised values which come from the assessor’s field cards. The clarity of the maps is much improved and aid in the speed in which residents and other users can research parcels and access information once only found at the town hall and only during town hall hours of operation.
Please note: The tax maps are for assessment purposes only and are not valid for use as a survey, legal description or conveyance of property.
